    2023 Stock Market Thread

    I have some assets in the stock market, but I have portfolios only in the local stock market. I do not have access to international stock markets such as the New York Stock Exchange. That's because our law does not allow us to invest in foreign countries and foreign companies.

    Gambling

    After losing a lot of money in gambling, I stopped. These days I do not gamble. People are addicted to gambling for two reasons, one, they want to get rich without doing hard work, and two, they want a shortcut road to success.

    China jails man who scared chickens to death

    The man was not sentenced to prison just for scaring chickens to death, he was sentenced for causing financial damages to another person. When you cause financial damage, I think it is a crime in almost all countries.

    Day or Night Sleeper?

    I am a night sleeper. I always try to go to bed at 10 and wake up at 5. Sometimes when I get time, I also enjoy a 30-minute daytime siesta. I find 30 minutes of power nap very liberating, however, usually, I don't get that luxury.
