if I were to invest my college tuition into an SP500 index fund, I’d be far far far better off than what I got for that money. That’s not even considering making informed investments or buying bitcoin lol. If I had that money when I bought bitcoin, I would have had a lot more to invest and I’d own 50x more bitcoin now, enough to not only retire but live very luxuriously and provide for many other people.
Meanwhile I could have gotten the same 4 year education in about 6 months using YouTube…. 🙄
I don’t think it’s all a giant scheme and I don’t think it’s all ignorance. It’s lots of little schemes glued together by ignorance.
