Paradoxish posted:Good financial advice is usually pretty specific to an individual's particular situation. If you're reasonably well off then you can probably afford to take general purpose advice and make it work, but even otherwise good advice can be actively harmful to someone that's living paycheck to paycheck or struggling to pay their bills.

ugh its Troika posted:Nothing in any way related to communism except "hang anyone who comes around trying to preach it, then bury their skull upside down at a crossroads" is practical advice. The Marxists had their chance with the world and they hosed it up. Ok that's great and all but I'm still gonna read Marx and eat the rich and you can't stop me
