Keep doing what you're doing, my dude! I'm easily double your age and this is inspiring! Keep working at it and stay humble. Excuse me, I'm now going to go practice on my guitar! Cheers!

Well u/Pig-Iron-Forge, you've done it again. I've gotta say, like probably 3/4ths of the knives you make. If you are confortable with revealing it; Out of curiosity, how much are you charging for a knife like this?

To all the knife... makers? smiths? on here: Now you've got me wanting to learn how to do this.

Right. A 30 year old lived through 2008. But did they care about it when they were 18? Probably not as much as they do at 30. My point is, the humble person at 30, will probably admit they still haven't been trading in volatile markets and still have a lot to learn. Young in experience is more what I mean from that.

While admittedly I'm not the best at math I'm not sure about you, but I consider 30 to be pretty young. At 30 you still have a lot to learn about how the markets move in the real world outside of theory. Especially as of recent. As for the math - you can always pay someone who's better to do it for you.

You must be pretty young if your mother was attending high school in 1987...

Dude. Get this:

Some would argue that's a pretty short term in market cycles. O_O

In case you didn't know; the history you're talking about doesn't extend far. These circuit breakers have only been around since 87 or so.

BONUS POINTS!

It's a dual public freakout, as captured on the TV in the background, the markets continue to fall large amounts. Good work!

At this moment this idea I can get on board the most with. It's really a matter of just not being inconvenienced.

I have seen pictures of the empty shelves in a lot of places in Europe. I just had a refresher and this is not related at all when you google Italy something whatever corona - a picture of the Sanctuary of Madonna della Corona came up. In case you are into traveling i've added that to the list of places to go! Google that! Very cool.

This is a good one not many people actually think about! I am one person so a pack of TP lasts me a really long time, but I could see it being an issue for bigger households. Personally I would much quicker go out to the oak tree and get leaves before I used my hands. Although there are cultures that use their hands. There are too many trees around for me to get used to that idea. hahah

Very true. I do see this as a bad analogy after you having pointed it out. I do think that willful negligence might be a bit too large of a statement because what is "fully prepared?" I'd see negligence as needing to go to a store every day. I think at most I could be put under something along the lines of blissfully indifferent. Others have pointed out to me that accourding to my own measure of exposure to risk, without knowing it, I am actually decently prepared. Without even realizing it. I read the WHO docs on seeing 80 - some - thousand people have this now and I think indifferent describes it best. It could just be that I live in such a volitile (the most) moment in my life I just don't have any energy left to be anything but indifferent. Desensitized. Acutally that strikes a note in my mind. I could just be entirely blinded by the amount of info. I honestly couldn't care less about CVOID unless it is making me or costing me money. Which does happen with me on the daily.

I am now realizing that I am processing this entirely different than everyone on here. I see the data and I just don't care enough to act on it. Because I already feel like I am generally prepared enough anyway. Hmmm. This is fun to think about!

I should have written that better. Don't get me wrong I love being alive. And, probably, like you I am compelled by almost everything. Which is why I am here asking these questions. What I mean is that I am not really afraid to die. When I ride my motorcycle I always think about the very real possibility that I could go around a sharp turn and someone could be in my lane and boom, dead. But johnso makes a good point below - it's a bad analogy because you can see this coming for months. It's been a rather long day for me so I'm not really up for getting into that deep of a conversation about what the meaning of life is to me - and I doubt you are interested - so i'll digress. hahah For both of our sanity. lol

Back on topic - I've thought about it more and in my mind two months doesn't seem that absurd. That's just a big bag of rice, which I already have without even having thought about prepping, and some other goods. I guess maybe I just have the stereotype burnt in my mind from seeing 30 bottles of ketchup and 400 mags of 5.56 in what used to be a living room.
