The stock market was never built for you.
I know that's hard to hear.
But once you see how the game actually works you can't unsee it.

2/ Growing companies don't pay good dividends.
Because they reinvest everything into growth.
A company paying a big dividend has essentially stopped growing.
They have too much cash and nowhere to put it.
So they throw it to shareholders.
That's not a reward.
That's a sign of stagnation.

3/ When companies lose money shareholders take the hit.
That's the risk you're told to accept.
But the CEOs and their inner circle?
They never accept that same risk.
Remember COVID?
CEOs sold shares and stepped down right before the crash.
Then collected bonuses after the bailout.
Who took the loss?
You did.

4/ And here's the part that should make everyone furious.
If it gets bad enough the government steps in with a bailout.
But not with their money.
With yours.
Taxpayer money.
From people who couldn't even afford to invest in the first place.
So you lose as a shareholder.
And lose again as a taxpayer.
Rigged both ways.

5/ @JackMallers said Robinhood and Coinbase are becoming predictive market casinos.
He's right.
It's the natural next step.
When you've already figured out how to take the everyday person's money through stocks the next move is just to make the gambling more obvious.
At least in a casino you know the house always wins.
In stocks they hide it.

6/ Think about what shareholders actually do.
They don't run the company.
They don't build the product.
They don't serve the customer.
They inflate the numbers.
And provide liquidity for the ones at the top to exit.
You're not an investor.
You're the last one holding the bag.
Hoping to get out before the CEO does.

7/ Companies should derive their value from actual profit.
If they sell a lot they make good money.
Simple.
But that system doesn't let them extract wealth from everyday people.
So instead they created stocks.
And Robinhood.
And crypto casinos.
And bailouts funded by people too poor to invest.
The exit from all of it?
Bitcoin. Self custody. Sound money.
Not your keys. Not your coins.
Not your shares. Not your wealth.
Stack sats. Opt out. 🟠

The system got us so divided that even all of us that know bitcoin is the answer still argue on how exactly it’s the answer
