‘Pain is a Great Teacher’

[Overnight]

Taking losses is really easy with OPM. Because you still get paid and can live life.

Yes, pain is a great teacher...Until you go broke. With OPM, that does not happen.

I don't believe in this at all, because of some failure only then some one is going to start working back? I believe it is created during one's young years as a child, people saying no you can't for one reason or another, you either sit there and accept or you revolt and show them they are wrong. Most people in USA are couch potatoes that "make a living" who rather watch other's struggle to "make a life", you persevere when all you see nothing but walls knowing you can find the path of less traveled, you know that truth is the hardest chose but it is easiest to remember but it takes longer to accomplish, and duck tape are for those who think it best way to make fixes when they too lazy to spend time to correctly fix.

I deal with pain daily, seldom take meds for pain, but I see pain as a reward for more time to accomplish more in my life, it is when you don't have pain-you will worry that it has gone dead. But various pains with either give you more in life or take away all that you are, depends on you.

Thank you

Told you https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...ter-pure-alpha-fund-lost-4-9-in-first-half-ft

Bridgewater Associates’ flagship Pure Alpha fund lost 4.9% in the first half, one of its worst performances in two decades

Ray' DNA has left the company except in his specific area and they are pretty much going to destroy it with corporate cattiness.

The question is whether the catty politburo will recognize this before it's too late.

Pain, anger, frustration, revenge, anxiety and all other negative emotions is a great destroyer.

calm, alertness is a great teacher.

What is corporate cattiness?

What is corporate cattiness?

Standard office politics. Bridgewater of course has office politics but the focus on what is true regardless of presentation was what helped see through the bullshit. Now my understanding is that they have relaxed that restriction and force you to be politically correct, or nice about it.
