10	Male Hamstering is our coping mechanism for time wasted and avoiding risk averse activities. He just fucked up the phrasing, what he meant to say is male hamstering is our coping mechanism for avoiding risk.	/r/TheRedPill	17/07/15 07:22 AM
8	Male Hamstering is our coping mechanism for time wasted and avoiding risk averse activities. Being risk averse means avoiding risk (having an aversion to risk), avoiding risk averse activities is a double negative and means the opposite of what I assume you are trying to say.	/r/TheRedPill	17/07/15 06:46 AM
3	"Red Pill extremely misogynistic" says Abby Johnston on Tech News Today--about 7:30 in video Typical slight of hand, discussing the blatantly racist subreddits then equating theredpill to them.	/r/TheRedPill	17/05/15 12:07 AM

13	Working out 101 for the complete noobs Set goals, just going to the gym can be one of the most mundane things ever if you aren't working towards anything. Aim for a 2 plate bench, 3 plate squat, 4 plate deadlift, 15 deadhang pullups, 50 chest to ground push ups etc I would also recommend doing another physical activity besides just lifting, a martial art / boxing, rock climbing.	/r/TheRedPill	29/01/15 04:33 AM

1	Rant: Why can't I change? I swear I've seen this same exact post multiple times, anyone else?	/r/TheRedPill	25/01/15 02:25 PM
3	Let's talk finances Haha now we agree 100%. If there is a big spill he is gone!	/r/TheRedPill	12/01/15 01:43 AM
3	Let's talk finances Replying to the wrong person I think, your post supports what I was saying.	/r/TheRedPill	12/01/15 12:33 AM
3	Let's talk finances Definitely possible. I would be surprised if it doesn't hurt them but then again it all depends on what they rise to. I would guess initially 2-3%. Thanks for a good debate.	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 11:48 PM
1	Let's talk finances What I should have said is be careful of arithmetic vs geometric means. We had problems in my country with funds advertising arithmetic means, so regulations were put in place to prevent it, in my experience it can happen. You do not believe a rise from 0% will affect equities?	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 11:16 PM
1	Let's talk finances No, I was merely trying to point out that they can be by people, I only brought that up to support my point about how a rate rise may hurt their return. I mentioned it because I foresaw 'but if it earns 10% each year why does it matter?'. Also you are 100% correct, I do not know and I do not believe I ever said I did? I said there is some data to suggest it may happen soon and this would support utilizing alternative investments. By hold off I did not mean stuff a mattress or anything like that,…	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 10:35 PM
2	Let's talk finances Going off on wild tangents with you has been fun but I have stuff to do now. I am glad there are people on here who care enough about the facts that they will engage me in this type of debate, so thank you for that. I don't care about silver, I only left that in because my post was originally going to be a reply to another one. I believe the term you are looking for is speculation or hedging? It certainly is. I only put a tiny bit of money into it for a bit of fun, historically it is undervalued…	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 10:20 PM
2	Let's talk finances I didn't say world, I said in a very large area of the developed world. But hey, you read investopedia, thanks for playing. Best of luck to you. To anyone who has bothered to read this far along and hopefully has better reading comprehension than red_account: Is the stock market a good investment? Yes. Will a rate increase cause prices to drop? Yes, look at the maths behind the dividend discount model. The free cash flow model (and any others) will confirm this, but are more complex to do, howev…	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 09:51 PM
0	Let's talk finances IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE TULIPS PAY A 5% DIVIDEND IF YOU BUY THEM AT $100 AND A RATE RISE CAUSES THE TULIP TO BE WORTH $50-75, IF NOT WORSE. I went to the best business school in a whole 1st world region of the world, I know what I am talking about, you do not. So please tell me, your necessary background you claimed to have before, what is it? Online readings? Youtube videos?	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 09:46 PM
2	Let's talk finances I said I was not going to make another post but your stupidity has baited me into it. We can run through every single valuation model you like (NPV,IRR,FCF,DCF) and interest rates will affect every single one of them. I am now convinced you have no clue what you're talking about beyond what you might pick up on the news. Tulipmania logic does apply when earnings growth is all fueled by money they're borrowing at close to 0%!	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 09:37 PM
3	Let's talk finances Why should the Dutch have worried about investing in tulips at their all time high? There is no doubt that stock prices are at all time highs largely due to ~0% interest rates. The reason to be concerned is that if the fed does raise rates soon (within a year or 2), which ending QE signals they will, is you will see a large drop in index prices, aka a capital loss. Look at a company with a beta of 1 (you have the required background so I'm sure you know what that means), which is all equity fina…	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 09:22 PM
3	Let's talk finances I said be WEARY of investing at an all time high, go burn all your money on a fire for all I care. QE is supposedly over, which means that the fed is at least signalling they think the USA economy has recovered, thus rates should rise accordingly. Did I ever claim to know when it will happen? No, or else I would be giving specific advice on fixed income securities. Would you like me to run you through the maths / economic logic? At no point did I ever say the stock market is BAD. I think it is a…	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 08:56 PM
2	Let's talk finances It may blow your mind to learn this, but there are countries outside of the USA. Even more mindblowing is that in these countries you can get a whole 3 year degree devoted to finance. Granted it is more common to call it business school here, business school in the USA means something very different, thus I used finance school.	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 08:35 PM
0	Let's talk finances Do you have a finance or economics degree? I can run you through the maths but you seem to be misunderstanding to such a degree it does not seem useful for my time if you do not.	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 08:32 PM
2	Let's talk finances One of the first things they teach you in finance school is that a market portfolio is only as good as the market proxy. Going all the way back to the 1800s is silly, the market is nothing like that. I would argue going back any further than the GFC (~2007) is useless too, since the market conditions are vastly different now. Using your same calculator, going back to 2007 and including inflation (which matters in reality), the actual return has been ~5% or about half of that magic 10%. There is …	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 07:59 PM
4	Let's talk finances There is a difference between a geometric mean and an arithmetic mean. The index funds quote their arithmetic mean for this very reason. If you invest $10 and the market goes up 10% in year 1, down 5% year 2 then back up 10% in year 3, your arithmetic mean return is (0.1-0.05+.1)/3 = 15%. But that is not the way compound interest works. When you invest your $10 in year 1 it becomes $11, then when the market drops 5% it becomes $10.45, then when it goes up 10% in year 3 you have $11.495, which is…	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 07:41 PM
0	Let's talk finances There is a difference between genuine growth or synergies increasing prices and prices being artificially propped up by 0% interest rates, do you understand that? I said be weary of investing now because it is fairly likely you will see a significant capital loss when rates do eventually rise, do you understand that? Run some numbers through the dividend discount model and see how that affects stock prices, even with a 2% increase in rates, let alone 5%. Silver is far below it's historical avera…	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 07:32 PM
7	Let's talk finances Historically the S&P500 has averaged about 10% but this is an arithmetic mean, not a geometric mean (.1+0.08+0.12/3, instead of 0.10.080.012, which is how compound interest works). The reason I bring this is up is because the major indices are at an all type high now due to the Keynesian games the fed in the US are playing. An index is a basket of stocks in a fund, this is called diversification. The way you can value a stock is via the dividend discount model: Price at time 0 = Dividend forecas…	/r/TheRedPill	11/01/15 05:47 PM

222	First woman to make Virginia Beach's SWAT department sued the department for millions of dollars.. Now the officers named in the suit are now suing the city, maintaining that the "discrimination" she faced was merely due to her inability to perform her duties. Seems like a typical case of women wanting equal outcomes, not equal opportunities. She wanted to be the 'you go gurl' SWAT member and be lauded for her amazing capabilities, the only problem was she didn't have them. So, because she couldn't do what the men could do (which made no sense to her because men and women are 100% the same, right??) she must have been discriminated against. *fixed spelling	/r/TheRedPill	27/11/14 05:17 AM

11	Does Height Matter? Short 'PUA' Cupid Shmupid gets some answers to this question (Video). Here's the pro tip: Hit the town with a good looking, muscly guy who is over 6'5" and see the reactions he gets from women. YES THEY FUCKING CARE. It's the first and most important sign of being alpha; being bigger than other men.	/r/TheRedPill	27/09/14 04:23 AM
