[Replay] Your Consumerism is Killing Me

Skippy and Doogles Talk Investing

This is a replay but still relevant episode from late 2021.

Skippy gets confused as to why Starbucks is adopting the blockchain (and you should be too). Then Skippy and Doogles discuss 3 big breakups this week — General Electric, Toshiba, and Johnson & Johnson are all splitting up their companies. Doogles calls out all of us for perpetuating inflation by buying too much stuff unnecessarily, based on some great reads from Bridgewater Associates and The Atlantic. The episode wraps walking through how much the last few crashes have hurt the market (and the next one won't be better), and how confirmation bias is ruining the world — great piece written by KCP Group called "Racehorses and Psychopaths".
