I mean how can you forget the $2.17 gas a gallon and my investments doubling in 4 years. I can't forget that and won't.

I went from struggling to survive to having almost $1M in assets on my meager salary. When he announced not to sell your stocks, because he of course didn’t have control of his portfolio at the time so he had to signal to his portfolio management somehow so he made a broad public announcement (haha), I moved what little cash I had into stocks and it all did really well. Not mad at him

My net worth doubled in 4 years with Trump president. I can't be mad. Now I'm watching the same investments dwindle. Now I'm mad.

Covid, which Trump and his minions totally mishandled, ruined our finances. And I’m still mad. That man should have never been within 500 miles of the WH and God-willing never again. What a disaster.

Exactly what are you talking about?

Printing trillions of dollars for extended unemployment supports that paid more than people’s actual jobs for far too long, causing inflation so extreme that the Fed had to raise rates to the highest in decades. Get a clue.

Haven’t gone to Starbucks in months and haven’t been to a restaurant in 3 weeks and I don’t feel any temptation to go back. Travel is overrated as well. My computers and phone can easily last another few years.

I’m not even struggling to afford the inflated prices I’m just fed up with the tipflation, greedflation, excuseflation and the sub par service as of late.

Good luck!

The service is just crap, no staff at all. Uber charges crazy service fees. I have plenty of money and not cheap but its just not worth the $$ anymore.

+1 There's so much crap food and service these days. I still go out some, but I don't take the whole family and I really care where I go. If I'm spending so much, then I'm less willing to try somewhere that I'm not confident will have good food and good service.

I’m not even going to begin to resume travel until the kids are outbid the house and I’m not stuck traveling when everyone else is. And don’t get me started on restaurants. Quality is in the shitter and prices are sky high.

I did safaris (3 different parks) in Kenya this August and it was so over run with obnoxious environmentally disrespectful Chinese tourists it makes for a miserable experience. Even the Kenyans were disgusted.

OMFG. You are a racist and what do you mean with your last sentence?? Even the Kenyans were disgusted. Are you implying that they don’t get disgusted as easily as other nationalities/races?

I think they're saying the people who are used to tourists and see questionable behavior were surprised by what they were witnessing.

+1 I didn't see anything racist in that post either.
