Happy Masters everyone. I am duty bound, for the 12th year in a row (the Masters is about tradition) to post my story about the time I tried to etch my name in Augusta history forever (by eating every concession item in one day) web.archive.org/web/20160302...

I wrote about how all this MAGA tariff support is just like finance QAnon (even when Trump backs down). Trust the plan. Follow the crumbs. Trump's in control. A golden age is nigh. This is how people break from reality now. (gift) www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

my humble opinion is that if your job is to manage risk and make big decisions about markets and you screw up your judgement this badly you should be disqualified from ever managing money and also shunned completely from speaking on the subject in public again

seeing this going around and a lot of ppl are misinterpreting it as Lutnick saying Americans are gonna do the assembly stuff. But in some ways it’s even wilder than that. He says the jobs would be automated! It’s not about jobs, it’s just…crashing the economy!

historically the bad faith stuff quickly moves into bedrock belief territory. the way all these reality breaks usually go is that once one of these groups is cornered and hitched to a disastrous idea, they double down and build a fantasy world around it bc it’s easier than admitting they were wrong

financial advice in a weird time: -- develop a plan -- find friends who support you -- preferably 10 of them -- steal $160 million from the Bellagio, the Mirage, and the MGM Grand -- yes those are Terry Benedict's casinos -- get your wife back -- one of the friends should be Don Cheadle btw simple
