Cool - so a non-answer and condescending dismissal of genuine questions.
Lots of people talk about finances online. See r/personalfinance or r/financialindependence. It’s a good way to learn.
- reaperducer 5y agoI am not "lots of people." I have no interest in being "lots of people," or in proving myself to strangers on the internet. I cannot convey 50 years of my financial life, experience, and history into what fits in an internet post. Anyone who can probably has a very narrow view of finance. I can say that I know how to manage my finances, and my accountant agrees with my methods and track record. But if you think Reddit is the route to financial literacy, I can understand why you don't understand.
- vangelis 5y agoThat response is awfully unconstructive and dismissive. Perhaps you're able to articulate why you believe Reddit, specifically r/personalfinance and other reasonable boards, are bad, no?
- recursive 5y agoI don't necessarily think Reddit is a good route to financial literacy. Nor do I know of a better route. Despite (or because?) of all that, I still think the question was reasonable. If you don't want to answer the question, that's fine. But you don't have to be so antagonistic about it.
