- Kranar 5y agoI never criticized the dummy part of the statement and there's nothing wrong with being ignorant of a topic, everyone has to start learning from somewhere. I criticized the broke part of the statement. Rhetorical or facetious or otherwise, someone who is broke who doesn't have a sufficient understanding of finance has no way of making money off of an article they don't understand.
