Nobody talks about people who just quietly do things and don't tell anybody. All the talk is about dramatic stuff happening.
But other than that, putting 5% rather than betting your entire life on it still suggests some sort of expectation that this might actually be good for something -- unless you're the rare person who actually spends significant amounts of money mostly at random.
If by chance you are, then the conversation isn't really about you. You're just allocating a percentage to a dice throw without any other reasoning, hoping it might actually bring profit by pure chance.
- bartvk 4y ago> allocating a percentage to a dice throw without any other reasoning Do you feel the same about stocks?
- dale_glass 4y agoSure, it's a possibility. There has to be people out there whose entire reasoning for buying a stock is "I have no clue what this company does or why this is valuable, but a whole bunch of people are talking about it, so maybe they're onto something, so I'll throw some disposable income at it just in case".
