Yep. But I'm so extremely skeptical the "your 401k will always go up by 10%" argument is going to continue to hold for more decades. Eventually the blood they are squeezing out from companies and consumers will run out...

Apple dropped Nvidia after a few years of Nvidia falsifying thermal specifications on GPU chips. It drove apple crazy both with high failure rate of MacBooks where the GPU was desoldering itself and general problem of a hot as fuck bottom.

It isn't discriminating on where you are born. The people in that country can move or overthrow their government to replace it with one that isn't trying to genocide eastern Europe and install dictators in the rest of the world.
