Huh.

He is self-aware at least, I'll give 'em that.

So uh... I had to look up the term 'CJ Degree.'

... Criminal Justice.

As in... learn 'industry practices' to be qualified as a corrections officer (jail/prison guard), private detective, cop, paralegal, etc.

The first thing that came up was a particular college's course overview and goals checklist... one of the goals was ...

Attend a financial literacy workshop.

So not only is this person a moron, not only is this person in all likelihood a prison guard, not only did they go to college to become a prison guard, they shouldn't have even graduated with their degree.

As a person from a white trash neighborhood, who got real degrees, first in the family to go to college... I have not gotten white trash vibes this strong in quite a long time.

Unfortunately there’s a lot of criminal justice jobs that only require a two year technical degree. Depending on location and school it’s likely that it was “check the boxes” kind of program for a field that is understaffed.

Ah, the prison-industrial-degree mill complex.

Love it.

Fucks over everyone, in so many ways.

... A good portion of the families I grew up next to just actually had half of their family as criminals, in prison, usually for consistent DUIs or drug charges and domestic abuae...

... and the other half were prison/jail guards/staff.

Thats what I mean by 'white trash.'

People that unironically described themselves as 'wiggers' back in the 00s.

May she sell at the bottom and buy back after the recovery.

"We have officially been unburden"

This lady word good!

[-] jballs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago

Unburdened of her life's savings, apparently.

[-] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 weeks ago

Just put your money into stocks! Buying 10 shares of Apple right now would cost $2,000 but once it bounces back to the price it was at before the dip you'd have $2,500! That's a profit of $500 in just a few years!

Pure karma lol.

Maybe she need to stop her dumb whining woke and socialist (pension) crap. We live in capitalism, it is just business. You have been unburden by pension.

the whole right wing outrage over mayor wu giving condolences to the family of the attacker is wild when you realize that she was doing that because first responders killed him without any other casualties or injuries to victims.

[-] BigMacHole@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago

STOP being Mean to this WOMAN! She CLEARLY was Taken in by Trump's Promises! She thought ONLY TRANS KIDS would be effected! And BROWN PEOPLE! She had No Idea WHITE PEOPLE would ALSO be effected! Cut her some SLACK!

Wanted to try the Herman Cain Award style post of a Trump faithful realizing their face has been eaten. This Trumpette retired recently, doesn't know much about how the stock market works, but is seeing her retirement funds go up in smoke. Helpfully, a fellow MAGAt advised her just to buy the dip. Not sure what money she's supposed to do that with...

[-] i_stole_ur_taco@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 weeks ago

This was a GLORIOUS format! I missed the Herman Cain award mini stories and this was a breath of stank air.

[-] jballs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago

Not gonna lie, I used to binge the Herman Cain Awards like I was huffing paint.

So I've been waiting quite some time to time the market and said fuck it one week ago. Put in 6k euros in etf. Then shit like this happens lmao. European stock is affected less than NA ones but still.

Lost almost my week's income on this stuff. But now's the time to pump it. Gonna put 2k euros in it every few days until it's at 30k euros original value.

We're all such emotional creatures, so... Gimme those stocks 😎 gimme gimme gimme

Now is not the time to buy...... Dont try and catch a falling knife. Let it hit the floor before you decide to pick it up. Tariffs will take weeks until they really start curbing consumer spending, we have a long ways to go.
