There’s not much I can say that I know about the stock market except for the age old saying that “what goes up, must come down.” Or, at least, that’s what I’d of said two weeks ago before I downloaded the Robinhood app, finally watched The Wolf of Wall Street, and saw that Amazon just bought out Whole Foods for upwards of 13 billion dollars. Holy shit.
(Also, I’m having some serious doubts about that silly old saying, because honestly? I don’t think Amazon, Google, or even Microsoft will ever crash and burn. At least not within the next millennium. They pretty much own our asses.)
So recently I finally upgraded my cell phone from an HTC M7 (god rest it’s soul) to a Galaxy S8 because, well, my phone was on the verge of death. Like, for real. I put off getting a new phone for years because I dreaded having to move all 3 of my apps and 12 contacts–I’m that lazy. Regardless, after dropping my 4+ year old phone and actually breaking the screen for the first time in my 10+ years of owning phones, it was time to suck it up and deal with it.
