last.fm has one for music. But I actually prefer talking to people and getting actual recommendations

I don’t think you quite understand what I mean. You can’t extrapolate from the last 3 years. What you can extrapolate from is longer periods of time, where we occasionally see assets going generally down for some time. So you have maybe 90% chance of your stock portfolio going up in the next 5 or 10 years, and 10% chance of it going down (rough numbers but the point holds).

So you can end up in a situation where you lose money, but it’s unlikely. If you are very risk averse, you would prefer a 0% increase over these odds.

All kinds of low risk things go down occasionally. Think of the 2008 financial crash for example. On average, or over a long time, you are very likely to make gains. But that’s not nevessarily true for shorter periods like 10 years even if you invest in low risk assets.

Edit: I also invested some of my student loans in Finland. Or officially, my other income that was freed up due to the loan ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Good luck not hiring a scammer…

Well digital art did not, but photography surely did. And eventually it was for the better for everybody.

yeah that’s why we need to make it open

Sure, keep wasting your time buddy

Well, have you considered that I don’t need to write stupid long overly polite emails myself anymore?

As a bisexual guy, this is not at all my experience with non-straight men. They seem to be mostly cool and well socialized.

Terrible pseudo art is what you get from hollywood and big music studios right now, for the most part.
