In wine, there is wisdom. In beer, there is strength. In water, there is bacteria.

“Americans” Didn’t pick them. They are presented to us as a fait accompli, and we must choose. Like being allowed to pick the least painful sex toy: we will be screwed, but we get the illusion of choice.

Yes. And take the whopping $5,000 saved for college, and just buy Microsoft at the IPO. No one has ever gotten rich by putting money in a savings account.
