Moral of the story - just have money and you'll be fine

This and the "stock up on X before prices go up" comments piss me off.

Must be nice having a bunch of money you can spend at the drop of a hat.

how is a "bunch of money" determined. Closed end funds are as low as $7 per share right now. USOY is just over $10. Are you saying you don't have less than $10? C'mon man! Stop. Nobody on this site is a trillionaire. You're being emotional instead of logical

You're not being logical. "You are poor but you can invest a tenner, so it's not all bad"

That's not a logical thing to say to people.
