I am talking about the psychology of rich who live in a corrupt society
and pay for play government. And how that impacts their confidence
and the stock market.

I believe my input can enlighten others.

I can only speak to what I know.

If there are other factors to consider and you have expertise
in those areas it would be better to speak to that instead of lecturing
others on their areas of expertise. And telling others what to post or not post.
