GM GM. I'm DB.

I've seen a lot of sh*t go down in financial markets. Like what, you might ask? Good question. The Mexican Peso crisis ('94), the so-called Asian Flu ('97), the LTCM hedge fund implosion ('98), the Dot Com crash ('00 and '01), the Great Recession ('08), the Flash Crash ('10), the Debt Ceiling meltdown ('11), the Crypto Winter ('18-'19), and must I even mention 2022's treachery?

So am I just a half-empty Old Fashioned, negatively obsessed with market blowups? No, I wear a "Positive is How I Live" bracelet, if you must know. Here's why the market blowups matter. Because if you do not embrace the razor's-edge reality of the potential imminent demise of your investment capital at any moment (now 24/7 with crypto!), you are probably going to get rekt. Like your face-ripped-off rekt. The good news? YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GET REKT.
