sorry tankie id love to debate you but im too busy focusing on other commitments and reading meditations by marcus aurelius

i can not overemphasize how marcus aurelius was just roman obama

At least his stoicism should come in handy when he loses it all.

imagine having "conviction" in yet another failing retail store. wonder if there are any circuit city true believers out there

also why did he put "BBBYQ" when the Q refers to it being delisted

I'm more of an epicurean investor. I'm not investing in a "dying company" because I don't think death is actually real and never experienced.

I've read Marcus Aurelius' meditations before. The main thing I took away from it is that struggling to get out of a nice warm bed on a cold morning is a universal constant that blights all of humanity.

“A man’s greatness lies not in wealth and station, as the vulgar believe, not yet in his intellectual capacity, which is often associated with the meanest moral character, the most abject servility to those in high places and arrogance to the poor and lowly; but a man’s true greatness lies in the consciousness of an honest purpose in life, founded on a just estimate of himself and everything else, on frequent self-examination, and a steady obedience to the rule which he knows to be right, without troubling himself, as the emperor says he should not, about what others may think or say, or whether they do or do not do that which he thinks and says and does.” ― Marcus Aurelius

It never stops being funny watching these money grubbers pretend to be Stoics

Pure unfiltered idealism

I prefered the story of Nero and his horsy
