This GameStop story is fun, but I feel one branch of the take machine needs trimming right quick — poor people don't *buy stocks, & I'm not sure we can say anyone has made money 🙄🤔
Let's just celebrate that finance bros have lost a tonne of cash 🙃
* I'm not trying to be a gatekeeper here, individual people can & do invest maybe some people who qualify as poor by income cut-off or whatever are involved in GameStop but if they make money it likely won't lift them out & still could leave them worse off — still gotta sell 🤔
