Many companies have filed chapter 11 and subsequently survived and thrived. Chapter 7 would indeed suck but I’m financially prepared for any of it.

In maybe wrong… and if so .. fine .. but I’m willing to Bet in 10 years from now .. the people who ‘Remain seated…. Remain seated…remain seated’

will be juts fine.. and possibly even better then the ones who ‘evacuate… evacuate.. evacuate’

it’s a calculated risk.. but this isn’t the ‘seniors’ first rodeo ..

you can panic and flip the seat belt sign on and freak out .

ill drink my coffee.. I’ve navigated many many storms. I will this one as well.
