And you have all of these wall street houses that are coming out with their predictions, which are forming the consensus that,

of what people are thinking on Wall Street.

And it's based on a guess.

And that's going to move from moment to moment based on what happens.

And by the way, it's like a choose-your-own-adventure book, but there's like 17 different paths to go down.

And depending on which path one person goes down, another 17 open up.

So we don't know.

There's a great clip that's going around social media this morning with people asking kids on spring break about what's going on in Iran.

They have absolutely no idea.

That's kind of everybody's best bet, at least for the short term, because it's going to drive you crazy otherwise.

But it's not fair for you to put yourself in the same category because you actually give caveats.

use information, you educate yourself so they're at least informed opinions.

The difference that we had between back then, I think I was in high school back then, is that we didn't have social media.

So now everybody who was an expert on tariffs last week is now an expert on Iran and geopolitics this week.

Next week, they're going to be an expert on AI.

And you're just hearing all of the noise that everybody feels empowered to just put out into the universe.

You know, we used to have diaries, write down our thoughts.

Now we just say, hey, we want everybody to know everything we're thinking.

There is no off filter.

And it's overwhelming.
