    Pretty serious. Recessions affect different layers of the economy at different times. First markets crash, but your income and job security stays the same. Then markets plateau, but workers start losing jobs. Finally, markets start to grow again, but you’re still living under the bridge.

    If you’re not a billionaire, this is the best time to invest - you still have a job, but markets are going down rapidly. You won’t have cash later on.










  • Samuel Smith Old Brewery is probably the shittiest company in the world. Or more specifically its owner, Humphrey Smith, is a full on twat. And, unlike most companies, this brewery and all associated businesses are unlimited companies, meaning that Humphrey bears full legal responsibility for everything his companies do.

    Who’s Humphrey Smith? He’s an ultra rich Englishman (but no one knows his wealth size as all of his businesses are privately owned unlimited companies, so he doesn’t have to file financial reports apart from tax related stuff), he owns a pretty large part of Tadcaster town, hundreds of pubs across UK and he doesn’t give a shit about his employees, customers or people living in Tadcaster.

    He has extremely strict rules for his pubs, which include no kids, no mobile phones, no TVs, etc. He regularly tours his pubs, kicks out people found using mobile phones and then fires the whole pub staff on the spot. He also blocked construction of a new bridge in Tadcaster when old one fell apart, because fuck locals.
