    Hard times create strong men

    Strong men create good times

    Good times create weak men

    Weak men create hard times

    The cycle continues

      I have come to the idea that its, hard times makes scammers which eventually people close fisted with their money are less likely to be scammed.
      But eventually people become loose with their money when they feel they have enough and use it poorly and then we have an abundance of overpaid charlatans.

      And right now we are still seeing so many with such an endless amount of money they can’t even feel the draining of their wealth by scammers. So the cycle is not working so well.

      While this sounds very cute, it’s wrong. Times are always hard for most people. Point to a good time in history and I’ll point to the people whose backs it was resting on.
