The Daejon Love Stock Market - He used a helmet to fake an NFL career. Wall Street uses revenue to fake a business model.

Excerpt:
"Nowadays, revenue can be projected decades years into the future and slapped with a multiple that would have gotten you involuntarily committed in 1995.

Revenue projections are faking you’re an NFL player when you’re not. Like with Daejon, narratives get you “investors”. If you’re a 35 year old dipshit pretending to be someone else with all your free time instead of working an actual job for a living, revenue projections get you laid under false pretenses by women who’d never want to talk to you otherwise.

Net income, on the other hand, is terribly inconvenient. The line of thirsty women dries up quick when it comes down to profit and loss. The second that reality starts inching into the picture, you become the guy no one can stand or wants to talk to.

The modern market would much rather hear that revenue grew 48% than that you lost $2 billion last year.

Nowadays, when investors ask, “Did the company actually make any money?” analysts respond, “Why are you being so negative? Revenue grew 48%!”"

    I really enjoyed reading this article. It was entertaining and on point. Its market savvy is a good lesson for us all. The side note is how AI can lie to us as humans lie to the data base it mines for answers to our queries.
