If all money is debt then why is there a metric shitload more value in assets than there is total debt?

Because a change in asset value is arbitrary. It always has been. The arbitrary starts with inflation, then there's the stockmarket, then there's scarcity, then there's fashion, then there's the wow factor, fuck it, the list is almost endless when it comes to what values an asset. The money that purchased those assets created some amount of debt that can never be repaid without printing more money. Catch 22.

Then if you answered the questions perhaps I might learn some, eh?

As it is you sound like someone who hasn't got a clue about fuck all and slides into oblique criticism in order to disguise it.

I/we have tried many times . . .

But there is a bit of a blockage your end

And forsomeone whom apparently hasnt a clue . . I seem to be right a fair bit .
Snip

I think you might be describing yourself there

A case in point was your attempt to use entropy and money . . .which showed a complete lack of both subjects

But do carry on it gives a lot of people hours of enjoyment

Think Ocean has you pegged bro.

Asset value is arbitrary? Really? So it's got nothing to do with what people reckon an asset's worth?

Have you told everyone that? Only, they're all labouring under the misapprehension that shit's worth what they're willing to pay for it.

Make up your mind, either the money was pulled out of some fairy banker's arsehole and it's worthless or it's associated with and quantifies the value of assets. Which is it again?

WOW, you misunderstood what I said... but to be fair, I can change that by removing one word and removing the question mark from your opening WTF. It's still only 1 reason that affects asset value.

Yes I have. They understand what I mean when I say that people shouldn't be paying for what they're going to get anyway. lol, aye, I'm sure that's what goes through someone's head when they're negotiating. Personality, financial clobber and sellers circumstance aren't slightly higher up the tree than, what the asset is worth.

Both.

Today's topic, does discussing a thing by primarily trying to be 'right' make you a cunt?

Who's trying to be right? and no... well yes, but only when you choose to believe that someone is trying to be right and therefore attaches the label cunt to them in response.

It seems far more likely that you misunderstood what you said.

Apparently not. I tried to clear it up and you decided to continue your way of seeing it. Coolz.

Possibly . . if the listener doesnt like the answer

If their whole life has been built on a fraud and when its too late you find out the powers that be have been telling ya porkies

Must hurt . . Specially if ya bought into it hook line and sinker

How do the actions of the listener affect whether the speaker is a cunt or not?
