The market has gone up 30% in just the last year, and that has nothing to do with high-growth startups.

Amazon has doubled in just the last two years. So did Netflix, Apple, etc., all long past their IPOs.

This was all available to John Q Public. Yet all I hear are complaints.

So, to paraphrase, the market in it's infinite generosity allows paupers to invest in stocks as well as billionaires?
