> Nothing prevents people from investing also in other companies if they feel like

I thought you just said that this isn't a viable option for most people? Now it is on the table?

> are you implying they are "too dumb" to consider the possibility

For what it's worth, reading through this thread, it seems like you were the one who claimed most people don't have "market knowledge"...

Oh please, you don't even know anymore what's your argument, do you? You just hate to be reminded that the bubble you live in is in now way accurately reflective of the reality most people live in.

I am not the person you were arguing with, so sure maybe I don't know what the other guys argument is lol

I was just commenting on what I was seeing in your comments - sorry that I struck a nerve..

I'm not sure what bubble you think I'm living in, given how little you know about me. But in "your bubble" it doesn't seem like there's a way to reconcile two very antithetical propositions: 1- people don't have the resources/knowledge to invest, but also 2- they can use their excess resources to diversify away from having significant investment with solely their employer. How does that work?

And just to re-iterate, no one besides you has brought up the intelligence of "most people" when it comes to the ability to invest. So...?
