  • So, I’ll preface this by saying supernatural ‘horror’ is not my thing. I only watched Jujutso Kaisen because it got such rave reviews but TBH I didn’t get much out of it. Felt to me like a bunch of nonsense being yelled at opponents until some cool anime action happened which was good enough to get to the end of S2. Still, I don’t want to repeat that experience.

    That said: What about Dan Da Dan is giving it such high ratings? Do you think I’d find this series worth it? What is the expected age group for the show? I haven’t checked it out simply because the series description gave me a hard pass for the aforementioned reason.
















  • From my perspective you can’t bet both sides and still expect gains on average.

    Statistically you can. Firstly, when you invest you can limit how much that could be lost right off the bat by how you invest and via what amount. For example: BUYing $20k in 2 opposing stocks, split 10k each. Max possible loss? All $20k.

    Let’s say the Index goes up 10% which suggests on average that $20k is now $22k, or $11k/stock.

    In actuality stock A loses 50% but stock B gains 60%. Had you luckily invest solely in the right stock (B) with all 20k you would have made $12k. Badly (stock A)? Lost $10k. By hedging you dilute max potential gains to mitigate catastrophic loses.
