Participant[quote=jstoesz]Why would Ford be a publically traded company if not for greater acces to capital?
[/quote]
Possibly because at some point the Ford family wanted cash rather than stock in their own company. And then the person who had the Ford stock wanted something else, and so on . . . Although I understand the value of access to capital, at times it seems like the stock market is a bit of a game of hot potato, with everyone hoping to buy low and sell high, while knowing that that is impossible.

Participantdefinitely true.
To bastardize a great Churchill quote on democracy…
Many forms of (capital allocation) have been tried and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that (the stock market) is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that (stock market) is the worst form of (capital allocation) except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.

ParticipantSo those who prefer active income vs passive income prefer people working till they die vs being able to retire. After all, once you retire, you’re not making active income anymore.
