Zerohedge
Even for a curmudgeon like myself, zerohedge and its persistent negativity is enough all ready. I have decided to no longer frequent the site as I believe it has a negative impact on emotions and general well-being. The world is imperfect, get over it! It is what it is, whether we choose to believe it or not. Anyone else reach a similar conclusion?

Yes, yes, a thousand times yes! Good for you, budd.

Re: Zerohedge
Yep... I asked about ZeroHedge here several months ago and someone described it as "Doomer Porn" which is perfect. I rarely go there anymore, although it was ZH and similar sites that prompted me to question my investing non-strategy which eventually led me to the PP and this site.
Re: Zerohedge
Nice work, Budd! You won't regret it.
Me too. I stopped reading it about two years ago and have been much happier ever since. ZH is designed to stoke people's emotions and belief systems — as well as their investments. (The PP is agnostic on the other hand, which is a much more balanced way to live).

Re: Zerohedge
Good for you! I reached the same conclusion about 18 months ago. That site is the http equivalent of cancer.

Re: Zerohedge
Thank you all. I deleted my bookmarks (iPhone and laptop) and am working to erase the site from memory.
