@DF is right. Back in the 1950’s young people said “why should I go to college?”, “Why should I plan for retirement?”, etc. because we are all going to die in the nuclear war anyway! Well, the nuclear war never came and what kind of life did those folks have? Poor, I expect.
What if you followed @JT’s plan when the stock market crashed in 1987, 1999, and/or 2008? The economy came back, although I readily admit it may not the next time. Nobody knows. Be careful that you don’t shoot yourself in the foot with this strategy!
