Alexander Lorenzo argues that bear markets separate serious investors from casual ones. Those who generate cash flow, make disciplined trades, and understand their finances survive and build wealth. Bull market investors who just hold without strategy get eliminated.
Every rich person I've ever known gets excited when the bear market comes because that's when real diligence gets exposed. In the bear market, that's where true winners are marked. Whether you're a trader or a project builder, the ones that survive the bear market, that can generate cash flow, generate revenue, or make successful trades in a bear market are the ones that survive. The burnouts that only were there for the bull cycle, they all die in the bear market. Every single time, every rich person I've ever known gets excited when the bear market comes because that's when real diligence gets like exposed. The people that are really diligent, they win. The people that have been flying by the seat of their pants, acting like they're investors but they're not—you know how many people I talk to where they're like, "Yeah, I'm just holding, bro," and they're like, "But Bitcoin's gonna double," and I'm like, "Bro, but you have no investment strategy. You're holding and you have—you don't even know your personal finances. You don't even know how much money you." you're spending per month versus how much you're making. You're just randomly throwing lobs of cash in the market randomly with no long-term diligence at all. And it's like, bro, somehow you're gonna— like, that's ridiculous.
