Never invest with your emotions.
Although I understand what the saying means, I hate this phrase so much. From observing on investing discussion groups, it tends to get used to justify the most amoral shit possible.
Awe does the capitalism you're willingly participating in make you a little sad?
Capitalism doesn't mean being an asshole. One can be a capitalist and also a decent human being. It's an economic system not a moral one. Using it as an excuse for being a vile human being is just an easy out.
Hey look who doesn't know what capitalism means.
