Yep, 72% not good with money. Learn how to use money, and live better.

Tell me some more bullshit.

say a central bank apologist... it is okay for some to force a cruel scam on their population, like those forcing mercury vaccines on kids.

You endorse predatory behaviors (that is how the world is) and blame the victims...

More non-stop bullshit from a bullshit artist. I don't endorse any of the things you say I do.
