For example, USC offering free tuition to students in families with less than $80,000 in family income. Without the recent gains in the Stock Market this would not be possible. There are many other examples of how the gains in the Stock Market benefit non owners of stock if you choose to look for it. Google will help but if your motives are not pure one might not want to find these facts.

A poster posted this earlier.....
"I can predict who enjoys the news most when the stock market drops.
Hmmmmm."
As i said, and nobody objected.......everyone likes when the market is up thus I really dont know why the discussion.
It took a dive...that is worth discussion but seems the subject is going to be changed by those who feel they have that right and nobody else.
Used to be, as I have often said.,..you could come to this forum and interact and learn from others. This area is always something I like to learn about but now days, it seems impossible because of other interests affecting posters and they need control
