I think Risto's point is that we can all "eat cake" too is we just hold and don't panic (or buy during this great opportunities to do so if possible).
Maybe I am strange but I find his words quite comforting.
This is a bit more harsh than I would like, but to be brutally honest, the strangest aspect of the dialogue here is the complete lack of self-awareness among those whose
ressentiment betrays the weakness of their character, and hence the unlikeliness of their long-term success. Generally such self-deluded conditions only end when the victim (i.e. the perpetrator) reaches a rock-bottom of desperation, in which the mind becomes more plastic and amenable to reform.
