So Paypal charges about 2% to buy/sell Crypto.  Coinbase charges ... 4% to add money, 0.4% to buy/sell? 

China works with long term plans and has goals to achieve. There was a US intel that suggested 2027 is the year China attacks Taiwan. That could be true or maybe the CCP is more flexible on time if the conditions are met or not. The more the west tries to isolate China, the quicker it would move towards the attack.
There are still hopes in China that there would be a peaceful reunification but I don't see that coming as the young people in taiwan are against it.
When you build up military hardware and spend a lot of money on your military, you are expected to get some results. It's not about whether but when would China attack.
I think 2028/29 would be a much better period as that would be another huge election year and as messed up the US and European democracy is, they'd be in dire conditions by that elections.

They have been preparing for several years, but I think they will attack Taiwan sometime. But that's their business.

I sounds more reasonable to me Xi is getting ready to start a military operation on Taiwan and recover the island for it to be completely under the control of the CCP.

College has caused a decline in the job market. And it does not help when colleges are so fucked up that no reasonable person takes them seriously anymore. The only thing college students know how to do is vote for the mentally inept Kamala Harris, complain, scream and make violent threats in class, and delude themselves into thinking that they know something when they really don't. College students are the worst people. They do not know how to apologize or recognize when they are wrong or when something is fucked up. They don't know math. And they do not know how to manage money or else they would not be in college getting so much debt for no reason at all.
