Decisions like this are infuriating. Two wrong do not make a right. Both should have charges for their crimes and have to deal with the consequences. The guy was using a loaded gun in a robbery. ffs

I would do a lot of research on some stocks that don't meed the compliance for this sub and take a shot. To do it in any short time frame it is going to be gambling so make the odds better in your favour by crushing some due diligence. Anything actually worth going into is still going to take a couple years unless you can find a P&D as it is starting but that is what I would do.

Reply to Magnetic pole reversal by Gopokes91
Reality is this is likely about as damaging to society as Y2K was. If the poles reverse, compasses will point to the new magnetic pole and that really is about all that will happen. Since we generally navigate through GPS now it won't impact much and when we do need to navigate using the pole, maps will have to be adjusted to the magnetic pole, not to true North (But since the Magnetic pole has never been at true North it probably won't matter at all since a compass really just ensures you are moving in a constant direction and it still would do that.)
Any of the really catastrophic consequences of the poles shifting would be visible in geological records like in Arctic ice cores. Since the poles have shifted about 100 times in the last 20 million years or so, we definitely could find a record of major problems. Suffice to say our computers and navigation systems can be adjusted as it changes so I expect on the scale of things we would see more likely no impact than any impact.
It is what I expect at least.
