That was “only” a few hundred billion.
It pales in comparison to the $9 trillion in QE over the past decade given to the largest banks.

I can’t believe that real friends and family members that I know seriously invested in Dogecoin.
It may not make sense right now, but you may spend the next decade or so chasing money to get to a point of contentment only to realize that you’re chasing after money because you think it’s going to give you peace. The turn is when you figure out money doesn’t give you peace.
Contentment, happiness are choices. They aren’t milestones that can be achieved, or goals to be met. They are choices just like choosing what color shirt to wear in the morning.

I’ve had issues where the user has run out of hard drive space and now the app randomly crashes. Or when the antivirus scanning software locks down the DLL and the app hangs. Or the user wants to just make a quick change on their iPad while traveling on a plane.
Even up until the tanks started rolling in did Europe not even consider the possibility of invasion to be real. Just last Monday was the Ukrainian President asking for calm and not to overreact.

When that life change happens, if you try to sell your house in a market downturn, it would be at a tremendous loss where you would have to cover that shortfall in one single payment. Ex: you owe $500k mortgage on a house that’s only worth $300k, you would have to find $200k in cash (and no bank will lend this) to be able to sell your property. And if you can’t do that, well…then you can’t move.
Alternatively, in a hot market, you could sell your house for 650k, and since you only owe 500k on it, you would get a $150k lump sum (tax free here in the USA). Even if you didn’t want to sell the place, you could still rent it out, and also take out a home equity line of credit, where you still could get nearly 80% of that 150k in a tax-advantaged lump sum and still have the rental cash flow coming in to pay for that loan while you’re living that lavish lifestyle. Since it’s a line of credit, you can extend this lavish lifestyle for quite a while until… you guessed it, the market tanks and you’re back underwater on your mortgage.
