Here are some misconceptions about who has debt and why we need full cancellation.
As a young immigrant, I took out thousands of dollars in debt to go to for-profit college—thinking it was part of the American Dream.
Like millions of Americans, I was left deeply in debt with a worthless degree and shoddy education. #CancelStudentDebt
Here are some misconceptions about who has debt and why we need full cancellation.
Yes! Student debt has more than doubled in just 10 years. 45 million Americans now are saddled with over $1.7 trillion in debt—and the delinquency rates have nearly doubled. https://t.co/kTgVCrCaTT
Student loan interest is on hold during the pandemic—but the debt is not forgiven. That means millions will owe thousands of dollars in backpay if that debt isn’t relieved. https://t.co/1WUyjLdc8P
Yes! The federal government owns 92% of the $1.7 trillion in student debt. Biden can forgive it with the stroke of a pen.
No! 40% of people with student loan debt don’t even have a college degree. These have been some of the hardest-hit families during the pandemic and are *3 times* more likely to default. https://t.co/wJROZZM6Wa
"40% of people with student loan debt don't have a diploma. These people are earning what a high school grad can earn, but are struggling with student loan debt. We cancel $50K in debt & 85% of those struggling\u201440mm people\u2014will have their debt completely eliminated" \u2014@SenWarren pic.twitter.com/kk7ZDo8NhN

No. The average public university student borrows *$30,030* to get a bachelor’s degree. Only 17% of for-profit college attendees graduate without debt. https://t.co/3ZIFMTU4dZ
The opposite. Black graduates average $25,000 more in student loan debt than white college graduates. In fact, the majority of black borrowers owe more in debt than their entire net worth. https://t.co/gjYNilIqbi
No. Parents are increasingly saddled with debt too. The amount of debt taken out by parents has tripled in the past 25 years. https://t.co/PMhHRoaflZ

Thread: P&F Super Pattern
An effective price pattern defined using properties of P&F charts.
#Superpattern #Pointandfigure #Definedge
Point & Figure is an oldest charting method where price is plotted vertically, and the chart moves only when price moves. It is a different way of looking at the price, the objective box-value and reversal value offers advantage of identifying objective price patterns.
When price is moving up, it is plotted in a column of 'X'. When it is going down, it is plotted in a column of ‘O’. Normally, three-box reversal criteria is used to define the trend & reversal. Unlike a bar or candle, the P&F column can have multiple sessions in it.

See below chart. Price is in a strong uptrend, P&F chart would produce a long of column of 'X' with more number of boxes in it.
If such a trend is followed by some time bars without meaningful price correct, P&F chart would not move, and it will remain in column of 'X' in such a scenario.

** MEGA THREAD ON Cryptocurrencies/Blockchain**
I wanted to know the best resources to learn about cryptocurrencies and blockchain for someone with zero knowledge. I asked Twitter, and Twitter answered.
This thread is a compilation of the best resources I was recommended. 👇👇
Let's start with ** BOOKS **
The first thing you should do before you pick up any book:
Learn about Bitcoin & Ethereum by reading the respective whitepapers.
- [Bitcoin white paper](https://t.co/cErOaFn6QL) by Satoshi Nakamoto
- [Ethereum White paper] (https://t.co/0g5kYCGJGq) by Vitalik Buterin
Even if you are not tech savvy, you can get a good grasp about how blockchain functions from these papers.
1) *The Basics of Bitcoins and Blockchains: An Introduction to Cryptocurrencies and the Technology that Powers Them* by Antony Lewis
This book covers topics such as the history of Bitcoin, the Bitcoin blockchain, and Bitcoin buying, selling, and mining.
It also answers how payments are made and how transactions are kept secure.
Other cryptocurrencies and cryptocurrency pricing are examined, answering how one puts a value on cryptocurrencies and digital tokens.
