Warren Buffett's Advice When War Is Around The Corner

A sustained economic crash hasn't occurred in this country for over 16 years. An entire generation has spent most of their lives with a skewed understanding of how bad an economy can get. The last major recession started in December 2007 and ended in June 2009. During that time, the unemployment rate skyrocketed to nearly 10%. Since then, it has steadily decreased, and by around 2015, people in the real world had stopped experiencing the effects of a true economic crisis. We got a small taste of economic trouble in 2020 during the pandemic dip, but aside from this extraordinary event, the American economy has surged ahead with very few bumps in the road. The question many people have is: why should I invest when it seems we're approaching the peak of the roller coaster, and just beyond that peak is a massive cliff we may soon tumble over? To answer that question, we turn to the world's greatest investor, Warren Buffett.
