Topic: Economic Implications of War on Individuals - page 6. (Read 2188 times)

War is inevitable. It gives you limited time to plan. When I think of war, the only thing that comes to mind is the loss of lives and property. When war sets in, you won't even have the mind to think of business, the only thing that comes to mind is how to gather your loved ones to safety.

War has a negative impact on youths and kids who survive it. Most youths are killed, some lose their properties, their wives are been kidnapped, and children go missing. Is a terrible experience that stays in the minds of many, never to forget. No one can offer the best advice to heed during the war except someone who has experienced it.

even in this forum the propaganda still works and people believe Russia is losing. they already have a huge territory of Ukraine. that's the truth as much as we want to punish Putin, he is winning but let's just say this guy is also fighting for the good of his country/people while the West is also fighting for the good of their people.

it's not bad versus evil. there is nothing such as that. every side is protecting its interests.

The loss, or rather the reputational loss of russia's military-industrial complex is one of the biggest problems of the economy. In addition to the lost oil and gas market, where Russia is trying its best to sell these resources for pennies to anyone, the military-industrial complex was actually the third largest in terms of currency turnover, which filled the Russian budget.
And I have a feeling that more money was invested in advertising the products of the military-industrial complex than in the products of the military-industrial complex themselves. The advertised air defense systems, airplanes, tanks looked "unparalleled" exactly until they "proved themselves" in Ukraine. Then it turned out that tanks are ordinary and built on the basis of old Soviet designs, airplanes fly only for shows, and air defense misses ancient Western missiles. And this was immediately reflected by a drop in interest in Russia's fake military-industrial complex, lack of new contracts, and refusal of joint projects. At the same time, Russia "with its own hands" promoted Western weapons, for which "unparalleled tanks" are an easy target, missiles from the 70s easily bypass "unavailable to Western armies" air defenses.... And this process is not reversible

The Ukrainian Defense Forces attacked the Novocherkassk landing ship in the occupied port of Feodosia with two British-French Storm Shadow/SCALP cruise missiles. The port of Feodosia is protected by several S-400 Triumph divisions of the 31st Air Defense Division of the Russian Aerospace Forces, which recently discovered problems with target identification. This time, the S-400 missed two cruise missiles, which were launched from aircraft over the territory of Ukraine and in order to reach Feodosia they had to fly at least 250 km. across the occupied territory of Ukraine. I don’t think that after such incidents, Russian S-400s will be bought by other countries on the international market.

Not surprised you feel like that. After all that amount of lies and propaganda around you.

As I have already told you many times: I'm not Russian, I don't live in Russia and I have never even visited Russia in my life. Moreover, I'm not rooting for Russia in this war. I'm just being realistic: Ukraine can't win this war. As to you, being retarded won't help you to avoid the frontline as AFU are now recruiting retarded people so chances are, you will soon receive a one-way ticket to Donbas. Btw, why are not there yet? You are not patriotic enough?

What in the world is "big airborne ship"? Can it fly? Tell me more about this magic ship... 

As to the rest of your comment, no anti-missile defence system is 100% secure. AFU used the tactics Hamas employed against Israel - they shoot as many missiles, drones and shells as they can, overloading the anti-aircraft systems and then they shoot guided rockets which hit the target while the anti-missiles systems are reloading. But no surprise the person with a room temperature IQ is not aware of this tactics. 

I have no idea, just can tell you that Russians are going to win this war with or without eggs. Btw, I'm not sure why are you so worried about Putin's balls?

I feel like I went on a trip to a madhouse, where they show the most mentally ill patients

And the manifestations are just like in scientific literature on psychiatry - ethereal heroes, fabulous achievements, diametrically opposite statements literally in the "next sentence" ... This also happens from the action of heavy hallucinogenic drugs or drugs that disrupt the worldview. So it is not clear what happened to the author of this nonsense, and what would be a better diagnosis for him !??  

PS I have an assumption that the author still deliberately behaves this way to show himself incompetent and to avoid Putin's collection of expendables all over Russia. After all, Putin said that "there will be no mobilization", and based on the known history, it means one thing - there will be and necessarily  

Although only the mentally damaged and go to realize the painful complexes of the pathetic Fuhrer of Russia

How is the "Big Airborne Ship Novocherkassk" doing? ? I understand everything is fine there - after all it is located in "the most protected region of Russia", as Putin did not lie again ?! And it is protected by "unparalleled, advanced, unavailable to the West, Russian weapons"  

PS and on the topic - what’s the situation with eggs? Is Putin holding his balls until the elections? Is Kazakhstan feeding “Great Russia”?

Why would he want to stop this war if he's winning it?

I think we have already come to a conclusion that there are no or very few mobilized troops in Ukraine. Mostly volunteers and professional army.

According to whom? AFU sources? You really expect them to report correct numbers? You must be out of your mind then, colonel. I remember you wrote here on this forum that Russia has lost more than a million already. And AFU losses? Still 0, right? That's why Ukraine has signed that new recruitment law? 

Again, according to whom? What are the sources? Ukrainian military? I'm sure that Russians have that many armaments in total, let alone in Ukraine.

To run out of what? A significant part of 150million is how many people? 

I'm sure any victim of western propaganda dreams of it. Not gonna happen. In 2024 we are going to see: Trump getting elected as the US president, Ukraine runs out of cannon fodder and NATO help and surrenders (or gets destroyed completely). 

Putin cannot stop the war in Ukraine and withdraw his troops from there for the reason that then he will immediately lose authority both among the elite and ordinary citizens of Russia and, most likely, will be removed or killed. Therefore, already fighting for his life, he will send more and more thousands of mobilized people into the furnace of war. But the mobilized citizens of Russia are not mindless cattle that can be sent to slaughter for a long time. Now, during active assaults on Ukrainian positions, over a thousand Russian occupiers die every day.

After the invasion in February 2022, Russia, according to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, has already lost more than 356,000 of its soldiers and officers, 5,940 tanks, 11,025 armored vehicles, 329 aircraft, 324 helicopters, 8,391 artillery systems, 945 MLRS, 617 air defense systems, 23 ships and boats , as well as other military equipment.

  Russia has a lot of resources, but they also tend to run out. Instead of improving the quality of life in its country, Russia now produces weapons in three shifts, which are destroyed in the war, and the citizens of the country only become poorer, a significant part of them die at the front in Ukraine. Putin can be stopped by food and bloody riots or mass unrest in the regions with the aim of separating from the central government of the Kremlin and creating independent republics. We will be able to see all this already next year, 2024.

Rationality becoming unimportant is the trouble, we should not be really considering it like that at all, it should not even be remotely a question where we would leave rationality and common sense aside but for some reason we do, and that's the biggest trouble. When you throw rationality and common sense out of the window, there is really nothing that you can't do, people act like cornered animals when in fact they could just stand down and everything will be fine.

The fact of "lets stop" being a "weak political move" is the reason why it's such a trouble. Like can you even imagine Putin going out and saying "ok the war is over, we are going back"? We all know that won't happen, it is impossible, it is not going to happen, and that's the biggest trouble. I have to say it is not going to be an issue and it is going to be a trouble for anyone. I think the best thing to do in this case would be just making sure that we get rid of this situation with as minimal damage as we possible could.

We recognize the discrepancy between reason and wartime political elite behavior. Power plays rule this theater, where rationality is secondary. Wars, historically and today, are chess games for political elites that leave society in disarray. In their strategic bubbles, decision-makers occasionally miss reality. We must admit that wars are usually fought for power, territory, or ideology, not the people. This blatant disregard for social well-being is a strategic disaster

In the ruthless world of global politics, trust and strong relationships are idealistic. World where allegiances fluctuate like sand dunes. We must constantly question. Why? Diplomacy conceals underlying goals and power rivalries. Trust is fragile and sometimes traded for geopolitical strategy. We may be spectators in this big geopolitical theater, but we must be intelligent, informed, and critical of the narratives presented to us. Peace and rationality come from informed skepticism and continuous questioning of authority

War is completely useless, instead there will be an economic crisis and a humanitarian crisis, just look at the example of what happened in the war between Israel and Palestine. The scale of this war is astonishing, a terrible waste of life, all caused by a human being with an ego.

Of course, in times of war, money is useless, let alone thinking about investment, the internet is difficult. We can only think about saving ourselves and our families from war. If we are not in a place where there is conflict, of course we need to prepare funds to invest because usually when there is a war the global economy also slumps.

That's right, wherever there is conflict that is their market, Yes. War always provides a breath of fresh air for entrepreneurs engaged in military equipment and equipment, especially if the duration is long and continuous, where the demand for weapons will always come from the conflicting parties, it cannot be avoided. The impact is very serious, namely suffering, displacement and disappearance. lives that occur in war zones, even if victory requires enormous time and costs in the rebuilding and recovery process.

Despite of that disadvantage you said from the trouble makers, they won't still stop. I think it's also about the satisfaction that they can get when they saw the other party suffer. They think they are powerful.

I'm not sure if there will be a regret that they will feel at the end. We can only wish or pray for the safety of everyone. It's mostly in the hands of our leaders (governments). But, I think we can also help in our own little ways like by paying our taxes properly. As I think they can also allocate some of it, on building and improving their defenses. Just in case an unexpected attack from the other greedy and power hungry countries will happen.

War is a terrible disease. It slowly but surely destroys everything around it. And here we must realize that "soft methods" will not provide a cure. Only the destruction of the carriers of this contagion is the only solution to the problem. The disease cannot be "negotiated" or "frozen". The disease will continue to kill, or accumulate forces for further killing. And the more the world will "squirm in place" inventing "peaceful methods", the disease will continue to destroy the world - countries, lives, economies, businesses, everything that has been created. 

The human cost, the shattered lives, the gaping wounds inflicted on families and communities – it's a tragedy that defies comprehension. In the face of such suffering, prayer feels like the least we can do, a silent offering of hope and solidarity across the miles.

Money, in that crucible of chaos, loses its seductive charm. It transforms from a tool of ambition to a mere instrument of survival, a meager offering to secure a loaf of bread, a warm blanket, a flicker of hope. In the face of bombs and bullets, the worth of a bitcoin pales in comparison to the worth of a breath, a heartbeat, a child's laughter echoing through the rubble.

However, if anyone still prioritizes rationality, they will always avoid war, but sometimes society can be different from political elites who feel they have a mandate to act with what they have to do anything for the sake of something that can sometimes be unreasonable.very much agree, because the impact that occurred was not thought through carefully, resulting in destruction that was very irrelevant to the ego that was desired for the war to occur.
Looking at the current wars, we can be sure that this is due to intentions that are sometimes not and are not necessarily liked by society but must be carried out by political elites for the purpose of power, which clearly may not necessarily provide benefits to society in general; in fact, it may even be detrimental, but society cannot do anything

War is indeed a very heartbreaking period. Thousands of people lose their lives.  I never like war. War never brings anything good. And during war it is very challenging to keep your family alive because then you will have money but no goods to spend that money in your country.  When war breaks out, everyone should stock up on water and dry food at home because food is scarce in war-torn countries.  So everyone should stock up on high protein food. And save money though I think wartime money doesn't do any good.

War's a long, ugly shadow hanging over us all, a constant reminder that even at our best, we can be real knuckleheads. Politicians might play power games with it, but the bill comes due for the rest of us – lives shattered, futures left in smoke. It's enough to make you wanna curl up in a bunker and wait for the apocalypse, but that ain't the answer.

Look at Ukraine and the Middle East, still bleeding from the wounds of conflict. We can't control the warmongers in their ivory towers, but we can damn sure control how prepared we are when the storm hits. Instead of throwing our hands up and accepting war as some inevitable fact of life, let's get smart, get trained, and get ready to weather the chaos.

I don't know how do I answer these questions. Because there are no right answer to them. Survival tips? Like what create a bunker? Maybe that will be the best choice but if you have the chance to escape, then you should do it. And when it comes to using money or something else for businesses during war is illogical. When everything is in chaos, how can people use money to buy and sell goods? All you can do is survive at any cost. If possible, take shelter. You can save in Bitcoin for future usage but what if you are not alive to use that in the future?

The impact will not be individual rather it will be for everyone. The military power are fighting with each other and the normal people are suffering. There are no clear method to overcome this until the war is over. If you are caught in a war, all you should do and focus is on survival.

Conflict most times doesn't translate into war as conflicts most times are disagreements that can be settled and when not properly settled it degenerates into war.

War on its own is total breakdown of everything including law, order & Economy. When it happens, people think only about their safety first before anything and aftermath is always devastating. Even after war people still think about survival not economy or investment.
