In the bar industry we joke that the business is recession-proof. However, it remains to be seen whether or not we are pandemic-proof.

Seems like the existence of index futures makes investing in the indexes more risky. or maybe not.

I figure I have enough time until I retire that this won’t even matter.

But then again I don’t know shit about the stock market and I just have a couple mutual funds.

Walk outside and ask the first person you see what they think of the Eastside. You’ll probably get scoffed at.

In the bar industry we joke that the business is recession-proof. However, it remains to be seen whether or not we are pandemic-proof.

I think bars will fair much better than restaurants, which are about to get clobbered. A week of no sales could be hugely problematic for even the most successful restaurants; a month could be disastrous.

The ones hurting the most in my city are concentrated in Asiatown, where people stopped going a month ago. My wife and I plan to go support one of our favorite ramen places there next week.

Kind of fucked up that people are avoiding that one part of town.

I agree, but right or wrong the perception is that it's an insular community that may not always have the national interests of the US in mind.
