Oh I completely agree with you here. The stanning that goes on here is funny at times, but some people here take it too far. Many fanboys are so because they can’t afford to have multiple consoles, which makes sense for children who talk this nonsense. Adults talking this way just make them seem like broke boys.
WinB83 stands up for Xbox by scolding innocents with his economic prowess, but is it enough ?

You're taking concerned trolling to a whole other level. This is like the second or third time in less than 24 hours the title of the thread has changed.
I guess you're mocking me for suggesting that consumers of a product that have high conviction in the product should invest in the company they believe in and profit off it. Shame on me for suggesting that if you invest with companies you like perhaps you'd stand to gain financially off it. Better to sit around and theorize why as a Sony fan Microsoft will fail in their endeavors to build a streaming service filled with games you have no interest in playing.
I drive a Honda. I don't sit around exerting any mental energy on why General Motors will succeed or fail as a company. I drive my Honda and keep it moving.
This whole consumption becomes a spectator sport to be argued and debated baffles me. When I was a kid I was a Nintendo fanboy because that's what mom bought. I became a working teenager and realized I could buy any console I wanted the console wars effectively ended for me. When I became an adult and saw these publicly traded companies could make me money it went even further than buy whatever console I wanted. This isn't a huge investment but If I sold this today from shares I bought in 2019 I could likely buy at launch every console Microsoft puts out for the next 2.5 decades or effectively 4 console generations at 6 years a piece. That's just with the gains it made not the initial investment amount.
.
Or I could sit on a web forum, call my self an innocent because I don't invest in the companies I believe in, and engage in a worthless debate about hypothetically what does Microsoft do if Game Pass fails.

Nobody mad at you.He getting mad
I'm encouraging people to think beyond their usual boundaries using you as a stepping stone to do it. To be honest if somebody stepped back on Project Covo or SOHH and said hey why not invest in these companies who's products yall consume I would have been better for it. Instead we had Courtdog bragging about buying used mattresses on Craigslist. If even one person in their 20s reads that and gives it serious thought that yeah I should hop on Robinhood or Webull and buy a few shares it was worth it. Just to plant the seed is worth it.
A decade ago $1000 in Microsoft is worth $11.6K today.

A decade ago $1000 in Sony is worth $3.4K today. Obviously nowhere near as much but worth more.

Just a heads up from an OG troll. If you gonna do it pick a stationary target. When you announce you're trolling people it ain't effective especially when you switch active targets mid troll.

Why do you think I’m trolling
I simply just ask journalistic questions and update the title as trends change, I just report the news
Good Brother respectfully you may want to dial a back a bit

Because your thread title changed 3 times in less than 24 hours. It went from something about the elephant in the room to saying Xbox fans were juelzing to then saying I'm scolding people.
Ironically I'm not an Xbox fan at all. In the past 5 years I've legitimately played maybe 4 games on Xbox. In the past 9 years maybe 6 games total that I finished.

Don't have to be a fan of something to recognize value in what they do. I don't have a Game Pass sub nor have I even because that's not how I consume games but I can totally see the market as a whole going for it.
