Crashes are good for people that have capital because it lets them buy things that people are forced to sell at a discounted price.

Facts. You don't even have to be particularly rich to do it. I had a few thousand I'd saved over a decade in March 2020, used it to buy oil stocks at a 90% discount, then sold it two years later when things rebounded. It wasn't 'fuck you' money, but it allowed me to pay off my student loans.
