But of course your point presupposes that people agree about what is reality, and they do not. It is just opinions.
Reality doesn't do 'consultations' or take 'opinion polls'. Doesn't need to 'invest', get a 'return on investment', or do politics.
I was just hoping to become a better investor by understanding your superior sense of what constitutes "reality". I imagine with an inside track on reality, your investment results must be very impressive.
Your further mistake is in assuming it is all about my real or imagined 'superior sense of what constitutes "reality" '. Rather it's more a case of reality doesn't care about anyone's opinions, it just does its thing. We pure humans can but attempt to try and understand what that is.
Now, there are human activities concerned with exploring and investigating the nature of reality. But I didn't invent them either, or even imagine that I did.
