Again, I'm just not "buying" it (see what I did there?).

I know our perspective/opinion differs a bit on this, but I just don't think people are buying "things" at a rate to reflect what the economic numbers say. Now, they may be buying experiences, but that's a whole different kettle of fish.

This was already in the "writing on the wall" when we closed our art gallery some years back... people were still buying art, but they were buying digital art which isn't physically manufactured and doesn't actually exist in the physical space of shipping, manufacturing plants, and people going to work at "jobs."

Doesn't mean there isn't commerce in a financial sense... just means that someone is spending $200 on an NFT, rather than on an art print that requires paper, ink, wood for a frame, glass to cover the art, a framer to assemble it all, wire and nails to hang it, and so on.
