I think that's the real most painful part.

Warning people what's going to happen, sometimes years ahead of time, just to be ignored.

The best options I have found are

A) give the warning not as a warning, but as a benefit (EU stock market is going to go up, should have invest there VS dollar is going to drop a lot in value).

B) Band together to help out other Cassandras. If we can't help people who ignore, we can at least try to help others who know.

C) Just stop caring.
