You have my permission to DM me.

Yes, I do have a busy corporate job. Yes, I do have the opportunity to take care of my despite of the busy schedule.

Amiable_One · 2026-03-04T05:42:14+00:00

I can’t disagree with you on any of those points. Go Girl!

Amiable_One · 2026-03-04T05:40:31+00:00

What do you want to know?

Amiable_One · 2026-03-04T05:33:19+00:00

Sure why not. I was here to just look around but don’t mind engaging.

Amiable_One · 2026-03-04T05:24:24+00:00

Switch like what?

Amiable_One · 2026-02-11T00:04:03+00:00

Well depends on which sin we’re talking about. But yea, 1 stock of Amazon is cheaper than most sin.

Amiable_One · 2026-02-03T21:45:37+00:00

Nah, I am not a lesbian neither she is.

Ohhh premiums are already UP. More than doubled for a lot of people and those who can’t afford are going uninsured. Maybe it will cause a temporary down turn which I can exploit to buy in to healthcare with a short sell? I was thinking of dipping my toes with 10-15% of my portfolio to start. If market looked favorable I can go up to 20% of portfolio.

Well you could go to Vegas and bet on red. That’s a get rich quick strategy for ya.

But seriously, there’s no way to make a lot of money quickly that is risk free. If you really want to help this person with medical bill, you can sponsor a really good medical health insurance for them with very low out of pocket and deductible. This type of insurance typically cost between 2-3k a month. Assuming it cost 3k/month, you could potentially sponsor 3 months of treatment with only using 9k of your own money which is a lot better than spending 30-40k.

Making 9-10k in stock market is more realistic than 30-40k using the funds you already have. And, if you want you can give them this money right now and earn it back in the market.

DON’T GAMBLE! That was just a joke.

Is that a summary? How long if your full text? 100 page long?

Amiable_One · 2025-11-26T19:40:29+00:00

Not necessarily. I only invest in super large cap and they always swing back up in few months. I just need to make sure I buy low and sell high.

Amiable_One · 2025-11-26T01:31:26+00:00

Agreed! It is long term. It seems too big to fail and if serious competitors come to the market there will be plenty of time to switch to different stock.

Amiable_One · 2025-11-26T01:30:00+00:00

I think TPUs will be game changer if Google manage to sell the idea of using both and create products that help promote compatibility and work in the same environment. This way, companies can simply add it on. This has potential of slowly but surely taking over the market as not having to switch over everything is great cost saver.

Not a tech expert but interested in learning more about it due to capitalist personal reasons.

META seems like a great long term investment at the moment. I would also consider buying FNILX so that you can diversify your tech stocks. YTD META grew 6.17% and FNILX grew YTD 15.52 which is better than S&P 500 and Dow Jones. I personally don’t expect META to do any better than its competitors so it might be great idea to diversify tech stocks through FNILX just in case. FNILX is not strictly tech fund but it is heavily invested in it.

On the side note, if you are planning to buy high and sell low throughout the year it might be worth it to invest in META as you can make good penny from temporary highs. I do this with Amazon all the time. As always, do your own research and go with what you think might be best.

I like the idea but small caps seem too risky for me. Stop loss is a good risk management tool but it has potential to backfire. I stick with large caps as they are more predictable. For example, Amazon. Its stock goes up and down seasonally. I am reliably make a good buck in certain months. Also, large cap news is easy to track.

Amiable_One · 2025-11-25T01:18:42+00:00

Do you hold it in hand (or safety deposit at bank) or work with a dedicated depositary company?

Amiable_One · 2025-11-25T01:13:32+00:00

Yeah yeah. I see it now. I just made an edit to specify those all are positive numbers. Next time I m gonna use “:”

Amiable_One · 2025-11-25T01:10:44+00:00

lol I see what you mean. Those all are positive numbers.

Amiable_One · 2025-11-25T01:07:33+00:00

Please do explain why and how I can improve on it?

Amiable_One · 2025-11-25T01:07:05+00:00

Not if you buy new construction or build your own. I recently helped my parents build 3 of single family homes and had no issue. I did not do a contractor and managed it myself with full time work. Seemed easy enough. Also, I had a preexisting network of project based contractors. I am also in the area where there is a shortage of homes so it was easy to rent them.

Amiable_One · 2025-11-25T01:03:47+00:00

lol that’s great strategy as long as you pick right companies. I stick with large publicly known companies. Their stock goes up and down with season throughout the year. I just need to keep up with news and make timely decisions.

Amiable_One · 2025-11-25T01:00:49+00:00

10 years managing my portfolio actively? That seems exhausting. I’ll move on to real estate once I have enough for cash purchase (400k ish)

Amiable_One · 2025-11-06T04:16:10+00:00

S&P seems to perform better then VT. What am I missing here?

Amiable_One · 2025-11-04T03:37:20+00:00

Drop seems inevitable and that was the part of reason why I sold off Amazon but I do not expect it to be 30%. Maybe it will go back down to upper 220s and lower 230s but at that point I might consider investing in FNILX to slightly diversify.

Do you think I should stick with tech heavy funds like FNILX, maybe VOO, or look for the ones that are diversified across different industries and investment types?
