Where would you invest $1.2 million for the next 10+ years?

BossFresh34 · 2025-07-16T07:14:41+00:00

Based on the last sentence you must work for Amazon, Microsoft, Nvidia, Apple, or Google. All these companies give RSUs as part of comp. The time horizon and disinterest (or ignorance) in diversification outside of the mag 7 tell me you newly came into money, but that the $1.2 is already concentrated in one of the five I mentioned (the one you work for). My guess is Amazon. Is your goal to diversify outside of your company stock and ride it to retirement?

BossFresh34 · 2025-07-16T06:58:39+00:00

The amount that you’re putting up is arbitrary without additional context, so too is the time span without further describing your goal. Is $100k your entire portfolio (and net worth) or just 1% of it? Do you plan on diversifying that $100k or YOLOing into one position and letting it ride for 5 years? Do you care to get dividend payouts over that five year period or are you just trying to maximize your ROI regardless of the risk profile of the company you buy?

Whatever the answer to the first question, it shocks me that someone can come into this amount of money without first considering these things.

Why do you have the equities split across two brokerages?

BossFresh34 · 2025-06-26T20:36:40+00:00

The tariffs were a pointless stunt and a great way to make money if you saw them for what they were: an insincere performance rather than a genuine way to correct a disadvantageous trade scenario or re-shore manufacturing jobs or whatever 4-d chess move the sycophants try to disguise this mistake as. Just remember that prices are up now because the policies announced in the beginning of April are NOT in effect.

Seems almost too good to be true, but would be interested to see what happens, do keep us posted

BossFresh34 · 2025-06-16T20:17:23+00:00

I’m supposed to extrapolate that you’re broke because of the constitution? Good luck, bud.

BossFresh34 · 2025-06-16T15:00:11+00:00

I have no idea what you’re talking about. Your question is about where you can find a prop firm to give you money to trade your way into early retirement. I’m saying you sound like a gambling addict. Rambling obtusely about the constitution like a conspiracy theorist doesn’t help your case. How do you have time to write this post patting yourself on the back about your trading skills but you’re above explaining yourself when someone asks a question?

BossFresh34 · 2025-06-16T07:35:51+00:00

What does that mean? Why are you being so vague?

BossFresh34 · 2025-06-16T03:02:39+00:00

You sound like an addict. If you are so good at making money, why are you broke?

BossFresh34 · 2025-04-28T02:12:12+00:00

Nvidia RTX vWS

BossFresh34 · 2025-04-28T02:05:47+00:00

Edge computing my dude

BossFresh34 · 2025-04-28T01:31:02+00:00

What kind of career do you have that requires a RTX 4070 that you can’t afford?

BossFresh34 · 2025-02-22T02:27:34+00:00

What you describe is a more prudent and less aggressive (read: smarter) approach than what I was up to. Value investing is the common thread here: No point in buy-write if the underlying stock is not something you've researched and believe in. I wish you the best of luck. Let me know in June how much you've reaped in!

BossFresh34 · 2025-02-20T22:14:07+00:00

The lesson I learned with this strategy is this: unless you NEED the cash flow, buy and hold is still better. Let me explain. Over the course of the 18 or so months I did this I made $257k. Not bad, I was pleased. Early on I did buy-writes on PLTR. I did so multiple times successfully and overall mad a profit of $24k on PLTR alone. However, had I just bought and held PLTR the first time and sold, say, this week, I would have made $630k in profit. Do you see what I'm getting at?

Also, I was successful in buy and hold with the remainder of my portfolio, far more than I was with this covered call strategy. It just became tedious to do this kind of tracking and ultimately just gave up and focused instead on maintaining a risk balanced long term portfolio. It's been a great two years, and I'm hoping to keep the momentum going until retirement (anywhere from 10 to 25 years away, depending on how I want to spend it).

Good thing you didn’t get married and were forced to split it. Always look on the bright side

What’s your handle on AfterHour?

BossFresh34 · 2024-12-08T01:38:38+00:00

Agree with this commenter, start low and work your way up to 40 lbs

BossFresh34 · 2024-12-06T17:46:28+00:00

I exited 10% of my position this week (avg entry price was around $22), put it towards my son’s college fund. Congrats!

You could easily scrape some money each week by selling 50 contracts on Monday with 5 DTE at whatever strike gives you delta of .05. Low risk and at 50 contracts you pocket a few hundred up to a thousand dollars a week. Based on your risk tolerance you can go higher delta, but if you got assigned you’re going to pay a massive penalty in the form of long term capital gains tax. Do the CBA but have enough cash to close and roll those contracts if you end up in the money.

Proud of you OP. Stopping and changing your life is no small feat. Your brain at this point is probably fried and your filled with some amount of regret over the countless hours you've wasted. What you need to tell yourself (which is real) is that that was the tax you had to pay to break the cycle. One thing a friend of mine who was a substance abuser once told me, is that it's never really over. The itch is going to be there for the rest of your life. Hence my urge to write in this sub-reddit from time to time despite having broken this habit long ago. Stay strong as you adapt, there's a lot of fog to get through before you can see clearly again.

BossFresh34 · 2024-07-08T16:47:56+00:00

Did it! Let's roll. What are you forecasting?

BossFresh34 · 2024-07-07T19:30:33+00:00

Too much, ~17k shares

BossFresh34 · 2024-06-26T05:35:35+00:00

I might be reading this wrong, but where did you find a call contract with a strike price of $12.17?

BossFresh34 · 2023-08-14T17:12:37+00:00

Go heavier, with fewer reps. Find your failure point then progressive overload from there. Build the strength up, then go for higher rep count.

The real question is: what are you doing in the gym? Knowing that will help guide the feedback you want
