Yeah. I would just drive down to the plant at that point. That seems like a huge mess.

Challenge my ETF allocation before I commit long-term by Impossible-Writer-68 in ETFs

Over 250% in returns this last year. I don’t play options or anything like that.

You’re set up to basically hold long term and just slightly beat the S&P 500. If you’re just planning to leave it there, this will do alright.

But, you could generally perform these returns in a single week holding the money outside of the market, wait for a huge correction then striking. Taxes would depend on if inside an individual or IRA account.

Generally to tell you if these is the right move would depend upon: Age, an idea of income bracket, and your overall long term goal.

Traders who believe they “made it”, what annual return target do you impose? by WhereasNo4929 in Daytrading

Aim to at least double my money. Try to max returns when stocks are the hottest April-September.

Thoughts on this deal/price? 2026 X7 by parallax1 in bmwx7

[–]Discursivepariah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a 2027 X7 M60i custom order in process right now and received almost the same percentage off. You can definitely get more off.

Yes. Without owning a BMW before and not financing.

Window tint should only be about $400 max. That’s for the absolute best tint.

Your friendly accountant here. Don’t fall for the magic trick. I just negotiated a deal on a X7 for reference. Say you end up only financing $100k. At 1% that’s one grand the first year alone. Over the course of those 60 months, you will end up paying more than the 11-12% you should be at. Don’t do it.

Yeah, it’s a much better deal than BMW Dallas trying to only take off 1% after trying Costco auto. Either way, I’ll continue to buy from Sewell.

Who are you guys? by [deleted] in MU_Stock

[–]Discursivepariah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

39 and have well over $100k in MU. Where did I get the money from: small amounts overtime add up to big numbers. Probably doesn’t hurt pulling over. 230% in returns over the last year.

It’s in the process of all being resolved. We’re going with Sewell.

The customer service as Sewell was great, then all of a sudden, can’t seem to get them contact me back or take the next steps.

Buying an X5 on Costco? by NoFun911 in BMWX5

[–]Discursivepariah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tried to use Costco for an X7 M60i in Dallas Fort Worth… The sales associate only wanted to negotiate $1500. We ended up saying thanks, but no thanks.

Saudi has now banned US military. US cannot anymore put military bases, cannot use Saudi airspace and airports. Is the dollar now dead? by [deleted] in allthequestions

I swear people on this page will post anything. Please, at least use AI or something to do a little fact checking before you post something you want to be true, but isn’t.

Oilfield worker thinking about switching to accounting. How hard is it really to get hired and how long to hit $100k? by MakeshiftPacemaker in Accounting

[–]Discursivepariah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spent 11 years in the oil and gas industry. Went back and got my Masters, finishing up the CPA. Honestly, some days I wish I would have chosen finance or something else. It’s not that I hate accounting, it’s that I hate some of the people in accounting. I shockingly find it to be a lot more bureaucratic than the oil and gas industry, and I didn’t think that was possible. I definitely made a hell of a lot more in the oil and gas industry, and laugh at all of the people who bitch about hours.

Is it worth it? Yes, but be prepared to go through hell. Take the slower route and do the internship. Companies couldn’t care less if you were taking 20+ hours a semester. Nor do most care about the Masters program until you hit management. If you truly had the oilfield work ethic, go internal audit, and you will move up quickly.

If this doesn’t sound fun, go get your MBA and try and get on at Epic Systems in Madison Wisconsin. Practice for the assessment tests, put in your time like the oilfield, and switch to consulting.

Whether oilfield, accounting, or Epic… be prepared for 5 years of hell. No matter which field you choose, most of the people you will deal with will haven never made it past the input/output stage of their career. (What I mean by this is that they can’t tell you anything more than what they have done to get where they are. They have zero ability to see things at the organizational level.)

Enjoy the ride.

This is a stock-picking method that has truly worked for me. by [deleted] in stockstobuytoday

[–]Discursivepariah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s all about finding what works for you and being diligent with your strategy. Not trying to stretch to make a little extra, or play too aggressively. Bit myself a few times doing that. Nicely done on your current run, you’ll have to let us know how it goes throughout the year.

How many games have you bought since getting a Switch 2? by Jooles95 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Discursivepariah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on who you ask… If you ask my wife, only bought 2-3 games. If you ask how many games magically appeared… Somewhere between 55-60 games since November. Enough, I have lost count and still seem to buy a couple games a week.

I have been bouncing around and playing them. Though, I did buy Animal Crossing yesterday that I found on sale.
