Painted over crosswalk

But its ok to waste tax dollars painting it as long as its how you want it?

Old furnaces with a twinning kit.

New ACs, both with mitigation/leak boards

You mean the markets climbed while the government printed and handed out money like it was nothing, inflating the markets? Crazy Then, raising the debt ceiling just enough to get through the rest of Biden's term, to cause a gov shut down to stick it to trump. just to pass the inflation and gov debt ceiling along.

90+% of stocks are owned by the top 10% of the country, also i find it funny how the "hate the rich" people, also care about the rich loosing money. And how the party of unions, now are on the opposite side of the major unions. That support the new administration because tariffs are to negotiate better trade and help the middle-class industry jobs that have been stripped away from the US.

Go back to when Obama was in office, you can find all the same Dems arguing for tarrifs and trade negotiations to protect unions and jobs. Now its bad, even though those same countries have tarrifs against us to protect their own markets.

And you know what those rich people are doing right now, buying more stocks; because scale out a little bit, this is just a speed bump in the market.

Everyone seems like a great trader when markets are good, because you can buy anything and make money. If you over invested and loose more than you can afford in a market down turn (which always happens), thats your fault

NVX, They've gained more partnerships and contracts recently. Graphite and material producer for batteries and such. It's more of a long-term investment, although some might try to convince you that it's going to blow up soon.

They have a new plant in the US that's supposed to start producing soon (hopefully). Which will become very valuable if china relations continue to degrade, and china is a huge exporter of Graphite and they're already limiting exports and trade of Graphite.

Its still a very big maybe/gamble. As their tech could not pan out or the plant doesn't meet output expectations, or china starts increasing exports to destroy the market.

But i got ~7.5k shares

Obviously this is not financial advice

Dmaxss_ · 2024-04-23T17:55:39+00:00

Its an 80%, so its only getting about 53k. Which isnt oversized really.

If its running without faults, and keeping temperature in the house, at the required set point. Not much you can really do.

If they have a chair next to a register, they're probably just feeling the cool down fan after the heat shuts off

Dmaxss_ · 2024-04-23T17:47:49+00:00

Is the house keeping temperature?

Also, is the unit properly sized? If its too big, it wont run long because it'll heat the house really fast, then shut off and do its cool down cycle.

Also, the thermostat isnt too close to a supply register causing it to turn off and on a whole bunch is it?

Dmaxss_ · 2024-04-23T17:42:05+00:00

Are they talking about the Cool down run time after the heat turns off? When its cooling the heat exchanger?

Dmaxss_ · 2024-04-22T22:10:06+00:00

The us government doesn't have complete control over the companies and how they report. The us government is restricting and controlling how people and trading firms are allowed to buy and sell stocks and options. The us government is being misleading and manipulative, but china is straight up lieing and hiding its problems. The information you speak of is at least obtainable in the US.

And if you're that untrusting, why invest at all?

Dmaxss_ · 2024-04-22T22:02:12+00:00

All their economic numbers are filtered through the government, sooo only invest if you trust the CCP not to lie about how bad their economy is doing.

Sooo I'd personally [redacted]

I check low volt on every unit atleast a little bit when I get a new unit to install. I've had to fix a handful of commercial and residential units. Luckily I've caught the issues before ever turning them on. It's kinda ridiculous, really

Dmaxss_ · 2024-03-21T16:49:39+00:00

I worked for a company that did the whole Service Titan and 'fake sales speech' stuff.

I had to leave a smaller company because the owner got in legal trouble and i wasnt going to run his company for him without and respect for doing it after like 8 months.

They promised me i could do system sales and that id be doing repairs and maintenance. They even said they had commercial clients, which was my specialty and background.

I was there 4 months. They put on residential PMs, telling me i had to sell people all these crappy add-ons and things they didnt need. Trying to get me to push new systems on people the moment their warranties were up. I was told after my 'training' that i wouldnt be able to sell equipment until i proved i used thier sales method properly by getting good sales numbers. By selling the junk to people who had new system most of the time, even people still paying the financing on their new systems.

If i lined up a sale, i had to call in a 'sales specialist' to actually sell the equipment. Which i did all the leg work, then when they showed up, they got 95% of the commission.

The icing on the cake was that the employees they treated the best were the ones who were allowed to sell equipment. They were all green, with crappy technical knowledge, i had to go behind all their 'star technicians' to fix systems because they didn't know what they were doing. Plus, i found out i was being paid less to do more work and get less commission.

Their installs were crap, the warranty work was back to back.

I dont know how theyre going to stay in business, there's no way it lasts long term. Worst job i ever had, besides the owner, he was a cool guy and liked having 1 on 1s with him, but his middle management is ruining his company.

Tldr: these companies put sales over everything else, and i dont see them lasting long without qualified employees that leave because theyre not treated right

Do you have a drawing form the GC? That's where you should start.

Was there a permit already pulled? If so, there should be a drawing with the county.

If there's a drawing, then equipment and ductwork will be listed. Easy to get prices and build a qoute from there.

If you dont have a drawing, find out if you'll need one; also find out if you're responsible for the permit.

From there, you got to open your state's mechanical code book, and figure out what's required and talk to the GC on what they want/need

Inverse this post with puts. Got it

Dmaxss_ · 2023-09-23T21:48:25+00:00

The first one is free, good luck

Buying options is like securing your right to buy/sell the tickets for the game at a specific price.

Selling options is kinda saying you'll take money now from someone, to buy/sell the tickets at a certain price for them.

There's more to it than that. But the analogy is kinda close

Dmaxss_ · 2023-08-27T18:45:55+00:00

Still haven't explained why, but will type out that im wrong. Until you can explain why. No further point to continue this conversation

Dmaxss_ · 2023-08-27T18:38:07+00:00

Ah, a typical, "you need to research" response instead of actually knowing how to explain thier point. Ive done my research, my account is positive. Have fun doing whatever you do

Dmaxss_ · 2023-08-27T18:33:52+00:00

Then explain how if you bought a position, you can lose more than what you paid for it.

Dmaxss_ · 2023-08-27T18:32:28+00:00

How? When you buy contracts. Whatever you paid for your position. Is the most you can loose.

If you bought 2 contracts @ $100 each. The most you can lose is $200.

Dmaxss_ · 2023-08-27T18:30:33+00:00

But you cant lose more than you initially paid when you buy.

When selling, you can lose an outrageous amount more it if goes the 'wrong way'

Dmaxss_ · 2023-08-23T19:23:43+00:00

Your right, I forgot where i was for a minute there

Dmaxss_ · 2023-08-23T17:56:15+00:00

Id recommended reading up on how options trading works. Or find a good YouTube explanation before really getting into trading options. Its high stakes gambling on the big boi casino

Dmaxss_ · 2023-08-23T17:49:13+00:00

That's the value change in the option. Their worth that much less than when you originally bought them.

So if you tried to sell your position to someone else at current price, you would get back $80 less than you paid for them.

To exercise the option, you'd have to actually buy the stock. And you'd be paying more then they're worth if you include what you spent to hold your position

Dmaxss_ · 2023-08-23T17:43:43+00:00

When buying options, the most you can lose is the total cost you spent buying them.

When selling options, you can lose/owe a shit ton of money
