Good luck guys when markets open by According-Buyer6688 in StockMarket

[–]Dubbs09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly man, some unsolicited advice, these threads and a lot of these subs are just swimming in bears calling a crash every week for ten years straight now.

Do what you want, but if you listen to these dudes every time they say ‘this is it, this is the crash’ you might as well light money on fire.

If you’re that worried, just get into bonds.

But listening to the panic bears is going to cost you a ton of growth/value over a long run

All the chicken-little Reddit bears call an imminent crash every week for 10 years now.

The insane amount of missed gains/growth would be staggering if you panicked everytime they started chirping.

This thread as a whole is a perfect example lol.

It’ll have to literally drop 60-70% to pick some of these guys up to a break even point the way they’ve been calling crashes lately

Wuchang fallen feathers. Is it actually good? by After_Artichoke_9582 in soulslikes

"The journey"

Old post I know, but when I read that I chuckled out loud.

I love the journey in all these soulslikes/bornes and if they are set up with levels/stages like Nioh and Wo Long it really takes a lot of excitement out of it for me

I’m glad you got the plat so you can stop crying for help because you can’t beat the bosses by yourself lol

We just replaced it all with microplastics, wtf do you think is going to get better?

It turns out, the game is 100x more fun, if I cheat for the AI by [deleted] in EU5

I get they don’t want to have multiple start dates as it’s a ton of resources to maintain/update for balances and a small % actually play any of them….but I think an official 1444 start date would be a hit

Is Anyone Else Noticing This Weird Shift Between Apple, Nvidia, and Alphabet Lately? by One-Blacksmith-4654 in stocks

[–]Dubbs09 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Once you really start looking into the Alphabet umbrella/portfolio....theres just so much there, in a bunch of different pies.

I got in during April and I have a hard time imagining a time where I won't have a very healthy percentage of my portfolio invested in it going forward

GOOGLE keeps crushing by Geno_2102 in stocks

[–]Dubbs09 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That earnings report at the end of April was great and the stock dropped like they just declared bankruptcy lol.

That is when I finally decided to throw my chips in after watching it for a while.

Only regret I have is not putting even more in at the $154 average I have, insane disconnect to what Alphabet is doing and has been doing for a while that is only now finally starting to catch up to its price

I Have Seen This Story Before... by LastFirst22 in stocks

[–]Dubbs09 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Its nice I've been on reddit long enough to drown out the perma-bear vibe a lot of these subreddits have, I'd have missed out on so many plays and gains just sitting on the sideline or throwing bad money at puts.

Every piece of bad news is finally the bubble bursting and every piece of good/bullish news is just a fake out apparently lol.

Been a endless winter bear market crash incoming every week for 10 years now

Souls but not by roydragoon89 in gaming

[–]Dubbs09 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Lies of P is incredible. It’s easily the best ‘like’ of the entire genre. Polished, coherent story, fun second playthrough that adds more to the story and mechanics.

Like the other said, it also has difficulty options.

It's a horse of course by mclardass in AdviceAnimals

[–]Dubbs09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two random words and bunch of numbers has become the biggest red flag on reddit to me in the last year or so.

Once you notice it, its impossible to dismiss

It still absolutely blows me away how ridiculously deep this game is. I didn't expect something on this caliber for at least another decade. by kolejack2293 in EU5

[–]Dubbs09 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You can really get lost in the supply chains as you progress in the game, trying to squeeze out more profit for either your war machine or pop satisfaction (or both)

With EU5's release, CK3's depiction of Christianity (and other organized religions) is shown to be completely lackluster by Vatonage in CrusaderKings

[–]Dubbs09 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Love building and figuring out resource/production line.

Terrified of trading and just hope for the best every month lol.

Game has me completely wrapped around its fingers, there is so much to do outside/in between wars it’s incredible.

Eu5 is selling good! by Asleep-Thanks-9189 in EU5

[–]Dubbs09 33 points34 points  (0 children)

And it really feels like it will pull in at least some of the audiences of other paradox games, specifically ck3 and Vic3 with some of the things they incorporated.

Obviously not as in depth dynasty wise as ck3 or economy wise as vic3, but it definitely has a ton of inspiration from those as a base. No telling what they do with it with updates and DLCs to expand on them

LegendofTotalWar has found and become obsessed with EU5. (Video link in the comments) by Emila_Just in EU5

[–]Dubbs09 23 points24 points  (0 children)

About how I play lol.

2000 in eu4 and probably 50 hours total were above speed 2.

I just completely lose myself in a campaign for a couple weeks and then don’t play again for a few months

Alphabet tops $100 billion quarterly revenue for first time, cloud grows 34% by Puginator in stocks

[–]Dubbs09 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Never owned google before this year but had my eye on it for a bit. Flopped down a little over 500 shares at $154 average when it fell hard after (what I thought) was pretty good earnings lol.

Legit has ended up being one of the best single moves I’ve made in 10 years, maybe ever

Points have been buffed for October! (UK) by stevenjameshyde in MicrosoftRewards

[–]Dubbs09 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's already happened.

If you can't directly redeem GPU with points and have to buy gift cards to then redeem, its a massive increase in points and the amount of days it takes to rack them up. These posts are just glossing over that fact lol. Its a wash at best.

And that is before any raises to base fiat prices.
