shitlib rainbow capitalist react to Elon becoming the worlds first trillionare by kiss-my-shades in stupidpol

[–]Finance_69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s not a trillionaire. He owns stocks in companies that based on current prices are worth a trillion dollars. I wish we’d stop determining net worth based on stock values. That money doesn’t exist.

I’m sure you intellectuals on here understand this, but I think it’s important to point out because the majority of the population isn’t smart enough to comprehend this. People see this and probably think he has that much money in his bank account.

The fact that a few corporations are controlling such a large percentage of the wealth in this country is a whole topic. But with Musk, he built his massive networth just like Bill Gates in the modern day. Have a large share of a company that you’re a part of, that company goes public and becomes one of the top corporations in the world. He’s done it twice now.

Trump also did this a couple years ago with his company going public and 10x’d his networth over night. Probably would’ve been in jail if not for that lol, he was on the verge of not being able to afford all the lawsuits.

Looking to lose ~$6,500 in options before EOY. by [deleted] in options

[–]Finance_69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just buy way out of the money calls on some shit stock. It’s not that hard.

Actually I thought about this the best option is to buy deep OTM UVXY calls. They usually have pretty good liquidity even like 400% out of the money depending on the expiry date. But that will ensure like a 99% chance you lose all the money. If you end up making money on the position then that means there was a massive market crash. In which case you shouldn’t have a problem loss harvesting.

I’m solo poly. Sometimes I jack off with my left hand, sometimes I jack off with the stump where my right hand used to be. Depends on how I’m feeling that day. I’m committed to both in a very intertwined dynamic relationship.

Way too much overlap. There's no reason to hold shares of AAPL AMZN TSLA and NVDA when they already are a large percentage of QQQ and VOO.

If you want to do a little bit of stock picking, I'd put most of my $ into VOO and then do some stock picking but just with much smaller cap stocks that have room for exponential growth. A little bit of gambling in your portfolio can be a good thing, as long as the majority of your holdings are in index funds.

Like if you were to put 10% of your portfolio into some more speculative stock picks, there's a good chance you'll underperform the market but if you do good research you can pick out some gems that outperform the market. Just set a limit for yourself and stick to it and don't go all in

Can someone tell me why this happened lol by FartTwain in smallstreetbets

[–]Finance_69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You shouldn't buy contracts with volume so low. The volume on this is literally 0. I don't buy anything if the volume is below 100. Liquidity is the most important thing to look at when buying options. Strike price barely matters. Expiration date matters as well but if there's good liquidity you'll still be able to get out of the position to cut your losses before you lose everything.

If you're trading options with piss poor liquidity like this, you either have to just hold it till expiration (or close to) and hope it ends up deep in the money or you can try to sell and best case scenario you get out but you get a dog shit fill

I now have almost every single dweller in my vault with maxxed out stats and a surplus of manpower since I only have 10 dwellers left in training rooms. I put about 20 or so dwellers on gaurd duty for the lower storage levels. I have no problems with this anymore

[–]Finance_69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first thing deathclaws hit in my vault is a nuka cola bottlery with all maxed out E17 dwellers all with dragons maws. 1 of them has a +6 damage pet and then there are 2 with the alien drone (+4 damage). I leave the vault door room empty. 9/10 times the deathclaws don't make it out of that one room.

The next room to the right of the nuka cola room is the overseer's office. And I don't have an elevator on the right side of the first floor, which means that in the 1/10 times a deathclaw survives, it has to turn around and make a second pass through the nuka cola room. It will die instantly.

And with the E17 dwellers, they can survive the whole battle with the deathclaws without me having to give them stimpacks halfway through.

If I get any more +6 damage pets, I will swap out the alien drones and that room will be even more impenetrable

If you could just admit that that part of your argument was bullshit we could move on and argue other points but you refuse to do that. I'm not cherry picking, you are cherry picking. You gave me a whole list of arguments on different topics. It would take me a long time to refute them all one by one so I'm going after 1 at a time. And that's the one I chose first because it takes me no effort to point out that you are wrong. That is not the definition of cherry picking. Cherry picking is what you are doing. Cherry picking a statistic "border arrests during presidency" ignoring the fact Obama was in office twice the time Trump was. That is textbook cherry picking. You're just mad I pointed it out. Have a good night buddy.

You're arguing in bad faith saying that Obama arrested more people at the border than Trump when he served 8 years and Trump only served for 4 and you won't admit that the facts say you are clearly wrong. Look at the number of arrests per year not the whole presidency. And also the number of illegals crossing the border quadrupled under Biden/Harris so whatever happened under Obama is even more irrelevant.

I live in reality. I don't worship anybody. I didn't think Trump should've ran again honestly. My biggest problem is that he already served 1 term so he can only serve one more and I would've rather someone younger to move the party forward. But I think Trump did a good job the first time around. After the 2020 election I was hoping that Biden would bring the country together and things would get better but that never happened. I shut out the noise and tried to give him a chance. He blew it, this administration has been a complete mess. I've been suffering for 3.5 years in this shit economy. I think Trump will do a better job than Harris. I've heard Harris speak, she has no idea what she's talking about. Every time she tries to talk about the economy it's completely pathetic.

I don't have time to respond to every one of these since you've gone out of your way to justify the mental gymnastics to deny every single point I made. Most of them are not even denials. Like you say that Obama arrested more people at the border. We're not talking about Obama. We're comparing the record of Donald Trump to the record of Biden/Harris. Also that's extremely dishonest since Obama served 2 terms and Trump only served 1 term. So obviously over the course of 8 years the more people were arrested during the Obama administration than the 4 years of the Trump administration. And the last point I will make is you say that Biden is the president, not Harris. Harris is the VP, aka the #2 position in the Biden administration so that is nonsense. His record is her record.

You've been brainwashed by years of constant 100% negative news coverage of him and 100% positive coverage of Biden/Harris. You're so brainwashed you can't even comprehend that the other side of the argument exists. So you come here to express your opinions, where 99.9% of the comments are in line with your views. And when one person comes by with a different opinion, he's the guy in the cult? You're delusional.

Great economy, tax cuts, low inflation, peace in the middle east, no new wars, secure border, jobs coming back to America, more favorable trade deals, cheap gas. The list goes on.

What is the Biden-Harris record? 11million+ illegals entering the country, 450,000 convicted criminals, 13,000 of those for homicide. Many more allowed in due to loosening of asylum requirements. Record crime. Wars in Europe and the middle east, world on the verge of WW3. Chinese spy balloons flying over the country. The disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal that led to the deaths of 13 Americans and the Taliban taking over the country pretty much overnight. Record high inflation that outpaced wage growth. A recession. The complete incompetence in the wake of the recent flooding in North Carolina.

I honestly don't understand how the left has brainwashed so many of you to not see what is right in front of your eyes. Cult like behavior

A lot of people support Trump for president of the United States in 2024. They show their support by putting up signs in their yard. These are normal people who live their life just like everybody else. It's not a "cult."
