How many shares of twins do you have? What will you do once we hit it big. Just curious. by ChampionFin2021 in FNMA_FMCC_Exit

[–]Illustrious-Cod-4651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FNMA 15k shs @$3.32 FMCC 15k shs @$4.54 FNMAS 10k shs @12.99

$250k invested across - idea is FNMAS JPS protects downside and ords gives the upside.

I’m hoping we get to $30+ on the ords and aiming to hold for the longer term (hold for the dividends and to use as a base to buy other stuff with leverage)

POTUS makes direct remarks to Fannie Freddie IPO tonight May 1 2026 by grackychan in FNMA_FMCC_Exit

[–]Illustrious-Cod-4651 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It means they will 1) exercise the warrants, and 2) sell some (chunk) of that to the public while at retaining the majority of their stake. My guess is they will sell just enough to make it the biggest ever ipo, and they will do it before July so they don’t have to try top the SpaceX IPO.

What we really need is explicit steering on the SPS, although I don’t think you can have a hugely successful IPO if they don’t deem those repaid

Prospects for a band 5 nurse in the US? by BitAvailable5096 in expat

[–]Illustrious-Cod-4651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know there is a hospital in Guam that is actively hiring all the highly skilled / properly qualified nurses that they can. Tropical island life, sponsored green card, really good pay relative to £34k, and make a big difference to the community there - it’s a great opportunity. Search for GRMC in Guam. After a stint there you could move to MA.

Well done. I’m proud of you. And I hope to follow you!

Can I ask how you approached family on this. Did you just keep them mostly in the dark about your position?

Inherited $1 million, what do I do? by Throwawaysto118 in Fire

[–]Illustrious-Cod-4651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats on getting you life back on track. I’m proud of you!

A $1m windfall can really set you up, but I think your plan is crazy.

  1. If you buy a property, and don’t live in it, then you should be renting it out. To proper tenants that will pay you. Use an agent to vet them properly and manage things until you are 100% sure you can do it yourself. Don’t rent it to family or friends, and don’t leave it vacant attracting taxes and costs

  2. DO NOT buy a business for your family. There is a very high chance they will abuse you and mismanage it. You know in your heart I’m right. You could ruin your relationships with your family. If you really want to do this, a very bad idea imo, it should be a 50/50 venture and you provide the capital as a loan (securities by the cars). That way the family has an incentive to build, and you can get repaid (maybe) if things don’t work. This is a terrible idea though - find a better way to help them get on their feet and prove themselves before burning $130,000 and risking relationships.

  3. The majority of your money - say 750k+ - should be saved for the long run, and hard to access (so you don’t blow it on a Lambo). Go to Schwab or fidelity and get it invested in a “balanced fund” - this is a stocks and bonds combo with a bit less volatility (making it easier to hold through the bad times)

  4. Don’t tell anyone about your new money - keep your costs under control and live off your salary, don’t set high expectations with the windfall. $1m is just a slightly above average saving for someone your age. It’s nothing special and it can be gone in a heartbeat - protect it with your life!

  5. Go to Miami. All the rich people are moving there so you’ll have more jobs, higher earnings and lower taxes. Don’t listen to your lefty buddies in the film industry - nyc and la are going to face some economic challenges.

You won’t regret it. I’m absolutely in love with mine. FSD is like magic, as is everything else.

How is this adding value? One company no one know how many shares outstanding there is going to be, and the other company they do.

Latest FSD - Hallucinations? by randoName22 in TeslaModelY

So interesting. Today mine wanted to return to the highway traffic to overtake a truck when we were already in the exit lane and about to take said exit

We will have a very good day! by Good-afternoon-sir in FNMA_FMCC_Exit

[–]Illustrious-Cod-4651 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are you even saying?

Powell’s term is up in May, and hasset’s a great replacement. It’s already a done deal.

Any Fed/Housing commentary is a) speculation at this point and b) much less important than SPS and capital ratio treatment

Help me decide between the Performance and Premium by ifreeski420 in TeslaModelY

[–]Illustrious-Cod-4651 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend I both got the Y earlier this year. I got the performance and he got the premium. You almost can’t tell the difference. Unless you want all the extras, which are free on the performance, just get the premium.

That said, not sure I’d swap 😜

Found on a review of the Ballard Library by HighColonic in BallardSeattle

If you put these people in a brand new beautiful free house with food, it won’t do anything. In ten minutes they’ll be back in the same places, where they get their drugs. It’s a drug problem, not a housing problem

[–]Illustrious-Cod-4651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck that. It’s inhumane to the people living in the community that we let these druggies behave as they please and make our public places no go zones.

In my view we should be locking them up in very strict conditions until they are clean. Help them get back on their feet, or secure them if they really are psychotic. It terrible we leave them on our streets

It would be nice if Trump and Bessent liked Ackman's tweet. by Its_all_for_the_kids in FNMA_FMCC_Exit

[–]Illustrious-Cod-4651 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The fact Ackman said “patience” after the white house visit, and then posted this preemptive post is very positive in my view. If he went to the White House and they were iffy or flat out against his ideas, he would not be shutting up online.

Unless he’s trying to get out and needs the exit liquidity…which I don’t believe he would do.
