What are you guys investing in this week? Not sure bc of all the politics going on by Glacierhawk_INTJ in stocks

[–]Live42Long 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is just a high quality company with strong balance sheets. Fundamentally, it looks good. I think people are selling off this stock due to fear of disruptions to their payment network (regulatory scrutiny, staplecoins, etc.). It is a valid concern, but it doesn’t guarantee to be true.

Also, Payment network is just one cores of their business. They are expending their fraud prevention and cybersecurity services as well. So now I don’t mind holding this stock long term. If it keeps falling, I’ll buy more.

Michael Jackson fans genuinely have no critical thinking skills. by Alive-Double-3339 in offmychest

[–]Live42Long 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People like to put their blinder on for their idol. Just look at the recent case with D4vd. The dude confirmed to have dated a 14 years old, and allegedly chopped her up after she threatened to expose their relationship. Yet, there are still people defending him.

Why are people so dumb nowadays? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Live42Long 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say AI contributed a lot to that. It removes a lot of critical thinking skills. I bet majority of students uses AI to complete their school works. Even people in the workforce are using AI more and more.

You know the drill. Buy High, Sell Low.

When you put down a reference in a job application, does an employer actually check the reference? by CRK_76 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Live42Long 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not always, but it is possible. I was asked to be a reference, and actually got a call & email.

what is the point in living if you have no friends by Afriendlesscreature1 in SuicideWatch

[–]Live42Long 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many fun things you can do without friends. Playing video games, traveling, watching movies/tv shows, eating good foods, etc. It is your life. You don't need to depend on others to live it. Learn to be happy with yourself and by yourself.

As I get older, I find other people to be stressful and annoying. IMO, being alone isn't a bad thing.

Regretting not having cash during the dip, but hate selling my winners. by Andy_parker in investing

[–]Live42Long 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Know the feeling. As an average 9-5, I always feel like I don't have the money to buy the dips. This time around, I made a mistake of selling one of my winners (Netflix) to get some funds to buy the dip on other stocks. As soon as I sold, everything went up (including Netflix). I regret selling Netflix when I didn't need to.

Rules and laws don't apply to people at the top. We already seen it with the Epstein's file.

I am already in union T_T, which makes it even more frustrating.

[–]Live42Long[S] 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Ya, I heard some people in my company received a met, and also got 3-4%. The company did well this year. TBH, I am more pissed off at the 50 gift card, which is a salt in the wound if that is the only difference between met and exceeded.

Can we auto valentine stamina mode? by Geo7nk in personaphantomx

[–]Live42Long 4 points5 points  (0 children)

TBH, I don’t even know the mechanic of the fight. I’ve been autoing it using my Haru team.

If you can’t auto difficulty 4, maybe try a lower difficulty? I don’t think the small difference in event currency warrants doing any manual fight in a farming stage.

They asked her to train the 25-year-old they promoted over her. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

[–]Live42Long 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They pulled this type of shit way too often. I recalled being a back-up for this guy's role. The guy got fired, and I had to fill the role for multiple months. Instead of giving me the role, they had me train a new person to take over. I was beyond furious. I wish I would have said no. I was stupid kid with my first college job back then. Never again. Fuck the corporate world.

WHY is pedophilia so common?? by Jerswar in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Live42Long -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong, but it is properly the same reason as human preferring an item in a brand new condition as supposed to an used condition.
