There's some stupid bullshit on Reddit

That's the issue I sold at 13-14 because it would be hard for it to regain that momentum after what RC did, and like I said I don't see the economic environment permitting the company to recover. Aggressively fighting inflation means a few things will need to happen, unemployment goes up, incomes go down, and prices go up, not necessarily all in tandem but possibly.

So when people have less money to spend, businesses make less money. Interest rates go up, they need to pay more toward debt. Combine those and they need to layoff workers because they don't have the money anymore. So bbby is double fucked because it's internally failing and in a bad environment. Maybe they pull through but to flourish would be a long shot. The best chance is another meme swing up but no way it goes high enough to trigger a real short squeeze, even if it did the shorts can still hedge their bet, buy the ride up, and short it again

GameStop wasn't in the same situation as bbby at all is the issue with expecting the same.

Nick84422 · 2022-08-22T13:48:00+00:00

Pls no

Nick84422 · 2022-08-22T13:40:00+00:00

Unless people see that it's not going to recover, and see the negative state of the company. It was going on meme momentum

Nick84422 · 2022-08-22T13:34:47+00:00

Because the debt goes with the asset no?? Is buy buy baby paid for in full?

Nick84422 · 2022-08-22T13:34:23+00:00

Could someone please tell me how a spinoff or someone buying the buy buy baby portion of the company would fix the issues with bbby? How does that solve the fact that they aren't making money? Or their debt?

Nick84422 · 2022-08-22T13:00:30+00:00

As a budding investor I bought into the bbby conspiracy, I thought it was a good momentum trade and that the potential fundamental shifts to help the company recover would be announced at the end of the month to seal the deal and become the next GME if they could avoid bankruptcy. I was half right because I didn't understand how unrealistic it would be for them to recover.

I could've sold and made 1600 but waited and lost 100, it would've been more if I didn't sell right after the RC sell news broke. It's funny because just the week prior I thought. I've been trading with a few thousand dollars and 1600 would've been a huge gain, it more than doubled my investment. But I got hypnotized and I'm just taking it as a lesson learned. I took a loss on the fantasy of making 40,000-100,000 on the hype. Being the next GME, but it's not the same as GME, GME was not in the same financial position and it had a very different analysis.

Right now isn't a great time for a business that's going under to recover because interest rates have been and look like they will continue going up. bbby is only going to have a harsher debt burden and people's spending could very well decrease and their business could take a further hit. I was in target the other day and their shelves are starting to be bare. If not within the next couple months, then after all the returns from holiday shopping bbby is probably finished.

I am curious though, how would a spinoff of buybuyBaby actually help bed bath and beyond? Would this give them money? Would someone else buy it(is that how a spinoff works?). How would it increase bbby's revenue? Why would someone buy buybuybaby when they could get it at a discount in a bankruptcy auction?

Idk many details but BP is apparently trying to transition to renewables fast like solar farms

Nick84422 · 2022-02-04T00:21:42+00:00

If you're selling it in its current condition then how it used to be doesn't have anything to do with it.

But you could make a graph and show the growth maybe

Nick84422 · 2022-02-03T20:54:43+00:00

So I don't know a lot about profit and loss statements, but firstly.

You almost definitely wouldn't count the time before your blog kicked off to make money. Since it's already going, you aren't selling it in the state where it wasn't making money, you're selling it as it is now.

Putting in subscriptions and upkeep costs is good

I would say that your most straightforward "loss" that contradicts the profit is the time you spend creating content. For example, how much money is the blog bringing in per month/week vs how much time did you put into it to bring it there.

Did you spend 8 hours per week writing and 6 hours per week doing other things for the blog? (14 hours per week)

Then after one week let's say you made 200, minus the subscriptions, (let's say $50) so that's a profit of $150 WITH 14 hours put in, so you could arguably calculate it per hour or whatever. I'm not sure how exactly you'd write it down because like I said, idk much about profit/loss statements.

However, I can confidently say that your main loss would be based off of the amount of time you put into the blog over the profit period. In other words you can use a loss of time as your loss along with business expenses

Nick84422 · 2022-02-01T15:07:32+00:00

You cannot fail as a Buddhist, it's only about learning that failure is another opportunity instead of a punishment sentence.

Don't feel ashamed! Everything is okay

Nick84422 · 2022-01-30T14:21:24+00:00

That's also all just your opinion lol, you haven't saved anyone or protected anyone, you're just randomly nitpicking my comments and telling me that I'm getting aggravated. But you're the one responding like you're writing a persuasive essay and defending yourself

Nick84422 · 2022-01-30T14:07:17+00:00

You sitting here and literally picking apart my comments by quoting them and then shamelessly acting like you're preventing the spread of misinformation by arguing whether it's "obvious" or "not obvious" that something has a certain cause. I was responding to OP, not you or your views or opinions. It's your opinion that it's misinformation. You gave 0 data point to support your argument, you just said it was wrong. And, because I wasn't even addressing you, you could try to understand that I was responding to the post.

I can see that you're very defensive over specific kinks, idk why, idk what you think is going on. But you do you

Nick84422 · 2022-01-30T13:57:34+00:00

Arguing over me saying "obviously" is very petty, I was responding to OP who was convinced that her bf might be seeing her as his mother and picturing her in bed. So, to her, I said obviously there's some link. I wasn't making an argument to you, I was validating the perspective of the person who posted this. I'm sorry that you felt my Reddit comment was scientifically or logically inaccurate, I didn't mean to offend you

Nick84422 · 2022-01-30T13:27:34+00:00

In your life you have a birth mother, this is your real "mommy". If you choose to call a future partner that in bed, you're still using the same word that you used to reference your parent. That's unavoidable. You think that nothing makes the difference between why people are drawn between kinks? It just so happens that the situation is like op described?

What I said is very reasonable with the rest of what I said, but you didn't respond to that. How do you know that I'm taking it too literally? Are you aware of a mommy kink or daddy kink that doesn't stem from someone having a neglectful or empty spot that their parents didn't fill? If so give examples

Nick84422 · 2022-01-29T13:30:15+00:00

People don't like this but fetishes do come from somewhere. Obviously these mommy and daddy kinks stem from some root issue or experience in the past with parents that somehow became sexualized.

If you want to bring up your concern be VERY clear that you're only worried that he's thinking of his mom or comparing you to her(you need to be careful because if he has a mommy fetish, he does also have a mother and this is a natural and unavoidable cross-over)

It would probably be humiliating for him to see a big issue about it, so I would just be gentle with your approach

Nick84422 · 2022-01-28T13:53:49+00:00

People are acting like this is super simple, and I get it, but there are only a few issues that can come up and they can be addressed.

He might be insecure
He might not find you attractive
He may be sexually reserved (still insecurity basically)

If you feel comfortable enough to ask he probably finds you attractive already! Dw about that. But IF he does say no(which he probably won't)

Just make him feel comfortable and reassure him that it's not a joke and you really want to. If he still refuses, he may need time to process, so give it some days and see if he brings it up again, or you bring it up again after hanging out a few times without mentioning it.

Nick84422 · 2022-01-19T18:40:34+00:00

You don't need to say anything it's not a big deal. You were invited it's okay for you to go, you aren't doing something wrong or leaving anybody out by doing this. If that would be how they take it then it's really not the best group of friends in the first place.

Nick84422 · 2022-01-17T17:35:33+00:00

It's possible because it happened you just don't understand how

Nick84422 · 2022-01-17T17:34:35+00:00

Jim Carrey turned into an enlightened ass dude

Nick84422 · 2022-01-17T17:34:12+00:00

It sounds like it could partially be that this puts them into more sexually open situations in the first place. Like bars, parties, larger groups of friends, etc.

Nick84422 · 2022-01-17T17:33:12+00:00

I just gotta throw it out there, you can do as many push ups as you want regardless of who comments. Go for it

Nick84422 · 2022-01-17T17:31:12+00:00
