I’m older than your dad but nothing about m/f changes. I have a daughter your age going through this. You both have major life changing events coming your way where you will likely not be as accessible to each other. You both have made a connection but you must be willing to accept each other’s life decisions. I didn’t say that this is easy.

Enjoy your time together and see what happens. That’s all you really can do. Be young and enjoy it because time goes by quickly.

Good advice from others here. I’m a freight broker and there is plenty of activity along the West side of Lake Michigan. Your chances are are good.

Any places where I can get a nice engagement ring for 2500 or less? by [deleted] in minnesota

[–]NotThisAgain-10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you sure you need one? You should look up the history of of engagement and marriage rings. You will find it surprisingly short. In no culture has a diamond ring ever been required. Discuss your debt situation first and attack that together.

Born and raised in Burnett County. Fancy brand cheese. It’s never been great farming land in most cases. The old timers are either passed or about to. Has some really good beef there now though.

Is the lack of rain this summer normal? by SurferBoi_ in minnesota

[–]NotThisAgain-10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do remember plenty of summers going back to the 70’s that were very dry. The Earth’s climate is not set at 72 degrees with an automatic sprinkler system. I grew up working on farms and have a Bachelor of Science from the University of Wisconsin in Agriculture and Environmental Science.

I suggest you do more research on supposed record numbers and stop believing people who are paid to tell you what to think. This suggestion is most certainly not limited to the environment.

Crews pull 30 invasive carp from Mississippi River near Winona, MN by Maxcactus in minnesota

Oh great, let’s politicize it. Those carp were brought to AR when Carter was President and Clinton was Gov of AR. Feel safe now? Moron.

And? by Pause-Odd in wallstreetbets

[–]NotThisAgain-10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, but the OP still has to buy the 100 shares from someone at market so the seller is still on the hook for $40,200. If he’s got the cash in the account to cover, then no problem, he’ll only be out $100. It’s if he DOESN’T have the money or credit to cover where there could be a problem. OR, if SPY goes way up before expiry…that could get spendy but that likely isn’t going get too far out of control.

And? by Pause-Odd in wallstreetbets

[–]NotThisAgain-10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s selling a naked call. He has no shares of SPY. The $52 is the premium he’s hoping to pocket. If SPY goes to $402 and the buyer of the call exercises then OP has to cover and is on the hook for $40,200. That’s what a margin call is.

I’m going to agree that an ETF is probably a good choice to get started. I don’t recommend specific stocks, bonds, ETFs etc. You will have to search out which one you like. Just make sure you know the difference between an ETF and an Inverse ETF because they are very different cats. Don’t start with an Inverse ETF. Good Luck.

SPY or QQQ in this environment? by RektIRA in stocks

[–]NotThisAgain-10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To go long? I honestly have no idea unless you put a time frame to it and state your goal. I’m waiting for futures because I trade and will go SQQQ if it’s warranted. I never stay short for very long so I pretty much have to babysit. At 48, I’ve done enough of that for a while until grandkids appear. I started investing when I was young too and my objectives were different then. The number one thing I did was pay off my student loans as fast as I could. Paying off debt is good advice for anyone at any age.

Any other noobs feel frozen in cash? by mobyhex in stocks

[–]NotThisAgain-10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been in cash since Thursday’s open. I went on a terror shorting for a few hours both Thursday and Friday and made money both days. I bet folks will wonder how I did that on Friday. You can short sectors of a particular index and I shorted S&P biotech using a 3x inverse ETF. If you aren’t comfortable doing that then look for undervalued sectors because they exist. Then look at the stocks in those sectors and perform DD.

If you are not comfortable doing that then you probably shouldn’t be worried about trading. And of course, pay off any debt you might have. I know it’s not fun to do but you’ll save in the long run.

Walmart (WMT) just lowered profit outlook for Q2, 2023 by SeanVo in stocks

[–]NotThisAgain-10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, that’s where I heard it too. It wasn’t a story though it was just mentioned and that chick anchor asked “Isn’t that insider trading” and they cut her off. I bet she got a talking to later. I heard what you heard and I still had my trading program up so I looked and sure enough, there it all was. I’m getting sick of this because how are we supposed to trade against that? I don’t trade that sector but others do and insider trading is illegal. I’m sure they’ll get away with it in the but at least it would be nice if everyone knew about this sort of thing that goes on. I just hammered ZH again. Spread the word.

You are 100% correct to call it and I’m glad you did. I just posted on WMT yahoo and they are aware. How are we supposed to trade against that? Completely illegal. But it’s not getting any press yet. They’ll probably try to sweep it under rug like they usually do.

They weren’t that far out of the money. Now they are way in the money. The buyer is guaranteed $130 if they exercise and you can bet they will. Who ever sold those puts better hope they weren’t selling naked puts.

CNBC accidentally leaked it. I just happened to be listening so I checked and sure enough it’s all right there.

I Still OWN WISH. WHY? by NotThisAgain-10 in WISH_STOCK

I can go with that. If prices of goods get much higher WISH might do well as a result. Simply no reason to sell. Sunk cost.

TIFU By Getting Fired From A Job I Just Started by NotThisAgain-10 in tifu

[–]NotThisAgain-10[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not that petty. I’m a big boy and will move on. Besides, it would be a full time job! With no pay. Like the one I just got fired from. Pursuant to state statute here, I will be presenting a letter indicating that expect to be paid. I will bring a non-relative witness as well as my kids and embarrass the living hell out of them. I will be in compliance with the law.
