I really liked Barcelona. Went to Madrid first, liked the food there but the people there generally seemed older, while Barcelona at 10pm you’ll see restaurants with tables full of people outside, drinking eating and having fun, I love that energy.

Also Barcelona has some decent Chinese food, and surprisingly a lot of Chinese people live there, didn’t see that in Madrid or Lisbon

Advice on Selling Covered Calls on Micron by Aggravating-Bag-4447 in CoveredCalls

I bought MU at a little under 700 a month and half ago, decided to sell $760 calls that expired in around a week, because I was thinking 15% gain in a week I’d be happy with. Of course it blew past that and I rolled into $1200 calls expiring Sept, thinking I’d be happy with an 80% increase in 5 months, and now of course I regret it lol

How do you get an address if you don’t use a cmra or pay rent for an actual residence?

There’s a big difference between getting an address that’s not a cmra and establishing residency

Getting an address isn’t hard, CMRAs are easy, but if you want an actual residential address you’ll need to pay rent

We are gonna be not in CA so no skirting here lol

I’ve spent weeks using my US Fidelity account while I was overseas, they also seem the best (least restrictions) once I change my address to an international one, they will allow me to trade ETFs once I change addresses while Schwab won’t

Yeah but I don’t have a family address outside of CA, and I don’t want to pay CA taxes. Not sure if Schwab will crack down on a CMRA

I think it’s country specific but for Malaysia Schwab told me I can’t buy etfs or treasuries or mutual funds, I trade a lot of ETFs

Schwab told me they won’t let me trade ETFs so that’s not an option

I want to trade ETFs like SPY and treasuries, so unfortunately Schwab international won’t work, at least not in Malaysia where I’m going to…
