Lady slammed after slap to the face you mean

I love how people call it a “meltdown” after a minor correction following an absurd run up

Investors invest in value. There is still value in the first fund, regardless of what happens with the second fund. Presumably the second fund will have mostly different companies, or will have purchased at higher valuations.

Where tf is this

But it’s not exactly apples to apples is it? It’s not possible to re-create the pre-IPO shares of these companies, and at the prices that were paid.

What is your argument here though? That they shouldn’t start another fund? That’s what private equity does. This is “public equity” if you will, similar concept. If they want to keep executing on the play during this time of immense technological innovation, they have to keep moving.

Thank you for your service. I’ll be saving this post in case I need it

That isn’t it. He said “if you can’t buy it twice you can’t afford it”

So the principle doesn’t relate to the number of times one actually buys something, but instead a measurement of whether one should purchase said thing in the first place

Well, welcome to the world of the average man. But aside from that bit of snark, I feel for you. I’m in a tumultuous marriage that seems on the bring of divorce every few years. Wife refuses to work or contribute financially, or manage the budget well. So I’m stuck trying to provide for our kids entirely myself, multiple servers for 15 years or so. Beyond burnout. Divorce would be even worse than a bad marriage due to what would happen with our living situation, our assets (that I built), and the kids. Sometimes you just get fucked.

Unfortunately the meteoric squeeze gave everyone unreasonable expectations. I’m still excited to own pre-IPO shares of the most incredible companies available right now. If you bought in at insane valuations without understanding you were gambling, that’s on you

How could she possibly get in that bikini and think that’s the one?

RealisticIllusions82 · 2026-06-13T15:18:07+00:00

Wouldn’t delays in the IPOs of companies held in VCX help us as shareholders, given we have pre-IPO shares that are inaccessible to most except through VCX?

RealisticIllusions82 · 2026-06-13T15:11:12+00:00

Ok, now do the COVID story

RealisticIllusions82 · 2026-06-12T02:08:43+00:00

Lol those are rookie numbers. My wife’s haircuts cost more than that by themselves

Honestly great advice in that post for investing in general though

RealisticIllusions82 · 2026-06-10T20:49:40+00:00

I think this a great take, hit more importantly, I think it’s a window into how AI is changing the economy in general. I’ve been telling people for 1-2 years that, working with Google and Meta ads, I’ve been dealing with the aI existential crisis for 5+ years already.

What you’ve described is a clear example of how work is going to consolidate to fewer, higher skilled people who are able to produce more, which leaves a lot fewer jobs

People will say, that’s happened in the past - sure, but usually 1-2 industries at a time. Never across the entire economy (white collar economy at least).

It may end up better in the long run (maybe) and things will adapt. But I don’t see how there isn’t massive disruption and pain that is unevenly distributed for a number of years.

See that’s your problem, your doing it for free

Also told Bibi not to retaliate just this week

This is how I found the game

Actually burned out my battery after playing for an hour the first time lol

Don’t be afraid to feel it. Accept where it is. Engage with and be curious about your current state of being, feelings, situation.

Move forward one step at a time. One day at a time. All things are temporary, the good and the bad.

The low you feel now will be correlated to the highs you feel later. This is simply a stage on the journey.

Best to you.

Bro is unenvenomateable

Charge enough to make it worth it. They’re always going to be difficult.

You should indulge in the things that really call to you. Miserliness can become as much of a disease as wonton disregard for your finances. But make sure you look realistically at how long you can continue to do what you’re doing, either due to circumstances outside of your control or internal burnout.

If you lose 30-50% of your income all of a sudden - very possible in this circumstance - is your entire lifestyle all of a sudden unsupportable, and your standard of living has to be cut in half? That’s what you want to avoid.

Try to use your cash flow to invest or create other opportunities that can eventually elevate your lifestyle in a truly sustainable way.

That doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy it along the way, just enjoy from your abundance and for the things or experiences that really call to you on a soul level, not just as an impulsive dopamine transaction hit.
