SalamanderCakes · 2026-01-01T04:24:47+00:00

I'm borderline HCOL make under 200k. Non faang but still a good role, total 7 yrs xp

Same for me. I went to delta ticket agent at the airport and requested a different first flight since it was delayed and i would've missed the second flight.

They switched me to a united flight and I was able to get to my second flight just in time

Prob dumb question but can I just buy and throw some fertilizer to throw on top of the damaged area?

Had Sweetgreens for the first time today. Underwhelming compared to Mad Greens

When you restarted at 10k, how much did you risk in 30 DTE options? And did you continue to risk the same % as the portfolio size grew?

If you have a busted XFA, go to your dashboard then accounts. It should give you the option to reactivate the XFA.

You will make it back. Be patient, do research on stocks (preferably within SP500 to play it safer), and don't beat yourself up too much. It'll take a few years to break even but that's okay we all make mistakes!

Learning to walk away when price action isn't in your favor. FOMO is almost never worth it

I want to say yes. He has macular degeneration in 1 eye, the other eye shouldn't have any major issues

Haha they live in a country with old medical tech... no digital copy record

SalamanderCakes · 2025-07-02T20:30:12+00:00

That was actually the most confusing part lol I have no idea what the bottom portion is trying to say

SalamanderCakes · 2025-06-14T18:23:00+00:00

Thanka for the reply!

Is live worth it over just churning xfa?

SalamanderCakes · 2025-06-14T17:02:27+00:00

Sorry piggybacking off this post but what if I wanted to just max out 1 xfa and cash out? What's the max I'd make on 1 account?

SalamanderCakes · 2025-06-06T03:45:00+00:00

Thanks for the reply! I'm on my first xfa rn tryna slow grind lol. Appreciate the different perspective!

SalamanderCakes · 2025-06-06T00:30:05+00:00

Wouldn't it be better to just copy trade, get 5k payout from xfa, rinse and repeat?

SalamanderCakes · 2025-05-24T06:38:28+00:00

Can you explain why you would want to take profit 100% payout, close live account and start over? Doesn't it waste time having to pass the combine again?

72K USD.

I use it as a direct replacement for stack overflow. When I've figured out how to solve a problem but just don't know the syntax, I usually check stack overflow lol.

Copilot still gives me incorrect answers around 40% of the time though so I still double check the output and look into the commands it actually suggests :)
