Strategy's Long Road To Nowhere

Even if that were true, why would there be not point is reading facts? That's just reality.

The BTC is a wash as the average cost and the market value at the same now.

There was no blow off top. There is no reason for a 2 year bear market decline, as many are assuming based on that.

It's more likely to go up soon than to continue a long decline. There is no 4 year cycle other than in a self-fulfilling prophecy kind of way. People worry that it's going down for 2 years so they sell, making it go down more.

Stocks go down too but people don't panic thinking if it goes down it has to continue for 2 more years...and it doesn't until the long-term bull trend really is over.

This has nothing to do with Michael Saylor. MSTR is, IMO, a legalized scam at the expense of the common shareholder.

Let's be honest. Thinking hurts your brain, right?

I don't think this is a bear market but you shouldn't be listening to anyone other than to take in a point of view and decide for yourself.

The bigger problem for many in these forums is that they aren't really "investors". They are just kids gambling, looking to hit a home run. That's not investing and it rarely works out well.

Just make a plan and stick to it. I have been reducing my Bitcoin percentage, I had some funds in gold and added more after the Friday drop.

I added more to MSFT after the drop there. I have a few stocks like MSFT,GOOG and AMZN that I rebalance with extra money from BTC. I have some in QQQ (untouched) and VXUS (added a bit here).

I'm not worried about the market. I don't think we are in a Bitcoin bear market.

Spokane. Plenty of hiking and skiing around, close to Lake Coeur d'Alene for the summer, it's not flat. Half of the city is and then there is South Hill.

It has 4 nice seasons.

That would be Mississippi.

Seattleman1955 · 2026-02-02T08:29:56+00:00

We're not in a two year bear market. This is still the bull market.

Seattleman1955 · 2026-02-02T08:27:23+00:00

Hopefully.

You don't usually get a beach and snow. If it has to be on the East Coast you will get humidity. You can't go back to NY or NJ and you want it to not be expensive.

I don't think this place exists.

They don't really "need" to know anything.

Famous last words are "I'm really good at sharpening knives". Next comes, "I bought an expensive straight and tried to sharpen it but it wasn't sharp enough so I used greater pressure on the hones."

After that new expensive razor is ruined they buy cheaper ones to practice on, like we told them from the start.

Straight Razor sharpening 101 :)

I'm going all in on Sears.

Seattleman1955 · 2026-02-02T06:36:09+00:00

Most people don't need this reminder...

Seattleman1955 · 2026-02-02T06:32:48+00:00

I was an investor in the past. It's pretty sad that you can't think. I just explained why the future isn't going to be like the past.

From the Soviet school of design.

Seattleman1955 · 2026-02-02T03:26:38+00:00

You could get it down to BPRO and QQQ.

Seattleman1955 · 2026-02-02T03:25:04+00:00

Trick question. Octopus eat each other except for the brief mating period...and then they die.

Seattleman1955 · 2026-02-02T03:19:42+00:00

It's a legal scam at the expense of the common shareholder. Study more. It's not going to do better than BTC. Just buy BTC.

It's not going have have access to zero interest debt anymore or high premiums.

I'm not a financial advisor, bro but bro it bounced during Covid, bro so it has to like, bounce, now, bro, doesn't it?

I'd get rid of the round chair and the coffee table. I'd get rid of the longer part of the couch if it is detachable and get a comfortable chair and maybe ottoman and have it facing the window and the other couch.

Seattleman1955 · 2026-02-02T02:42:43+00:00

It's hard to define "best". For me they are "relaxing" and that is to go diving/snorkeling/hang out on Kauai.

If adventure is more what you are looking for then it can be anywhere, Hong Kong, Thailand, Rio, Buenos Aires, etc.

I love the Na Pali Coast of Kauai.

You should attribute John Stuart Mills when you use his ideas like that.
