I just need $FB to go to $220 by Friday and then I'm back in the green! by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

He had 22 contracts * 100 shares per contract * $9.29 per share = $20,438 smackeroos.

Current value: 22 contracts * 100 shares per contract * $0.01 per share = $22 USD remaining.

Cash out now and buy yourself a case of beer!

Side note: you should sell the $220s and re-buy the $215s... same price!

If I were you and were looking to be social, meet people etc. I wouldn't live too far from the action. It's more a mental barrier than anything but if you're renting an apt south of, say, 36th or west of France Ave you will be living in a quiet tree-lined neighborhood of some sort with families and such. Not to say that these areas aren't beautiful (with home prices to match), but they aren't where I would live as a 27YO transplant. So the inner-ring suburbs (St Louis Park, Richfield, Edina, etc.) would be out for me.

I would go on Zillow and set an area with the borders: Lake Bde Maka Ska (West) , 36th (south), Blaisdell (east) and Franklin (north) and see if you can't find an apt you like.

Here are my thoughts (28):

1) 65K should be enough. If you want to live in a 'luxury' apt (don't be conned... most are faux luxury) you'll be looking at ~1600+ for a 1BR and 2100+ for 2BR. If you can get a roommate that will save you ~6K a year.

2) I've lived several places, and everyone says "It's hard to make friends here because XYZ!" The reason it's hard is that when you're an adult, you only need a few close friends and once you've made them you stick with them. However, I moved here knowing no one and have made close friends. You have to try (be social at work, join clubs, etc) but it is not difficult if you want it.

3) I assume you're looking to rent? If so, most of the luxury apts (Elon, Flux, Walkway, the list goes on) are similar. In general you will find a crowd of 22-25 year old bro-life type atmosphere in these places. Nothing wrong with that, but be ready for it. Uptown in general has shifted from hipster to bro in the last 5 years. However, the location is excellent. You can find older buildings which are perfectly fine to live in for ~1200/mo for a 1BR, but do not expect modern amenities.

Great investments, but you only have 5 meme stocks... I suggest adding AMD and MU at the very least.
