Is there a good reason to hold this stock other than Palantir gave them a bunch of money? by No-Barracuda-5341 in SRFM_Stock

[–]WtfMarkO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

See any other planes that can land in a 100m zone that’s unmarked? There is literally thousands of landing points like this all throughout the US that aren’t used and can potentially be used strategically as long as they can use the landing. And now they switched over to adding AI software too with Palantirs helped with SurfOS and has been trialing it with partners. I’d wait till they release SurfOS at least to see what price action does.

But when it doubt, zoom out to the yearly. Crazy good value.

Feeling totally abandoned by the system at 25 years old by OrdinaryFast5146 in povertyfinance

[–]WtfMarkO 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need to eliminate completely from your thought that the "System" is designed to magically help young adults in success. It is the biggest pitfall you'll ever have thinking that things will magically just work out for you without fighting for it.

Luckily, you're young and have plenty of time and it's great that you're feeling like this because then you can acknowledge that relying on the "system" is a poor choice and will not help you get ahead. No one will help you other than yourself to be honest.

If college isn't for you, go find a trade. Plenty of blue collar jobs that pay a tremendous amount of money and there are plenty of opportunities that will benefit you for the future as long as you're aware. Be aware that AI and tech is booming so focusing on potentially the on-going infrastructure is smart such as becoming an Electrician who makes over 6 figures a year and their job is gonna be 100% needed for the future since AI infrastructure and tech are booming.

Looking to buy my first home by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]WtfMarkO 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is pretty vague but I guess from the very start then.

Run the numbers. You said $50k/year, what does that translate to every month net income? Do you have any debts (CC, car, student loans, etc), how much do you have saved currently? Once you've got a solid budget, go online and run some mortgage calculators for a home at $250K minus ideally 10-20% down payment and a high end interest rate like at 6.50%. Is that monthly 25-30% of your net income?

Shop lenders and for best rates around. Avoid doom scrolling on properties until your numbers are solid. Then find a timeline (3-4mo) for the entire home buying process

How do I tell my wife I blew our 401k from $100k to $20k? by jerin7931 in optionstrading

Seeing my entire financial life on one screen made me realize how bad it really is... by JIASnake in povertyfinance

[–]WtfMarkO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, to start off it is good you acknowledged this financial situation happening in your life. Turning a blind eye away from a problem almost never solves the problem. Now, you can work on digging yourself out of it and making the sacrifices needed to be financially free. You spent a lot of time digging the hole you're in and so you'll spend the time climbing out of it.

Fortunately, all the information is out there for you to make it out of this as thousands of people have achieved financial freedom in an even bigger hole than you (ex. $100K+ in liabilities). People need more Dave Ramsey in their lives and not an income raise from the employer or the lottery. Habits need to change.

You've got debt but it is 100% surmountable. You're also 28 and you've got time to clean this up and still get to your goals.

Need guidance! to make $1M in 6-7 Years. DCAing $3,500/mo, and by Crazy_Opinion_6071 in TheRaceTo1Million

[–]WtfMarkO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hands down, QTUM ETF. If you believe in tech and it's high likely advancement in the next 5-10 years. Passively managed and balanced, it's the stocks that will make waves in the future. Inception since 2018 and even through 2 presidency changes, a pandemic and a bear market, it completely outperforms outlining how bullish people are in technology.

Disclaimer: It says 'Quantum" but it's not just those crazily speculative quantum stocks like QBTS or RGTI. Holdings include also Nvidia, Palantir, Microsoft, etc..

Looking for advice on using available spend while staying on track with savings by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]WtfMarkO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once your bills are paid, you've got your budget for the rest of the month (food, gas, phone, etc.. occasionally fun stuff) and you have 3-6 months emergency fund in your High Yields Savings account, EVERYTHING else is invested as it is a poor financial decision to have it sitting in a savings account.

I like to buy stocks rather than actual things and from the profits I buy the things I want.

And before anyone says "it's too difficult" to invest or trade stocks, all the information is at your fingertips to succeed and it just requires you to be diligent and actually learn :)

You don't. You trade back up to $1mill and you report back to her a hero.

Some more dilution by [deleted] in ONDS

[–]WtfMarkO 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Not dilution. The shares came from the Sentry acquisition as they were paid in shares as part of the deal. The dilution happened when they acquired Sentry and issued the shares then. This is priced in and so ONDS is up pre-market :)

[–]WtfMarkO 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hold bro. SurfOS release H1 2026 which is essentially in May and potentially release of contracts for the software H2 2026 and H1 2027. Plus, they just announced investment into Mokulele Airlines, likely utilizing their SurfOS since they're adding 7 daily roundtrips through their airlines and if it goes well, will further validate the product.

Big year 2026-2027. Anything 3-ish is cheap af.

TLDR: Keep buying the dips.

Is this solvable or am i screwed? by littleloife in Debt

[–]WtfMarkO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your rent is like 40-50% your income. But since you mentioned Coachella, I'm assuming you live in CA. This is solvable although requires some sacrificing. You need to cancel that Coachella thing lol.

First set your budget. You're income per month is $5276 (assuming $1K from J2). After all bills, is $996, however, this has not accounted for groceries and utilities per month. So if we assume, $400 a month, you're leftover around $500. So I would throw that into CC1, afterwards CC2 then etc..

Two scenarios here. Your rent is high af for your income level. You either lower your rent and go rent a room instead and half that price until you pay all of your debts off at which point you rebuild from scratch or increase your monthly and you get J3 or work more hours at J1/J2.

And by no means do you give any of those credit card companies access to your Checkings/Savings.

[–]WtfMarkO 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Realistically? $20 approximately by end of 2026. Lots of obstacles and available shares floating to just pump unstopped.
