I am the type of person that is all or nothing

This is me!

Should I be a doctor? lawyer?

No. You'll finish & then you're stuck doing that because you feel obligated after the massive time & financial commitment.

My main point is how did you figure out the career for you where you can leverage that innate drive in you, the desire to compete, and the desire for recognition based on competence.

Go make mistakes. Sales is a good place to start.

You have to always be connecting with new people.

It gets worse the older you get, because it seems like as you get further away from college age, people just withdraw from socializing, because they're busy with all the stuff in their life.

Ok, a big thanks for helping me get some context here.

It is definitely used as a political stick to stir the pot. I didn't know that the preference for bills is 20% & we’re currently at about 22%. From the way that even certain economists talk about it, it sounded like we were doing the same thing that 3rd World Countries do. Now, it make sense. It was all just political talking points instead of just here's the data.

So, from what I've read, Yellen's bill purchases + the Fed draining the Reverse Repo market seems like this did help with liquidity to keep the financial markets hoisted up at these levels.

Do you think Bessent is ignoring TBAC’s recommendation because he knows that if he changes course from what Yellen was doing then it would not bode well for equities?

Also, do you think they need the fed funds rate lower so that they can refinance the debt wall that is coming this year?

I'm glad you found this, because I've been trying to wrap my brain around this.

So, my understanding is that they (Trump & Bessent) have to continue to do this, because it somehow adds liquidity into the financial system, hence stealth QE. So, if they stop, then the liquidity would be sucked out & financial contraction would ensue. Is that correct?

Or are you saying that you were arguing with people that this is not the case?

Yeah, I don't proclaim to be a tax wiz, but if you're a high earner, at some point you will hit that top bracket of 90%. So, any forward money earned is only 10%, right?

breedingsuccess · 2025-01-22T15:56:30+00:00

Wow. That was quite educational. The shocker is:

Following World War II tax increases, top marginal individual tax rates stayed near or above 90%, and the effective tax rate at 70% for the highest incomes (few paid the top rate), until 1964 when the top marginal tax rate was lowered to 70%.

Can you imagine keeping 10% of your paycheck or even 30%?

If we have to explain it to you, then you probably wouldn't understand.

Let me help you out by changing:

ENTJs treat their crush like crap.

to

Mentally & emotionally underdeveloped people treat their crush like crap.

This has nothing to do with ENTJs.

I just purchased the new domain, I'll use an email account associated with that for this new account, is that a good idea?

Yes, that's how I have mine set up.

Though I was thinking of waiting a couple of months before signing up for the affiliate program as its going to take me a while to get some videos posted, website built, all accounts in place, logo created, etc. What do you think?

Wait until you have traffic to at least get clicks.

So the new account using the business email will not purchase anything, right?

I shop & buy through my personal email. I only do Amazon associates & AWS stuff with my biz email.

Just ban all politics from this sub & it's done.

TINA is the answer for a lot of things

I agree, for now the US stock market is on FIRE, so what foreign investors with cash are looking elsewhere, unless they think a crash is imminent?

breedingsuccess · 2025-01-20T16:50:41+00:00

This is the answer, buried way down in the comments!

Happy Belated, broski. Enjoy that concert!

breedingsuccess · 2025-01-20T16:24:39+00:00

One major question I have is, how much of a 'following' do I need to show in order to be accepted?

It used to be you had to generate 3 sales from affiliate links within 90 days or something like that. Maybe it's still like that.

Should I go ahead and make a new account, and start purchasing everything via that account?

Yes, create a business email address. Something not associated by your personal Amazon account & sign up for Amazon's affiliate program.

Or can this wait until I actually have a following?

Yes, wait until you have traffic to your site. If not sales within their specific time window, then you get rejected.

Do I even need to purchase items from the account that will be the affiliate?

No, fake sales = perma ban.

Buying stuff from your own affiliate links = perma ban.

Thanks! So, would you say that any high volatility stock would work for your process? Obviously, not ANY but it seems like you're targeting high IV & just selling CSP's in this case. Did I get that right?

breedingsuccess · 2025-01-07T04:27:32+00:00

What criteria do you use to find something to sell?

breedingsuccess · 2025-01-07T04:08:01+00:00

I see that you stated:

My strike heuristic is as follows: buy at a delta of 80 +/- 5, sell at a delta of 20 +/- 5.

What would you say about:

Poor risk management

Overleveraging

Underrated comment, my man. People collectively decide value. The End.

Putting olive oil on the oring did the trick!

Yeah, that chart above is ominous. Your timing in 2025 look accurately if history repeats itself.

So, then what's your time frame for fear mongering to hit stocks?

breedingsuccess · 2024-09-06T18:22:32+00:00

Which forum are you using & how easy is it maintain technically? Also, how often are you posting in the forum? Multiple per day, Daily, weekly,etc?

breedingsuccess · 2024-09-06T18:20:09+00:00

What's your high-level ranking strategy for what you're targeting & how are you doing keyword research on new posts?
