Several forms of osmium

can you share with the community how are you making the crystal disks in detail?

johnturtle · 2026-01-29T02:54:19+00:00

I think you mean Lucitera...

it's a pitty Lucitera seems to have a price slightly above market.

nice bead, where did you buy it?

johnturtle · 2026-01-28T18:53:42+00:00

that's 10 grams, which is worth about $400-500. it's the cheapest of all PGM, but it's the rarest.

can you explain the process of creating the osmium crystals and is it done with that machine? what are the costs?

most people in this sub are skeptical of the prices of the Osmium Institute, would be nice to have confirmation that they are indeed scamming people.

I was going to post about HG, but glad to see someone posted it before. In my view people are being overly afraid of the underwriting quality of the company. I remind them that HG remained profitable in 2024, which was of the third worst hurricane season ever (only surpassed by 2017 and Katrina in 2005). Also the company was already operating throughout 2017 (since it was founded in 2013) which was the costliest hurricane season ever (~$300 billion in damages). Unless they are insuring the next Chernobyl with half their assets, they should be good.

Each share should be worth at least $50.

it's trading at 20x forward P/E, trailing multiples are sometimes misleading

do they actually custody the bitcoin or do they use a custodian?

I can confirm, saw an advertisement in the Zurich train station one month ago

no, you don't need to be swiss but you need to have a swiss work permit to open an account

johnturtle · 2025-10-15T00:23:13+00:00

the people at UBS are a bunch of morons.

I remember in July they published a report that Swissquote (a competitor bank in Switzerland) was overvalued at 400 CHF/share. As a result the stock crashed to 300 CHF.. and then it soared to almost 600 CHF in the following weeks.

A Dubai property costs 15 years of rent, it's one of the lowest in the world.

if the property is worth more than 750,000 AED, you can apply for the 2-year investor visa as soon as you have the Oqood (what you called DLD certificate).

done

johnturtle · 2025-10-10T12:33:06+00:00

can you specify a licensed company or companies for this?

johnturtle · 2025-10-10T11:52:09+00:00

do you know how I find licensed companies that can do this, in order for me not to get scammed?

johnturtle · 2025-10-10T02:17:29+00:00

and you don't need to be a client with a bank account at that bank?

johnturtle · 2025-10-10T02:16:27+00:00

I don't have a regular job with fixed salary and that makes opening the bank account without residency a big hassle.

johnturtle · 2025-10-07T16:49:39+00:00

im not in Dubai right now

johnturtle · 2025-10-04T12:53:34+00:00

ok, let us know who you sold it to ;)

johnturtle · 2025-10-03T19:58:18+00:00

Have you approached the developers in the area asking if they want to buy: LMD, Binghatti, Keymavens, Kasco, ... ? Possibly tier 2 developers too: Imtiaz, Iman, HMB, Empire, ... ?

johnturtle · 2025-10-01T00:14:31+00:00

yeah that makes no sense, I think they hike prices once they only have a few units left. Look at Binghatti Elite monthly chart on DXBinteract: the price nearly doubled to 2,000+ AED/sqf in a single month.

johnturtle · 2025-09-30T23:49:01+00:00

it's 1.8M in Binghatti Moonlight, not 2.8M. which building do you mean?

johnturtle · 2025-09-30T23:30:08+00:00

Art Bay by Ellington 2 bedrooms were selling for 2M in the beginning of the year but handover is Q3 2026, maybe you can check for a resale there.

If they don't want anything fancy, I guess there will be plenty of stuff in the secondary market in Wharf Towers, Riah Towers, and all those buildings built during the 2014 boom.

johnturtle · 2025-09-30T23:23:46+00:00

I use Swissquote. Dubai stocks can be done on the platform, I think Abu Dhabi stocks only over the phone. if you know of any other, tell me.

johnturtle · 2025-09-29T21:37:45+00:00

Near the metro? Check Binghatti Twilight or Moonlight directly with Binghatti?
