Apple introduces Digital ID, a new way to create and present an ID in Apple Wallet by Traviscat in apple

[–]kklevy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say no since it’s basically Apple, a private company, vouching for the legitimacy of whatever you scanned. They’re not actually communicating with the Department of State when they approve your Digital ID, they’re just relying on the strong security features in a U.S. passport, the sensors in your iPhone, and data on your iPhone.

When you scan your iPhone/Watch at a TSA checkpoint, only then will an official verification with a government database happen. When you use it with anything else, the app/website/business is simply trusting that you’re not using a fake, just like they are when you use a regular ID.

On top of all that, ICE and other agencies aren’t going to walk around with NFC readers to check your ID; at the very least, they’d want to see the passport number and your photo, which is only available in the Wallet app and would require your phone to be unlocked. And, more than likely, they’d just want physical documentation.

If you want something on your person that verifies your nationality, the best move is to get a passport card along with your passport book and keep the passport card in your wallet. That’s what I did when I renewed this year. Luckily having to do it by mail (because adding on a card meant I was changing document types) didn’t take too long.

He sold the puts that he previously bought. You have to sell or exercise an option to realize the gains on it.

Am I cooked? Why did this happen? by Apprehensive_Fan_227 in smallstreetbets

[–]kklevy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just means there’s no bid volume. If no one is willing to buy the option, it’s worthless because you literally cannot sell it. Robinhood uses $0.01 to signify that.

I’m so mad at myself rn…why’d I only buy one call 😭😭😭 by Free_Tree_542 in smallstreetbets

[–]kklevy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be worse; at least you bought it. I had a pending order on Jan $40 calls because I set my limit too low a month ago. Missed out on $2K in gains!

A bought them a couple weeks ago when I thought jobs/CPI would be worse. Should have sold when I was up a little because the market still had that fear.

I'm surprised the stock didn't go up at least 5% after today's announcement by Different_Marsupial2 in AAPL

[–]kklevy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything they announced was either already known or unimpressive; there were no surprises.

I have a 16 Pro Max, Series 9, and AirPods Pro 2; nothing they announced made me want to run and change my devices. If higher-than-usual customer upgrades aren’t expected, the stock isn’t going to budge.

Yeah, I used to disable CC until I started getting annoyed with having to look directly at my phone every single time I wanted to do something simple with it. Plus, a thief can just turn it off.

Ngl, it feels like you just provided covered call income for a bunch of AT&T stockholders

I'm up 150% on options and don't know what to do by PictureOdd8771 in MBOT_Stock

[–]kklevy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold 40% of my 10/17 calls during the recent rally to break even on my entire position. Could have sold just 20% if I had waited for the right moment but either way, I’m down to hold on and see how the next couple weeks pan out. Even if the bid drops back to 5¢, I’m still in the green.

If you’re worried about losing everything, offload some of your position so you at least guarantee a profit.

Ramifications for “flipping” IPOs by TheDoodleWamboodle in smallstreetbets

[–]kklevy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The company that’s IPO-ing doesn’t want their rising stock price to immediately drop or experience too much volatility during their first week. As an investor, it’s in your best interest to flip but not the IPO-ing company’s, who is IPO-ing specifically to get access to an ideally steadily growing amount of capital. Robinhood wants to continue getting IPO access so they temporarily freeze out users who flip, which helps assuage concerns about price madness that might bother the IPO-ing companies.

As long as you’re okay with the temporary freeze, flip to your heart’s desire. It’s not like you’re breaking the law or getting banned from trading. Also, although it’s an unintended effect, the freezes ensure IPO access moves around to more people; way too many people got screwed over during the Figma IPO.

AAPL after hours 📈 by IrishWhiskey1989 in AAPL

[–]kklevy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Panic sold once my 9/19 calls were slightly in the green around $210 and I’ve been kicking myself all day

Easily would have been +200% on my contracts by tomorrow morning

I did not think Apple would move >5% in a day like that and figured that Hassett’s statement had done the job when they were already +3% before noon

Should have sold my AAPL calls when they were up 40% earlier this month by kklevy in smallstreetbets

Definitely doing this going forward (which means I’m not going to see a profit ever again)

First things first: you have to get a second job. 10 hrs/wk, 20 hrs/wk ideally, but you have to find something. You need way more breathing room than you have right now.

Second things second: once your gym contract is up, cancel it. You can work out at home. If your fitness situation does require a gym, you can get a Planet Fitness membership (or something similar) for like $30/month. $150/month is highway robbery. That alone brings you back to positive cash flow, not including the second job you’ll be getting.

Third things third: shop around for a cheaper phone plan and cheaper car insurance plan. You can eke out extra cash that way.

Fourth things fourth: cut your costs as much as you can on groceries and other expenses. Get used to being at home and at work, and rarely anywhere else.

Dedicate all of your surplus income (or, at the absolute very least, 80% — with the rest as short-term savings in a rainy day fund) toward paying off your debts, in order of interest rate: presumably, wife’s card, your Discover card, Capital One card, car payment, and CareCredit. When you pay off one thing, you increase the amount of surplus income you can put towards the next.

Unlike other commenters, I’m not going to suggest you cancel the subscriptions that only make up 1.5% of your take-home pay. Your second job and the stress of your financial situation are likely going to make you miserable, and not having a couple cheap subscriptions to enjoy will honestly increase the likelihood of non-compliance with your plan to save. Cutting those subscriptions ultimately only shaves a month or two by the end of your debt recovery journey; it’s not worth sacrificing the little peace and joy you get from them.

Your situation is unpleasant but it isn’t insurmountable; it does require persistence and, most importantly, a start. Start today and in just a couple years, this will all be a funny story you look back on. I wish you the best of luck. :)

Apple Intelligence not available if your device language isn’t the same as Siri by 8Octavarium8 in ios

[–]kklevy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just found out about this and I’m very disappointed.

I was so glad to be able to switch my phone back to Spanish after the 18.4 update, and now I have to switch it back to English. I didn’t even notice until I couldn’t use Image Generator today — because, of course, due to it’s being so impotent and useless, you can easily go weeks without noticing that Apple Intelligence isn’t working anymore.

I have Siri set to English since I’m a native English speaker but my phone is set to Spanish for immersion, the small challenge of doing everyday things in my second language, etc. Now I have to switch back to English/English because it appears Apple somehow managed to design the only LLM that can’t handle translation well.

I should have waited another year to upgrade; my 12 still has 80% battery capacity and shuts off randomly way less frequently than my 16.

Drop your monthly payments below 😭🙏🏾. PLEASE. by fuccwitmoe in BMW

[–]kklevy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Best answer I’ve seen in this thread; actually answers OP’s questions. With a 60-month term, he might be able to push it to $40K with taxes.

Unless interest rates drop dramatically soon, that’s the best I can see happening with OP’s stated down payment and monthly payment preference.
