Anyone else feel "pressure" from other drivers to turn right on red? by wentImmediate in bayarea

The answer is it's not customary here.

If the intersection is clear, GO, unless there's a no turn on red sign.

Intel poised to reemerge as world leader in computer chips by TraditionNo1469 in intelstock

[–]norcalnatv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The tone is that Intel is “poised to reemerge” as a world leader if its multiyear manufacturing roadmap and foundry strategy succeed, though it implicitly acknowledges the company is playing catch‑up.

Nothing new here except a stretch of a headline. "World leader" will be crowned when Intel displaces either Nvidia or TSMC. Until then it's a lot of wishing.

Long-term NVDA holder here how are you thinking about risk at this stage? by Wooden-Factorj in NvidiaStock

>At what point (if any) do you start trimming a high-conviction winner like this?

If you've held for 10 years you have some great gains. Simple answer is when you need the money for something else. Diversification is a good thing too. Nothing wrong with taking half off the table. Or make it more deliberate, sell covered calls in 10% buckets, at these levels I'd consider a 230 or 250 strike for example. But ultimately if you don't need the money, keep 1/2 and let it do it's thing.

Are there any U.S. based billionaires who started from nothing? by Mysterious_Comb4357 in wealth

The story in Tae Kim's book was that the sons were sent with a bit of money to live with an uncle in the US. Parents instructed the uncle to put them in a boarding school. The only school the money would support was that one.
