Obtaining a graduate-level degree in anything and being this financially illiterate is a failure of the education system.
Finance should be given just as much time and importance as math, science, and reading.
For retail investors like myself, the plan is to buy and hold @SpaceX until their staggered lockup periods expire.
Exit position before profit selling, DCA after, then rinse and repeat before the next lockup period ends.
Interesting to see how this method plays out.
Thoughts?
@cmsinvests Simple; with new Finra rules in place allowing day trading with 2k in a brokerage account, it’s easy to see this going up a bit more before the lockup period for prior investors expires.
Exit before profit selling starts, then DCA the correction after each lockup period ends
USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving.
Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free.
I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these."
"They just come with the table, man."
They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner.
This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat.
I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared.
"Did we…?"
"Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless."
Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined.
My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude."
Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man.
I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy.
Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived.
I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most.
Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.
Stacey was one of a kind because his passion was authentic and his ability to connect with so many was genuine. His knowledge of the game sometimes got overshadowed by his catch phrases. But man, he knew ball. He welcomed me to broadcast side and made me better RIP to an original
@Stacey21King Passing away today hits different.
Grew up a 90’s baby, saw all of his live bulls commentary’s, specifically regarding @drose.
No se, what I do know is, nothing will be the same. @Drake
I didn’t realize how much he meant as both a person and an icon to the city
@LeopoldATracker Hit me!
Up 30% on a few of my investments from days prior.
Time in the market is essential, pero timing the market paired with your time in the market, is where the money at!
@sircalebhammer Dude, you’re single handily doing more for Financial education amongst Americans than American institutions.
Found you when I started taking financial accounting and it’s wild how they don’t teach what you preach in schools; it’s beyond crazy to me.
@sircalebhammer You’ll probably never see this comment, but you’re becoming one of my favorite influencers.
Just direct, real and not afraid to say the uncomfortable truths out loud.
When you’re like this, people will always try and label you when in reality, we just think differently.
@sircalebhammer@AndrewYang
Honestly thought it through and can’t think of anyone other than Andrew Yang who even then, is more center left then fully left leaning.
Kind of a sad reality we’re in huh
