@EBvek1 Yeah but do you have any positions that are currently down? What you post just shows realized sales, doesn't mean you don't have positions in your portfolio that arent down.
@SteveOnSpeed We were fortunate enough to buy in 2012 at 24 years old. Now we're 38 house is paid off, have friends buying there first house who probably make 50k more a year then us who are in a far worse financial situation.
@SteveOnSpeed Hard to say. I think alot depends on home ownership and when you bought. If you bought a house in 2019 vs trying to right now middle class salary looks completely different
@pepemoonboy Agreed. I gave up climbing the ladder any higher and some income every year taking every summer off to spend with my daughter once she started school.
There are times I struggle knowing financially it hurts, but I do not regret getting to spend these summers full time with her.
@pepemoonboy What countries should be allowed nuclear weapons? Which ones can we trust not to use them?
Do you believe the united states is one of those countries?
@JustChasetob@Mr_Derivatives I would not recommend naked calls. At least make it a spread for protection. I have made money on naked calls plenty, but I sold two naked calls on CAR. got busy and forgot about them. End of day was down 8k. Ouch. Quick scalp turned to lots of pain
@ThetaHarvest@Mr_Derivatives Yeah I did. Wiped out all my short term gains for the year. Played it terrible to, but it was just to much to stomach. Whether I ended up right or not I should have never been in the position
