I have Charles Schwab too and I had to deal with this a bit ago too. U were marked as a day trader and as a day trader you must have an account minimum of 25k. U don’t owe them anything but it’s a restriction on your day trades. It’s silly the way they show the message
## Speaker_1: ##
you got it! :D first person to see what's happening here
## Speaker_2: ##
OP you've been day trading with only $3k?
## Speaker_3: ##
I unironically daytrade with €3k. If you trade in a volatile stock like MU, you can often gain between 0.5 and 1% in less than an hour, not a bad hourly salary if it were your job.
## Speaker_2: ##
Ok what do you pay for broker fees though? Broker fees in the US usually make day trading really difficult with that little money. OP said he uses Schwab, which charges $5 for every trade.
## Speaker_4: ##
Even half a percent on 3k is 150. Then minus 5 for buy and 5 for sell, you still made 140. Or am I being retarded
## Speaker_5: ##
1 percent of 3k is $30, so half is $15, minus $10 for fees is $5
## Speaker_4: ##
Yup I’m retarded.

Holy shit, if the Volcker rule gets repealed, banks are gonna go ham.. Dodd-Frank might be heavy handed, but it's actually kinda fucked up if he repeals it fully.

Except it's faster, prettier, easier to use, cheaper, more water resistant. Etc.

Not prettier, it's easiness is arguable, definitely not cheaper, and it copies the water resistant feature from other phones. The green text is spot on.
## Speaker_1: ##
lol well it's definitely cheaper. If Apple copied water resistance than android copied everything else. And yeah, for most people who have any style at all, it's universally agreed upon the iPhone line is much prettier.

My conclusion is that this is possibly the safest way to make money. The information is there but there's a 2-day delay on the market. It's like knowing the future. Just throwing this out here for anyone wanting to make money by using the safest possible method. Also in case someone codes an algorithm to automate this, which would be absolutely awesome.
## Speaker_0: ##
Except you have to know what to be looking for.
You are saying this works because a hurricane rolled up and insurance companies shit the bed.
Using google trends is a good idea, no doubt. My 2 cents is that I think you are over estimating how "safe" this analysis will make
your trades.
Best of luck though.
## Speaker_1: ##
I checked for the Hermine Hurricane (I think that's its name), and it would've worked then as well. Which is why I'm saying it's fairly safe.
## Walls1337bot: ##

## Speaker_0: ##
Why do people always make these silly comparisons. If you're willing to put in 12 hours of hard, skilled manual labor every day 6 days a week, then you will certainly be able to support a family. If you're decent you can make more welding than you can as a medical doctor. Many people would rather take the easier path, and those with resolve continue to make the money they need.
## Speaker_1: ##
I'm not a LSC type but really, all you need to do is look at the wage data from back then, shit was lucrative. My grandpa stepped out of high school into a factory job and could support a nice home and several kids as a teen. UNSKILLED labor. That is simply impossible today in the US.
But that's largely because the US was intact and humming at a time when the rest of the world was in shambles from WW2 and Soviet takeover. Everyone, EVERYONE bought our shit. But everything regresses to the mean, and it didn't help that our government slowly sold out our economy to boot.
## Speaker_0: ##
Finally somebody with a reasoned analysis. Yes, the economy is not where we would want it to be. Unskilled labor was certainly more lucrative back then (although it's really an unfair comparison, as new industry classes form each decade. Unskilled labor is largely automated). That said, I don't think that the economy owes me anything. I'm not raising my pitchfork and blaming all my financial shortcomings on an economy that 99.999% of people (like myself) couldn't even fully explain. I'm also not looking back at decades past with a jealous gleam in my eye. I would trade advanced heart surgery for labor costs any day.
## Speaker_1: ##
Yeah, I feel similarly. Contexts change, and being a dynamic person is far more important than just hoping and praying for some economic sweet spot to hit again. I'll support and vote for things that I think help America in general but I'm not counting on that golden era to return, and it's important to remember that the rest of the world was poor as shit at the same time so our idea of "normal" was pretty damn skewed. Life isn't easy.
## Speaker_0: ##
Bill Gates has a very good book he recommends reading. It talks about his perception of what the future will be, and how there will essentially be a "useless class" which would comprise most people. Only a few people would be actively contributing to society, because intelligence would be the primary barrier. The government would have to support completely the "useless class". The logistics of this concept are yet unsolved. Coming from someone like Bill Gates, this idea is truly terrifying. What's more concerning to me, though, is that almost everybody seems to feel entitled to government aid. Even on my comment thread alone there is a lot of blame being casted externally.
## Speaker_1: ##
Slowly but surely processes that require the least brain power are being automated so by design it's going to disenfranchise portions of the population stratum by stratum.
That is kind of why I vehemently rail against any form of aid that isn't for serious needs. People need to work and at least maintain the impression of use. There are still a ton of useless jobs today and most offices feature one or two individuals who do 75% of the work while 10 others do almost nothing but I still consider this system superior to total dependency as it maintains levels of separation between powers (business/citizen/government sector).
The moment you become totally dependent on any of these you become their slave, basically. In your vote and in your life. r/LSC is full of fools who think the moment the government owns >50% of the people we are headed for utopia and not the thing that happens every other time: authoritarianism and abuse.
## Speaker_2: ##
I don't quite get your argument. Technology is slowly but steadily making more and more people useless, so we should give less people aid? What exactly happens to the people that are now useless?
## Speaker_1: ##
They are slaves, ideologically and existentially. They can't vote or believe in anyone but the hand that feeds and controls them, and that same hand can get rid of them or use them as they please. Leverage is totally gone.
The fallacy is believing any major entity can be naturally benevolent, if anything they trend towards corruption and abuse because the corrupt/abusive naturally gravitate towards power and where it is greatest. We've seen it time and time again in basically any authoritarian government ever. ("not real socialism!"x100, well that's because the socialist system is a breeding ground for sociopathic abusers and the founding fathers proposed separation of powers/checks and balances precisely due to that)
So yes it seems kind of silly to dole out menial jobs to people but the principle underpinning this is that they get something of a choice in how or who pays them and then that entity (a business) answers to the government who answers to the people. Rather than this hyper centralized closed system where one entity does everything and controls everything.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Your solution is a contradiction to the problem you describe.
You don't want people to be reliant on the government (that they elect) for feeding them, but you are ok with them being beholden in the same way to private companies. Companies who literally kill babies if they aren't told they can't by a government with big enough guns to force them to listen. interesting....

Man bought a ticket. Showed up early. Boarded. Was polite to everyone. United overbooks and needs 4 spots given up so some emloyees flying stand-by can be on the flight. Computer randomly selects man to give up seat and he refuses. They had offered everyone $800 credit and nobody took it. Why didn't they just keep upping the offer? They quit after going from offering $400 to $800. Eventually somebody would have accepted a high enough offer. This man was a doctor of all things. Maybe he HAD to be on that flight. Even if it was me, I would have refused. United overbooked. Let those stand-bys miss the flight. They couldn't take a later flight themselves? If not let the airline find somebody to cover their flights shifts.

Well if the merger goes through its a minimum pay out of 6.50/ share. I'm averaged at 3.47. so about 87% return?? Did in my head. Merger will be blocked or approved on July 7th. Deal will close on July 31st, if approved. I also have several calls for July 21st I believe. It's definitely a binary play. I personally think it'll happen but I admit I could be wrong. If it doesn't happen my calls will be worthless but I'LL still have stock. I think it'll rebound or attract another offer. So I'm okay with the money I have in as it's discretionary.

You got it. See some of my other more serious comments I've made on RAD. FTC is the only thing that matters at this point.

One is a member and Democrat. In order to block it has to be a 2-0 vote against the merger. Pm me for more. Will answer in the am. Out drinking currently. I will admit at this point it's speculation.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Thanks for the info.
I'm going to look at the Vol.
I may buy the stock and sell Calls, if Vol is high.
Just looked...
Buy the stock at $3.00. Sell the January 18 $3.00 for $1.00. Downside protected by 33.3% and upside of 33.3%.
If it doesn't go there way, buy back the calls. Hold the stock. Sell calls until it gets called or my basis is $1.00. Then sell the stock and sell long dated $5.00 puts and wait. Too lazy to do the math but basically, I'm getting paid to sell $5.00 but my "real basis" is likely close to $0.00 at that point. Any deal prior to expiration pulls all the time value forward.
I could be risky and buy the stock at $3.00, sell the January 18 $3.00 for $1.00 and buy 2 July 21 $3.00 calls. Then my delta is 1-0.65+(2*0.59)=1.58.
If it goes to $6.50, I would make $700 on a $300 investment. If I just bought 200 shares, I'm making $700 on a $600 investment.
So, 167% and potentially bag holding $600 or 233% and potentially bag holding $300.
Looks good. I'm in.

## Speaker_1: ##
Now imagine you rode a bike instead! Near infinite returns!
## Speaker_2: ##
Infinite returns you say? I will have to look into this "job" you speak of
## Speaker_3: ##
Don’t forget the bike (-$250).
## Speaker_4: ##
Infinity minus 250 is still infinity
## Walls1337bot: ##
Yeah, but you have to pay to maintain/repair the bike and probably eventually replace it, so you'd have to account for depreciation. Plus the opportunity cost of that $250 will continue to grow each year.

are all boomers retarded?
## Walls1337bot: ##
It's a group of people that gave participation trophies to their kids and then blamed their kids for getting participation trophies.
It's a group of people that brainwashed their kids into going tens of thousands of dollars into debt for college and then bitched that they weren't buying houses or cars.
Boomers are retarded.
## Speaker_1: ##
Yeah see how far you get in your career without a degree. Not the boomers fault you were predestined to be a manual laborer.
## Walls1337bot: ##
You really just don't understand my comment do you? It is just beyond you isn't it?
## Speaker_1: ##
I think I do. I just disagree.
## Walls1337bot: ##
I don't think you do. You seem to think that I am casting an indictment of college degrees, if you don't think that then your comment makes no sense. And if you do think that then you simply didn't understand.
## Speaker_1: ##
The idea that they brainwashed anyone into going to school and taking out debt is ridiculous.
If you don't want to go to school don't. If you don't want to take out debt go to a cheaper school, get a scholarship, work through school.
It's just misplacing blame for stupid people doing stupid shit.
I could have been clearer in my first comment.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Ya, you really did not understand.
Your first sentence tells me you didn't come of age in the 90s so I can appreciate you not knowing better.
I am not really sure how to explain it better but here goes a try . .
It is entirely on the boomers that they put as much pressure to attend college on their children as they did.
It is entirely bullshit that as a demographic they then faulted the follow on generation for not taking on the same levels of debt for things like homes.
The problem, which you are not understanding, is that the same group that convinced children to undertake massive debt has the capacity to further complain that those same people are not spending on big ticket items in other areas.
If you do not understand this I can't help you. Good luck.

My IRA is up over 15% this morning. It's a Roth IRA so I'm not paying any taxes on these sweet sweet gainz. Fuck you, Uncle Sam, I'm retiring a trillionaire.
## Speaker_1: ##
? Don't you pay your taxes up-front on Roth IRAs? I thought that was the benefit so you don't have to pay them when you pull-out when you're old and crusty.
## Speaker_0: ##
I paid income taxes on the money. That's the "up front" taxes that I paid. All capital gains are tax free within the account, and remain tax free if I make a qualified distribution (i.e., retire)
## Speaker_2: ##
Sorry, I don't know anything about IRAs. So why wouldn't everyone just use them opposed to normal accounts? What is the trade off?
## Speaker_3: ##
You can't take the money out until your like 60 or something otherwise you get get hit with a penalty. You can only take it out to pay a medical bill or buy your first home I think. Otherwise it's pretty much untouchable
## Walls1337bot: ##
This is half right. You can take out the principal, but not the earnings. You then lose the opportunity to put back in the contribution of any principal withdrawal.
Ex: say max contribution limit is 5k per year. I contribute 5k per yr for 4 yrs and zero growth = 20k. In year 5, contribute 5k and then roth doubles to 50k. I could withdraw up to 25k penalty and tax free. Can I then add back in 25k? No. How much can i contribute in year 5 now? Zero, bc you already contributed 5k. How much can I add in year 6? 5k.

I’m new here... when you go negative like this buying options does that mean you are in debt / have to pay it back or is it just like a whoops no more trading for you until you fork over 60k type of thing?

If you go under by a lot it will be treated as a debt to your broker.
## Speaker_2: ##
What's a option called that can't go negative, ie you loose 100% but never more than that?
## Speaker_3: ##
Covered options.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Not quite. Buying (Long) a Call or a Put can never go negative. You can go negative only if you Sell (Short) a Call or Put and don't have the stock/cash to cover the shares that your short Call or Put represent.

He had an insanely-high short-TSLA submission ratio (to the point where people started calling him out on it and figuring out who was paying him) and then started contributing actual market news, in an effort to dilute his submissions.
It was just hilarious to see a fresh TSLA bull start to engage this guy and he would just REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE so hard, and any time the Bull brought on good points, ol' Bitty would reply with a barrage of insults at the person's intelligence or just call Elon Musk "Enron Snake Conman" over and over.

## Speaker_1: ##
Are Japanese and Korean companies like Yamaha and Samsung not pulling it off?
## Speaker_2: ##
South Korea is on a whole different level. When I was there, there was essentially like 5 companies that ran the entire country. Samsung is almost 1/3 the GDP of the country and is literally in everything if you boiled it down enough. It's like if Google got into Healthcare and Defense, large ass tech company that creates tanks and hospitals. Then you have large conglomerates such as LOTTE that is like if Walmart ran everything from corner stores to amusement parks and malls and also owned television stations.
Pretty much what the US would be if the Feds allowed any aggressive takeovers and acquisitions without getting involved. You have dozens and dozens of sub-subsidaries and they're all owned by giant corporations or some shit.

You can argue that we should not have minimum wage, but all that will arise in is near slavery as costs of living continue to rise yet wages remain stagnant.
## Speaker_0: ##
Well yeah I would say it is the main driving force, if it was cheaper to employ a person instead of a robot they wouldn't be moving towards automation.
## Speaker_1: ##
Well whats your stopping point? Humans are not going to compete with automation for long. How low should minimum wage go to keep competing with machines? Surely if we could pay workers 1 dollar a hour, it would certainly compete with machines. Right? If we could pay workers one dollar an hour, then technology would stop improving! We wouldn't have to worry about increasing efficiency rendering human labor obsolete!
## Speaker_0: ##
Minimum wage should be 0, that's my stopping point.

How can you trust someone with billions of dollars who refuses to answer questions by analysts because they're 'boring'? Or who seemingly thinks of a new dumbass project to play around with every other day? If I was gonna invest in a company, I'd like the CEO to focus on running it and not founding a hat company one day and a space company the next and a candy company the next. And I'd like him to answer my fucking questions. And I'd like him to engage in an actual conversations with critics and take their suggestions instead of making fun of them on Twitter so his cult following abuses them.

And tell them your tired of paying the bandwidth costs of your neighbors Netflix streaming and to end NN now.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Arbitrary af. How do you earnestly valuate bandwidth? Verizon/Comcast get paid shit loads to deliver services and then don't (VZ more than Comcast, IIRC). Information is not a typical commodity, and to allow it to be treated as such is such a damn travesty. We'll soon have China's internet freedoms, but instead of the gov't, it will be our feudal telecom giants...
TL;DR
Q: what is this avg cost of a customer's 50/50mb/s plan, to a telecom compared to 1000/1000?
A: negligible. If anything, the customer's electric goes up.
Or, stick to finance, because you don't know shit about IT.

Something tells me this administration/Congress doesn't give a shit about antitrust laws.
>So why don't they just do that rather than regulate the entire market. Let's use the laws we have the books before we go throwing capitalism out the window.
Laws don't mean much, these days. That being said... We don't let domestic Natural Gas providers jack up rates 400% during the winter.
Obviously, telecoms are not FAANGs... However, the principles on existing regulations remain the same.
Laissez faire internet ≠ The Internet ©
This is about the principles on which NN regulations rest (ethics), not our economic system. Comcast/VZ have been doing just fine, and they will continue to do so, regardless of the FCC's decision. Whether or not consumers will be fucked or not remains to be seen, but I tend to side with the EFF on these matters.

When it comes to stock that is readily available and publicly traded it really isn't complicated.
If you've lost money you've lost money.
If the stock goes down there's nothing you gained over simply having waited and then buying the stock now that it has decreased in value.
## Speaker_1: ##

## Speaker_3: ##
you mean throw more money into the stock to balance out his average buying price? it would be a bold decision, and i dont know details about the stock but you would have to ask yourself independently of his original purchase, "is this a good company to invest in for long term growth at this price", and go from there.

How the fuck does it go up on cut guidance and missed revenue????!!!
## Speaker_1: ##
looks like they beat by 6c
## Speaker_0: ##
You retard, I said Revenue, not EPS. Earnings doesn’t mean shit for a company like this because until they are profitable, everything gets put back into the company and no dividends are paid.
Revenue is HUGE for a company that isn’t profitable, especially when they miss on revenue. If they can’t increase margins, they need to increase revenue. Below estimates proves that they are becoming even less profitable
## Speaker_2: ##
This might make sense normally
But Tesla revenue is production constrained, not demand constrained
If it turns out that they're heavily discounting S and X, that might be a bigger issue
## Speaker_3: ##
Great, let's assume that TSLA corners the 30-40 thousand dollar car market in the US. How many units of demand is there per year for this price point?
## Speaker_4: ##
$35k is the average vehicle sticker price in 2017. Overall sales declined in 2017 for the first time in a decade and companies are lowering guidance further for 2018 (by as much as a million less cars sold). Trucks are doing well tho.
Of course none of that matters when you make 1000 cars a month.
## Speaker_5: ##
The TSLA business model isn't really oriented towards selling cars to consumers.
The long-term play is 100% a centrally owned ridesharing drone fleet. The kind of place that can afford the infrastructure for these cars to roll up and have the machine hot-swap the battery so they can keep on rolling without any limitations from the small battery.
Focusing on cars sold to consumers is an inherently short-term metric.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Did you listen to the conference call?
Musk said Tesla's value isn't about their cars at all, it's their factory. And their self driving cars are way ahead of losers using LIDAR. So far ahead in fact that Tesla could have completed that coast to coast autonomous drive they said was going to happen last year, but decided not to because they'd have to cheat with their code, but that definitely for sure will happen in 3-6 months. And owners of their cars will turn their Teslas into autonomous taxis when they're not using them.
I'm 100% not exaggerating, all of this was said during the conference call today.

## Walls1337bot: ##
Market was bull because of Obama's economy. Not sure why anyone thought this clown would be good for commerce.
## Speaker_1: ##
You are stupid to think that the tax cuts and deregulation didn’t contribute to the continuation of the bull market.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Those tax cuts only passed December 20th, so whatever impact they had - it certainly wasn't long lasting.
## Speaker_1: ##
The market has already priced in the future impacts. The stock market does not reflect what is happening but also what is going to happen. Why do you think the market dropped despite the fact that no tariffs have been passed?
## Walls1337bot: ##
The tax proposal wasn't even unveiled until November. Unless you are trying to make the argument that the market reacted before the unveiling because the Republicans held power - which would seem silly, because annual returns under the past 15 presidents are higher under Democratic presidents than Republican presidents.
In any case, "continuation of the bull market" really doesn't matter unless you've liquidated before it crashes. Cheers.
## Speaker_1: ##
Trump was the one of the very few presidents since FDR to pass meaningful tax cuts. To think his influence would be the same as other Republican presidents is ideological based and not policy based. Also the fact that people vote Republican in good times and Democrats in bad times contributes to the phenomenon you are describing - Democrats literally “buy low” on the stock markets.
## Walls1337bot: ##
If by meaningful tax cuts you mean adding trillions of dollars to the deficit that the middle class is going to have to pay for in the future. Sure. That's meaningful.
Don't think I haven't noticed that this argument has turned from "The market is reacting to the tax cuts" to "The tax cuts are a good thing." It's not really on topic nor does it matter.
## Speaker_1: ##

I've been saying for weeks it's FUCKING SUICIDAL to short the market right now. We're edging up on the 2100 resistance level. When that breaks, expect floodgates.
## Speaker_0: ##
Could you please elaborate as to why?
## Walls1337bot: ##
Because fundamentally the US economy is relatively strong while most of the negative news has been driven by international concerns and outright manipulation on the part of the Saudis. These things have an impact, but overall, we've seen very good employment numbers and steady if not slightly improving manufacturing data. Combined with Mama Yellen's dovish stance towards interest rates, and we have a situation where the US economy is poised to show strength for the near-to-mid-term.
http://www.economywatch.com/news/US-Economy-Surges-on-Higher-Incomes-Manufacturing-Data0404.html
The market panic we had in Jan/Feb seemed like just a rehash of the panic we had in Aug/Sept of last year, in both cases driven by negative news coming from China. When the dust settled, though, things just kind of resumed course as nothing really fundamentally changed in the US economy.
We may be due for another big correction when the world economy finally starts to drag us down, but that is a possibility down the line, not for the foreseeable present.
## Speaker_0: ##
First, thank you for taking the time to write that and provide a citation, I appreciate it, and I agree.
My inquiry was more so the significance of the 2100 resistance level and how breaking that opens flood gates.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Oh, that one is actually very simple. We've been rejected from the 2080-2100 level multiple times (see: http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=spx ), so we can consider that to be a pretty solid resistance zone. Once that resistance is cleared, it typically becomes a level of support. It's basic chart reading but it also has a lot to do with human psychology.

if you support him, then good for you. If you dont support him, then i hope you have atleast been using this opportunity to make some money.
## Speaker_1: ##
Exactly. I don't support him, but I hope his generally level-headed (if hilariously-ironic) speech tonight will be good for the market.
On the flip-side, I was really hoping for more *specifics*, and his lack of any details might turn the market off.
## Speaker_2: ##
I voted for him because he'll be great for stocks. Don't really give a shit about Muslims, abortion, gay marriage, or illegals. Some people want to support Islam, abortion, and gay marriage (those three together being TRULY hilariously-ironic), I vote for the markets.
## Speaker_1: ##
> Don't really give a shit about Muslims, abortion, gay marriage, or illegals.
I care quite deeply about all these things. I'm just saying my opposition to Trump won't stop me from making money in this bizarre marketplace.
## Speaker_2: ##
>Don't really give a shit about Muslims, abortion, gay marriage, or illegals.
>I care quite deeply about all these things
And that's hilariously ironic. It's like how do you get a rooster a fox and a sack of corn from one side of the river to the other if you can only take one at a time and you cannot leave the rooster and the fox on the same side of the river. Except it's like there's two roosters and one fox - you can't leave the fox on the riverbank with the rooster.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Are you under the impression that you can't support all these things because they don't support each other? That's like saying you cant like candy and brushing your teeth. They're total opposites! How can you love all your children when they don't even like each other?! Wuhhh!?

> Autistic on the other hand, they don't know how others feel, but they do care equally about their well being. Once they find out empathy is needed, they look for a solution.
Jesus Christ... Am I on the spectrum? This is making me seriously ask questions.
## Speaker_1: ##
Same. I've joked for years that I'm a mild 'sperg. An ex genuinely thought I was on the spectrum. Probably am.
## Speaker_2: ##
Called being a male. Unfortunately, in America you have all become emasculated. Much like American girls are like boys. They are aggressive, play competitive sports, foul mouthed, etc. There is a reason that over 90% of K-1 Visas (marriage visas) are given to foreign females.

I'm pleasantly surprised to hear you degenerates know that "feeling the market" is by far one of the dumbest things you can say in finance.
## Speaker_1: ##
When WSB is more financially savvy than the President lol .... fuck
## Speaker_2: ##
I'm totally in favor of privatizing social security, but with the caveat that the only thing you can invest that money in is AMD calls.
## Speaker_3: ##
Can you imagine a retirement fund administrated by the folks of WSB? Would be more destructive than literally setting fire to the money

I saw this post. The suggestion from that thread was to buy CD with 2% annual interest
## Speaker_1: ##
index funds were too risky
everyone who suggested them got downvoted
## Speaker_2: ##
Index funds risky?
Christ do these people freak out over loosing pocket change in the drier as much as they do with stocks?
## Speaker_3: ##
I mean to be fair he said he needs the money in less than 2 years. If he actually needs *all* of the money then a CD is really the right option. Especially at the markets current valuation. It is not at all unrealistic that that 25k could easily be 20k in 2 years if we go through a significant crash/bear market. If you actually need all of X money in 2 years putting it in the market is stupid period.

So you make like $50k a year working for retards?
All in meme stocks. Definitely don't use it to advance your skills so you can earn more than a public school teacher working for a company with a real payroll system.
## Speaker_1: ##
He said twice this month, which means he might make $2k a month.
## Speaker_2: ##
I only take home 2.6k a month, but apparently I make 60k a year.
## Speaker_1: ##
Jesus, get your shit together.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Yea guys come on
I make 20k a year
Currently $300 in debt
Praying my box of top ramen will make it through to next week

## Speaker_1: ##
lol the ultimate WSB comment
1. Top comment to show idiots all coming along
2. Suggests another 6% upside on a day when stock runs up 9% and 45% in a month
3. using the phrase "looks like" based on literally nothing whatsoever, like stock prices are crops you can look at and say "looks like a lot of corn this harvest"
4. As a result of 1-3 decides he'll hold until he becomes a bagholder rather than taking gains and moving on
## Walls1337bot: ##
But you're literally the most retarded one on this board....

Were you all in calls or a mix of stock/options?

This account was all options. Mostly ITM Jan20, while cycling 60day ITM calls. Still holding over 4200 shares.

I just realized how poor I am.
## Speaker_1: ##
Not my money :( First 3 months investing for my parents.
Option account: Up 372%.
Stocks: Up 90%.
All AMD. LPT: Put all your eggs into the right basket

Why are you gambling away your parents savings?

Did you not see the YOLO flair?
Also I'm gambling it up, not away.

Where can I learn to do 5% - 25% of that? I'm really fucking tired of sales.
## Speaker_2: ##
honestly dude you need to have a higher IQ than most people to beat the market consistently and on your own (i.e. not just copy pasting what a successful person is doing, because odds are you don't have one ready to babysit you).
do you have that intellect? that's a big part of beating the market and not simply relying on luck - luck won't last. are you honestly well above average? it doesnt help if you lie to yourself and pretend that you are - youll only end up crashing. did you outsmart everyone in school? did you skip any grades? do you feel like most people around you just dont get it, and are slow compared to you?
if you're just an average guy, and there's no shame in that, i wouldn't bank on becoming a successful market-beating (with consistency) trader.
