Ya know.. I was looking at my portfolio and again, questioned why I was still in AMD.
I hate you AMD. Will exit and never look back...... someday
## Speaker_1: ##
Yeah I wanna pull out of it... but my position is too good and it never hits the $15 selling point I would pull out at. I got in at 10.09 so I'm sitting at 25% gains where it's at right now. Gonna pull out next earnings run.
Also was freaking out about pulling out of my 38.64 MU shares wayy to fucking early but thanked god I only had 10 shares in it (thought I had 20 or 30 shares) so the tendies would've been tiny for me. If it doesn't dip below $50 again and just runs to $70+ I might just invest in $ROPE
## Speaker_2: ##

## Walls1337bot: ##
Are you too retarded to realize that writing and buying your own option means you end up at exactly the same position you started in?
## Speaker_1: ##
Is writing the same thing as buying?
## Walls1337bot: ##
I'll write it out for your simple brain.
You write an option and ask for $5 in premium.
You buy your own option and spend $5 to purchase it.
That nets out to zero.
If it expires ITM, you make x dollars. You wrote the option so you owe yourself x dollars. That nets out to zero.
Make sense?
You'd actually be worse off because you have to pay fees.

Bought 3x $300 NFLX calls before earnings for ~$26 and sold for $30... sold too soon :( just looked guess I bought 1 contract at $16 something before earnings and 2 more on the morning dip after earnings... but sold too soon.
Mixed in some JPM calls after the earnings dip and some AMD puts after it climbed to the $10.60 range... sold those too soon too.

When is the last time a president had this strong of an economy at a mid term election? I mean if he just would shut up and let the market go, the reps would be sitting pretty.
Instead, he could reasonably put the country into a recession before his reelection if the trade war gets out if hand. +5 pct real GDP QoQ to negative would be quite a stupid accomplishment. But I guess that's the risk you take with debt funded growth.
## Speaker_1: ##

With all the "Bern" users, not a fucking chance.

Those kids are delusional thinking Bernie would "change the world". They have no idea that the President is just a puppet to the people behind the scenes. None of his ideas would ever pass.
## Speaker_0: ##
They have no intention to ever work their asses off. They expect everything handed to them so we should all be "equal" and the people who make millions of dollars a year because they started a company that employs 10/100/1000's of people should get fucked and contribute even more % wise.
I could go on forever- fuck all that.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Basic income is good fiscal policy.
I'm serious. Demand side economics yo. The robot revolution is coming.
Not that Bernie has a clue about any of that, it just so happens that some of his ideas make sense. But every time he talks finance I cringe.
## Speaker_2: ##
At this rate, Japan may end up experimenting with basic income first.
Unfortunate, given that it would subsidize NEETs. Thereby removing perhaps the only pressure they have to get out of the house.
## Walls1337bot: ##
> At this rate, Japan may end up experimenting with basic income first.
Unfortunately it's unlikely, conservatives have been in power for 60 years.
You have to see beyond the NEET problem: when employers are confronted with employees who have the option not to work, they have to make themselves a lot more attractive... which will probably resolve a lot of the factors that created the big NEET population in the first place. Ain't nobody want to sign their life away to a Japanese megacorp in exchange for shit pay.
Alternatively they replace the jobs with robots. But I doubt very much that a shortage of jobs is really the problem in Japan - it's a shortage of labor.

Banks playing a huge game of chicken right now. First one to go bankrupt loses.
## Speaker_1: ##
What do you think about the fed bailing the banks out again, only permanently with QE? At a certain point in the interest rate cycle and with such high levels of debt globally, the central banks are left with two options. Raise interest rates, to encourage saving. Or Inflate their way out of debt through cranking the presses...
## Speaker_0: ##
I honestly studied banking and finance and I'm pretty sure nobody has a proper idea about why current consumer behavior is as it is.
QE isn't working (or it is and we'd be hilariously below 2008 crisis levels of economic activity).
Economy isn't picking up.
People are losing purchasing power but talking heads are shouting deflation worries?
It's a monetary shit show tbfh.
Where is all the money flowing into? Realistically? Who can actually offer ROI for the amounts of money we've been tossing into the system? You need projects worth investing in, governments clearly aren't it.
## Speaker_1: ##
I’ve been honestly thinking about that very question for a while now. Some inflation obviously went to equities.
But where did everything else go?
I’ve been thinking that the as the global economy has become interconnected, US dollar has been circulated to other parts of the world because it does not operate like a normal currency. It is also the worlds reserve currency. Surely exporting labour to China (which trump has been trying to undo) is the answer to that question? Look at the trade deficit all of the dollars are flowing to other places...
## Speaker_0: ##
But that's never been different, historically? the US has always been a huge spender while China and Europe have had saving gluts.
Yet they are both also doing a QE policy and they aren't better off...
## Speaker_1: ##
That’s a good point... US was a creditor nation to begin with but the debt has caught up over time. The global QE damn... I’ll have to think about this now
## Speaker_2: ##
We're overdue for a war.
Russia's been eyeing the baltic states for at least 3 years now, China might as well annex Tibet formally, they know they could crush Japan and Korea right now, and execute basically everyone in North Korea in a little under 3 months.
I mean, they're already doing this to 2.2 million+ of their own citizens:
https://www.businessinsider.com/china-harvesting-organs-of-uighur-muslims-china-tribunal-tells-un-2019-9
The world will *never* run out of ways to spend money or find ways to send poor people to their deaths. 80+% of the world is cattle, they'll never even see it coming.
As for global markets, I see it more as a combination of geopolitics+rich vs poor kinda shit.
So Switzerland is hoarding something like 3+ trillion in cash reserves, it's the tax shelter for most of the continent. America's IRS has 12,000 agents for the entire agency, the SEC hasn't done shit since Shkreli (which was an Obama era investigation, I'm guessing), the FTC has always been incompetent, India's corrupt as shit, South America's always been fucked because of US drug laws/imperialism, Africa's always been fucked because of colonialism/resource curses, etc.
IMO, the banks are basically just the clubs that the rich people belong to. Hence why the US always spends money and the Chinese and Europeans don't like spending it - that's a cultural thing that spreads from rich to poor.
## Walls1337bot: ##
I enjoyed the read, however due to Japan having an extremely competent deep water navy and the lack thereof for China and the US as an ally, China has 0 chance of ever destroying Japan. Japan also has "helicopter carriers" that can can new converted to full blown carriers in the event of a real war with the snap of a finger. China's biggest liability is its population as well as its history of just being invaded and never actually doing the invading in the modern era.
There is a pretty great book that addresses the growing isolationism that the US is starting to field and the resulting outcomes of respective AOR's.
Edit* book name it's the accidental super power, can't believe I forgot to put that
I can't really tell you specifics because that word violate operational security, but the US is extremely prepared for something to ignite in PACOM.

Elon is bluffing watch him ask for $10 billion in financing at end of the year
## Speaker_1: ##
He's definitely going to ask for financing, he has to, that doesn't mean he's bluffing.
The share price is going to go up and fuck shorts, that's the whole point of all of this, he needs to run the price up before he asks for financing.
## Speaker_0: ##
of course he is doing what he has to do but as soon as he does it will drop and a lot of people will be mad.
## Speaker_2: ##
By the time he asks for financing model 3 will be pumping out legit numbers, it won’t even matter.
## Speaker_0: ##
well thats the question of the century
## Walls1337bot: ##
I don't really think it is. Elon virtually always comes through... just years late and hundreds of millions or billions over budget. But in the end, it works out and makes money.
Tesla, if they just stop and sit on the model 3 for a while, will be profitable. Put the rest of their plans off an extra quarter or four to solidify profitability once they have it- no accounting gimmicks, no unsustainable overtime, no pulling people from profitable production lines. Just sustainable model 3 $$.
They just have to literally survive as a company long enough to have that happen. If I were private equity, I'd be excited to invest the last billion or two Tesla might need before they turn profitable.
And it seems like Musk is serious about being profitable now. He won't say "eh close enough, now onto something even cooler" before they actually make money.
edit: oh yeah but you were saying the question is if he'd be hitting good numbers by the time he asks for more financing. Yeah that's a big question...
## Speaker_0: ##
> He won't say "eh close enough, now onto something even cooler" before they actually make money.
i dunno thats what I am afraid of
## Walls1337bot: ##
It's possible I suppose, but I think investors and everyone has made it like stone-cold clear that Tesla *has* to be profitable.
But yeah, maybe he hits 5k/week and thinks "hey look at that number, that's the number I said I'd hit a year ago, that's all investors care about right? neato time to go launch a semi into space" please Elon no I love you but get your head like a few inches further out of your ass

Again, you're a fucking idiot, or a successful troll..... shit you're a troll, dammit! I fell for it
## Speaker_2: ##
He raised prices so that the company producing the medication would be profitable. So money could be spent on research, QA/QC, new equipment and salaries for hiring good talent. A lot of the drugs were going to be shelved indefinitely by large pharmaceutical companies because they aren't profitable which was a death sentence to the people who needed them. Yes he drove prices up astronomically but the people who use these drugs have insurance and it's these insurance companies who pay the brunt of the cost
## Speaker_3: ##
Lol do you think insurance companies don't raise fucking premiums when costs go up?
Jesus Christ the lengths people will go to to praise Pepe shit, shit.

It's illegal for them to do that on an individual level. Also, this drug was set to be discontinued by the original manufacturer, so buying it saved lives. Also, he has given the drug out for free to all individuals who take the medicine and have lost their insurance or never had any.

If I just made $100k in one week, I would instantly quit my job, set aside however much necessary in taxes (80k left?), and begin looking for immediate vacation spots. After moving all my stuff into a storage unit, I would probably spend a few weeks on some cheap ass island in the Caribbean just relaxing (est -$5k if I decide to get spendy). Depending on how things went on vacation, I would most likely head out west next. Find a cheap place to stay somewhere (-2k travel/food until now, est -2k/month rent). Use 50k as downpayment for a small business loan, open a fancy restaurant somewhere in the California countryside, and just cook delicious shit for the next 5 years while rich Californians pay me ridiculous amounts of money to do so.

Man, this is rough, but Bezos just doesnt have a personality. He's this incredibly bland sociopath. He has no feelings, no cares, no humanity, and just thinks about profit and power and not much else.
Bezos is almost like that quiet serial killer the neighbors dont know and Musk is like the popular guy who throws a big party but makes sure to invite all his neighbors and drunkenly gropes one of his neighbor's daughters, but never the wife because he's respectful that way. Meanwhile Bezos is quietly burying two corpses in the forest preserve behind the party and completely lost in his little world of rape and murder.

Stopping rate hikes would fuck up the actual economy. The market will find a way to crash, it always does. In that case fed will have little tools to boost the economy.
## Speaker_1: ##
It's basically hike rates and bad economy or
don't hike rates and bad economy plus massive inflation.
I think I'm gonna with the choice that at least curbs inflation.
## Speaker_2: ##
Where is this rampant inflation you are so worried about?
## Walls1337bot: ##
It's not here (yet). But here's what'll happen if rates don't increase.
Too many people borrowing all the time because they don't have to pay shit's worth of interest causes society to borrow far more money than what actually exists. In the inevitable economic fuck-up, everyone's to want money when the banks come calling for the money they want and so will everyone who wants their money back for the way too many stocks they purchased from businesses which are now raising their prices to pay for because that wealth that got created from borrowing doesn't actually exist....
​
...and everything goes to shit. AKA massive inflation.
## Speaker_3: ##
Wait wait. Tell me the numbers that indicate this to you. Because the words from the fed chairman regarding rate hikes is what spooked people in the first place. Committing to rate hikes for instance. You mean to tell me that you are going to increase the interest rate and don’t actually know if we need it. That is why markets are down. We have all of these signs that shit is slowing down already. But want to commit to rate hikes. Where the fuck is this massive inflation? Lad you ain’t seen shit yet we at two percent homie
## Walls1337bot: ##
> Because the words from the fed chairman regarding rate hikes is what spooked people in the first place.
Better to only be spooked instead of wanting their non-existent money back when things go to shit.
> You mean to tell me that you are going to increase the interest rate and don’t actually know if we need it.
Except it *is* needed, because if you don't people are going to keep creating debt even if there's no real wealth to counterbalance it. Then when the investors *really* want their money back....
> That is why markets are down. We have all of these signs that shit is slowing down already. But want to commit to rate hikes.
And that, believe or not, is a *good thing.* The best situation for the nation as a whole is for the economy to hit full employment and normal growth...and stays there. If it can't stay absolutely stable (and it won't), the second best option is steady, controllable inclines and declines. Investors can predict when the economy is climbing or falling and invest accordingly. Businesses can open and close predictably. You're not going to go from rich to broke in a day.
When you have few controls, you get 1920s/1930s - where life seems really, really good, then becomes very, *very* shit very quickly and unpredictably when something goes wrong.
> Where the fuck is this massive inflation?
I just said *it's not here right now*. But it will be if there's no controls over the economy and the entire country grinds to a halt.

That's why it's called a yolo my man. You could have come out a lot richer but you fucked up and lost a lot of money.
Money comes and goes but I'll tell you this. To get back to your $660k, you'll need to make 100% return.
**DO NOT TRY TO GO MAKE A 100% RETURN ON ANOTHER YOLO** or you'll be fucking up again. Relax, put it all in SPY and sell covered calls on it until you get your shit back together.
## Speaker_1: ##
Is selling covered calls less risky than just straight up buying calls?
## Speaker_0: ##
Yes.
## Speaker_1: ##
How much less risky?
## Speaker_0: ##
When you sell a covered call your risk is that the stock goes up more than premium and your shares get called away. So if it stock goes up 1% over the itm-ness of your call you sold, you lost out on that 1% extra gain. If the stock goes down, your stocks won't be called away and you'll collect the free premium of the call you sold, and you'll still have your shares.
When you buy a call, you can lose 100% when it doesn't grow worth more than you paid
## Walls1337bot: ##
Selling covered calls is just like a stop limit order you get paid to place.

5-10 more years and every car company will have a decent electric car offering. Unless Tesla keeps innovating will be hard for them to keep this sort of price up for a long period of time
## Speaker_1: ##
That's exactly what people said about apple with the iPhone. "Every company will have a smartphone and apple can't keep it's profit margins high.". Welp...it's over a decade later and apple still makes ~40% profit on every iPhone.
The market doesn't care about actual products anymore. That was true maybe ten years ago but not anymore. Markets care about strong brands and that's all.
## Speaker_2: ##
This is true, but it may not play out the same.
One huge difference of course is that were talking about $40,000 cars, not $600 phones. If BMW, Lexus, etc offer an electric car thats better than Teslas, I dont see brand helping them much.
Another is that Apple built a whole platform. I think Tesla is going this route, but I am not sure if it will be a strong offering.
## Speaker_3: ##
We're also taking about:
*solar cells

I don't know why people think this is going to justify the price. Tesla is headed toward lower ASP and gross margin.

It is entertainment money or at least it should be with that IV. I bought 1 ATM put for laughs because if you are trying to make money you will be disappointed.
## Speaker_2: ##
What is a good IV that influences your trades?

## Speaker_2: ##
So I have 114 shares of $GME with about a $200 loss, and yes, it's through Robinhood, so I can't write covered calls or anything like that.
I'm trading options through another broker, so do you think that buying puts would be a good way to cover losses in the case that the stock takes a large drop?
The problem with puts is that I don't think it's going to drop enough to make anything in the short term.

But definitely try one of each item before you judge Starbucks as a whole. Did I mention that there are also frozen and fruity drinks? Wow. So great. See you there buddy.
## Speaker_1: ##
No lie tho, vanilla sweet cream cold brew is the shit. That alone is worth buying sbux stock on
## Walls1337bot: ##
Have not heard this one. They are pumping out new drinks like mad. I like that they do temporary promotions and roll outs of these drinks and can then gauge which ones will be good to bring back.
Their customization through the app is also pretty impressive.
Customer service tends to be great. My girlfriend spilled a drink the moment she walked out the store and we walked back in and they had no problem making a new one free of charge, and also offered water for the road since it was a hot day.
Think the workers are underpaid, well.. nope, a tipping service is available through the app.
Finally, they are consistent as shit. Their wifi works well at all the stores I've been to. Similar layouts so you know you will have some long wooden community tables, probably a few spots outside, as well as some leather one person couches indoors. Not to mention they are at almost every highway exit, even if you are in the middle of nowhere. And if that's no enough, you can still find them when you travel around the world.
Still think it's overpriced? It is. But if you have some time to spare. Sit down and do some work or whatever you need to at Starbucks. Grab a pikes place roast, a Sumatra dark roast or a Blonde roast- 3 brewed coffee options at $1.95. Sit there sipping on your fresh coffee, then before you want to go, ask for a refill. Yea, that's free of charge with the Starbucks app on your phone. Now you got a cup of coffee that's better quality than McDonald's McCafe/a lot of other places and for a cheaper price.

Small scale martingale system is the only way of making money on a casino, and even then it's possible for you to lose with one bad streak (97.5% chance of doubling your money assuming it's a perfectly random roulette)
[Sheet showing probabiliy, etc.](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10KxxMKfZAKh_vc9zCUJf40uGAUDXkgbHtnTlkFAQzPU/edit?usp=sharing)

[Sheet showing probabiliy, etc.](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10KxxMKfZAKh_vc9zCUJf40uGAUDXkgbHtnTlkFAQzPU/edit?usp=sharing)
Basically, the odds that a Roulette will go 5 times on Black is 4.5%, 6 times is 2.4%, 7 times is 1.3%, 8 times is 0.7%, 9 is 0.4%, and 10 is 0.2%;
With that being said, if you see that a roulette has gone 4 times in a row to the same color, you can just play the odds and go the opposite color, with a 95.5% chance of winning, and here's where Martingale kicks in, if you do your 95.5% bet and you lose, you can just triple your bet and do the next one, with the odds being 97.6% for you, and if that fails you, you can just do it again, with the odds being only a measle 1.3% against you.
The trick is to only bet when the odds are HEAVILY tilted toward you, and not get emotional, just follow the chart and you will be fine. The catch 22 is: **There's a chance, though small, of you losing every single one of your plays until you're dry**, the odds of that happening if you bring $10,000 and start every streak with $10 are literally 0.00000000001% or something like that, a negligible amount.
I don't know how to explain this any more than I just did, whenever I get old enough to go to a Casino I'll definitely try this out and see it in action.

"The defense has argued that no one was victimized because Shkreli used his "genius" to make Retrophin a success and ensure investors doubled or even tripled their money."
I love Martin, but claiming he is a genius is a horrible argument to win in securities fraud. Even if your investors made their money back. Bernie Madoff thought the exact same thing.
## Speaker_1: ##
Bernie was just taking money from new investors to pay back old investors like a typical ponzi scheme. Martin may have lost their money but they still got their money back + profits from an actual company and not from other defrauded people.
## Speaker_0: ##
That's correct, however Martin had no guarantee that Retrophin would be a success. If it wasn't a success, I think it is fair to say that the investors would have lost their money.
## Walls1337bot: ##
And this was the whole reason he was convicted.
The conviction is for taking an illegal and irresponsible risk. He pulled it off, most wouldn't. Let him try a hundred times, maybe he'd only pull it off 20 times.
I don't hate him or anything, but it's insane some people think he did nothing wrong, or broke no law, or that breaking the law doesn't matter if things work out. He deserves to and should go to jail ya know?
I hope things work out for him in the end (as if he'll be locked up for more than a couple years), but the legal stance can't be "you can ignore important laws, we'll only send you away if you cause damages"
## Speaker_2: ##
It's ridiculous because it's the exact same thing nobody went to jail for in 2008. Instead we got to give them a fat loan with our tax money.
## Walls1337bot: ##
> It's ridiculous because it's the exact same thing nobody went to jail for in 2008
Agreed, but agreed within the context that many people *should* have gone to jail in 2008.
>Instead we got to give them a fat loan with our tax money
We got fucked as a society because of what happened but imo it really was a case of "what choice do we have?"
Save the institution of banking and the market, along with the global economy, and then afterwards address the things that lead to it. We did the first thing, we couldn't get the second thing done.
We did get the money repaid in full ahead of time and with interest. It wasn't a complete failure, but, not to get too political, there's a lot more to be done that won't be done any time soon.

You know there's some law in Detroit where you have to get any purchased house like this up to code, which can cost up to $100k. I researched this route a while back when I was looking into retiring in Detroit at the age of 25. You'd be much better off buying a rickety house in the deep south where you don't have to worry about paying for heat in the winter or dealing with city governments.
## Speaker_1: ##
Who the hell would actually "want" to live in detroit, let alone retire there.
## Speaker_0: ##
If I really could buy a house for 1k without any strings attached, I'd be there in a heartbeat.
## Speaker_2: ##
You can in Detroit and Flint. I live in Flint and bought two houses two years ago for $1500. I now live in one and rent the other. They just needed the usual- a few busted things (windows, toilet, etc) and some fresh paint and they're now nice houses. The city assessed one last year at $29K and the other $36K.
## Speaker_3: ##
Wow. Where I live I don't think you could buy a patch of dirt to park a trailer on for 29k. The market must be totally different over there.
## Speaker_4: ##
Welcome to the free market.
Places where people want to live are expensive. Places where people don't, aren't.

In Ontario, you can't even get a patch of mud by Hudson Bay for that price, and that's nearly arctic.

## Walls1337bot: ##
If it's anything like Australia, the government jobs and universities are in the state capitals, so that's where the service economy goes. If you don't want to work in mining / forestry / agriculture then that's where all the jobs are.

Elon's companies get most of their revenue from investors. That's why he can hemmorage money, yet still be "in the green". He has lots of investors who are dumping money into his companies since they are really the only ones who provide products at that level of quality and consistency. Regardless of their quantity issue, they'll always have excess money in the bank.
The best here is that once they perfect all their issues and become truly profitable without investors, the price with soar more since it'll be an uncontested space for all 3 of his companies
## Speaker_1: ##
What's uncontested?
## Speaker_0: ##
Once SpaceX gets commercial space flight, it'll be the first, therfore uncontested company, in the market for a bit
Tesla cars are known for their power, mission statement, and brand-recognition. Once they become affordable, uncontested market essentially. They'll be the first affordable electric car that has all options
The Boring Company is unique since it has the only civilian, commercial flamethrower available.
## Speaker_1: ##
There are other private companies working towards commercial space flight, Virgin Galactic and Blue Origin are just a couple examples.
Other car manufacturers already manufacture more affordable all electric vehicles, GM with Chevy Volt/Bolt is an example.
There are other companies working on hyperloop technology (The Boring Companies direct objective).
So please tell me again what is uncontested?

There is no opioid crisis. Once you start banging smack, there is a 99+% probability that you are going to be nothing but a drain on society and the economy for the rest of your life. You don't see any fire fighters who were like "ya lol, 4 years ago I was mainlining heroin in an alley covered in my own piss". These people are all fucked, and you have to be pretty fucked up in the first place to start banging street drugs. Its basically darwinism.
Conclusion: The fentanyl cut heroin and oxy that is leading to thousands of deaths every year is not a crisis, it is a solution. Long term this is going to save hundreds of millions, perhaps billions, of dollars. These are the fuckups of society effectively culling themselves from existence. Good riddance.
Long SPY.
## Speaker_1: ##
Lol you say that, but I know a programmer who got into heroin three years ago, now he's back to being a successful programmer, after nearly dying and needing to be hospitalized. there was a recovery period of a year, but morale of the story, not every drug addict gets fucked, the successful ex addicts just keep it private. the failures beg you for change.
## Speaker_0: ##
Sorry to piss on your parade, but it is statistically likely that he is going to relapse. Most of them do. Best of luck to the guy, but most successful addition stories are few and far between. Maybe this is one, maybe it isn't. And this isn't my opinion, its well documented stats.
## Speaker_2: ##
Damn dude you ever drink too much? Did you want your friends to just leave you there to die because it was a dumb thing to do and therefore darwinism? there are a lot of high functioning addicts out there, and many more now in abstinence. Try not to make such a blanket statement, that only worsens the problem. Many are trying hard every day to get better.
Not every addict is a 'junkie', many can hide the habit from everyone including family and friends and maintain a normal work life. Only difference being you go home and make dinner or whatever and they go home to sniff.
## Speaker_0: ##
That isn't an accurate comparison. Most people drink and it doesn't ruin their life. Most people who use heroin have ruined lives. You can safely assume getting drunk every once and a while isn't going to end up with you sucking cock in an alley for vodka money and then ODing on vodka. That's what happens with heroin. They pawn everything of value they have, they start leading a life of crime to pay for their fix. They get arrested they go to jail, they get out and are basically homeless and useless junkies. That doesn't happen with alcohol. And yeah some people are alcoholics, but they generally are much more functional then heroin addicts.
And no, there are not many recreational users of heroin who live a good life. The reality is you build up a tolerance, get physically addicted, need more to maintain the high, and end up financially ruined trying to support your habit. Its possible to use heroin in moderation, but it isn't the norm. Whereas with alcohol occasional use is the norm, and those who abuse it are generally not even comparable to your typical heroin junky.
I can see how some people get into when they have chronic pain or an injury and get prescription drugs which eventually leads to heroin. I do feel bad for those people, that does suck. But plenty of them just get into it recreationally. I don't think many smart people think 'hey, you know what would be fun tonight, lets try some heroin!'. I know some junkies from high school, they all got into it because they were retarded, not injured. I don't feel too bad for them. That is darwinism.
## Walls1337bot: ##
As an addict/alcoholic in recovery, I beg to differ with your opinion. I have heard stories, first-hand from alcoholics who have prostituted themselves and have done everything a heroin junkie would do to get heroin to get booze. Once a substance has that much of a grip on a person, they will do anything to get it. Alcohol addition can be just as damaging as heroin addition.

## Speaker_1: ##
considering puts on SNAP as well. Seems to be a lot of irrational enthusiasm for a company that hasn't generated a profit and is up over 30% from the previous quarter even though nothing material has changed since then. Been doing some DD and it's hard to see a long term path to profitability and in the short term with the competition from facebook, instagram, and whatsapp is still dominating them.
Also as a laugh there "spectacles" failed terribly lol
## Speaker_2: ##
Hmm I’m considering too.
Why haven’t you pulled the trigger?
## Speaker_1: ##
I wanted to look over the company's financials/there team/consensus/ etc.
A couple things I've found so far.
- Spectacles have failed, they have a bunch of unsold inventory and retail space that will be bleeding them.
- Ad revenue per user and Daily active users have stagnated. There has been numerous independent sources cutting there expected revenue for the year.
- Intense Competition from Facebook and Instagram has been a drag on there growth and continues to be an issue
- Many of the Executive's in the company have been selling stocks and in particular there Vice president of Engineering Timothy Sehn has been selling a bunch this past quarter.
- One thing that bothered me was the bullish coverage by different analysts but one in particular from Credit Suisse who has a price target of $30. Upon some digging I found that Snap Inc's Chief Financial Officer Imran Khan was a former Managing Director at Credit Suisse prior to his appointment at Snap. If you do some reading you find out that he's quite a relationship man and a lot of the coverage at the banks he has connections with. Not only that but these Banks and Institutions have been long Snap since the IPO when the company was trading at a much higher price per share and I can't see them admitting they made a mistake until they start to unload some of there own shares so Caveat Emptor.
- Evan Spiegel there CEO. I dont even know where to begin but the unfounded confidence wall street and investors seem to have in this man is insane. He still has majority ownership within the company so investors really have no say in what direction Snap should head and I see that as a really dangerous sign that things could spiral out of control if they cant get costs under control and start raising there revenue.
- I know stocktwats is sacrilege around here but you only need to pop your head in to the SNAP section and see who the fools in the market are. You have people talking about dancing hotdogs and bitmoji? I don't think they understand that none of that matters if they can't monetize there existing client base.
- Lastly, I'm waiting for Monday and maybe Tuesday to see how the share price fluctuates prior to earnings. Friday had a pretty large run up and its possible it could continue to Tuesday. But if you look at my previous post the drop from last earnings on Aug 11th has more then recovered and there hasn't been any material news since then that in my mind would justify a run up of more then +30%.
I think they're going to disappoint again and guide lower then expected. How you can justify a 18 Bil Market Cap for this flaming piece of shit company is beyond me but thats just one mans opinion. I'd like to hear the case from bulls other then dancing hotdogs and shit lol

I... I don't believe you. Who would have time to argue with that many people over the phone?
Edit: it's really Martins number. Dudes fucking crazy, if I was semi-famous or at least in the nations spotlight I would never give out my personal cell number.
Looks like he sets up live streams or 'periods' where he takes calls related to specific subjects; however, he will most likely respond whenever if you call/text him. You could do it now, except it's 1:30am in NY and I'm sure you'd be bothering him. No matter how you feel about his character that's just kind of a dick move.
Personally, I don't love him or hate him. He made a smart business decision and isn't exactly hurting anyone.

This might sound like a dick move except it's A) still only a fraction of what other 'similar drugs' cost and B) mostly gets picked up by the insurance carrier and C) only a few thousand people even need/use this drug. Some people might be affected, but at the same time the cost of even the 13 dollar version is expensive and isn't affordable without insurance. So yes, you would need insurance to buy this drug, but that's always been the case. The only thing he did was make the co-pay go up a little bit.
It'd be like if I bought out CostCo and changed their $1.99 hotdogs and drink combo to $5.00 (which would actually be cheaper than what other places charge). Dickish? Not really, just capitalism.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Don't forget he gives it out for free to people without insurance.

So what is warren buffett betting on now and where do i invest?
## Speaker_1: ##
Serious question: why not just bet on the same things as him?
## Walls1337bot: ##
The fund he manages is called birkshire Hathaway. $BRK.a is going for hundreds of thousands per share. $BRK.b is around $180 per share. You can buy it on robinhood. Index funds of s&p are provided by several companies under $ivv or $voo. Both between $200-$300 per share.
## Speaker_1: ##
Would you recommend buying a share in it? (New to investing)
## Walls1337bot: ##
I never recommend anything when it comes to stock/money/investing. I will tell you what I do. I spill my money between BRK.b and ivv

Absolutely amazing, quick question, how long did this all take? From $0-2.5 mil? And congrats dude, you’ll be yachting soon.
## Speaker_1: ##
started with $200k what will be 3 years ago this fall
## Speaker_0: ##
Damn, that’s insane. Did you get the $200k from saving from a job, and do you still have a job?
## Speaker_1: ##
Yeah it was $100k in my 401(k) that I had only started about 1.5 years prior and $100k from my personal account that was saved from working. I still work and will continue to do so unless I make it to the $8-10M range of liquid assets, at which point my after tax income would be too small to be worthwhile compared to relatively safe investment returns.
## Speaker_0: ##
That’s wild, any thoughts on when you’ll hit 8-10? Or is that just a fat dream for now?
## Speaker_1: ##
If I could plan it out like that I'd start a hedge fund and make you all millionaires while I charge 30%.
That said, if $MU hits a PE of 13 by January (SP of ~$150-160), I should be at the $10M promised land after taxes.
edit: I must have a brain tumor because this math is quite bad. I would need approximately $105-110 share price to achieve $10M by January. $150 would be in my 401(k) alone. It's actually possible, but I doubt it.
## Speaker_0: ##
Jesus that hedge fund would be perfect, if you don’t mind and if you’re not busy sometime could we talk a bit more about your strategy? You’re doing just about exactly what I want to do (get fuck you money) and you’re doing it fast.
## Speaker_1: ##
Luck always plays a role. I got lucky in that I started reading about then researching MU when I did. I like to think that I played an active role in that I recognized the potential when the market wanted to just shit all over $MU. I also made the decision to go full retard and only play $MU as I felt I had a great grasp on the company and their industry and I wanted to maximize my perceived advantage. My PT was $22 when the shares were around $10, then high $20's, then $40, then $45, etc., as time went on, just more and more information came about that was positive for their prospects. With the ridiculous price suppression and dips, I really went FR, sold all my shares and went all calls. Still, almost that entire time, most analysts and talking heads were shitting all over $MU, and they still do with these laughable PT's in the $70s and below.
I look for growth and value, not unlike WB, but I made irresponsible (but educated) plays to try to maximize the advantage I thought I had. Hopefully it works out and I get to $10M in January and I can take it easy, but I'm afraid it'll be hard to invest conservatively after two years of balls to the wall $MU plays.
## Walls1337bot: ##

I got really lucky with my first few options. Made 100-200% gains in less then a week. Then I went crazy buying calls and puts anywhere from 1000-5000. Lost 50% of those gains.
Realized with options that three things are against you:
Time
Direction
IV
Stopped playing options and bought stock. I only buy 1-2 options now if I am 100% confident. 90% stock 10% options.
Might not make that much like the yoloers here but I’m ok
## Speaker_1: ##
Or you could sell options. Then time, direction, and IV would be working for you.
## Speaker_2: ##
Exactly what I'm doing now. Much less stressful. Granted you still need to know the market trend but if you know risk management then it shouldn't hurt you and you should be able to make profits quickly after
## Speaker_3: ##
"If you know risk management"
Hahahaha
## Speaker_4: ##
Wait? I thought there’s barely any risk to selling puts cause you will just end up with stocks if it doesn’t work out.
## Walls1337bot: ##
You sell a put at 45. Stock drops to 35. You get assigned. You're now much poorer than you just were.
"barely any risk" is ASSUMING that every stock will somehow make it back to its current price in a timely manner, which is often not the case.

Nice, now you can go long on steady companies and do boring shit like sell covered calls for steady income and never have to work anymore if you choose.
edit, nvm, you already have a job:
> I also have a relatively high-paying job, so that helped ($105k/yr, then jumped to $135k/yr, then recently negotiated job paying $330k/yr)
## Speaker_1: ##
550k is way less than "never have to work" money
## Speaker_2: ##
This. 550k is nice but not "fuck you" money. My goal is $2.5m.
## Speaker_3: ##
>2.5m
I can't believe that I think that is actually kind of low given your salary and the amount you already have in investments. By year's end, you're already pushing ~1m pre-tax
## Speaker_2: ##
True, but I have no desire to work for salary my entire life. $2.5m buys me $100k in interest a year forever at a safe withdraw rate of 4%, enough to life comfortably almost any where in the world
The incremental stress is not worth it. The next level to shoot for is in the $50m+ range w startups
## Speaker_4: ##
4% is not safe forever. 4% is quoted endlessly from the trinity study which was done with "success" defined as not going to 0 in 30 years, but most portfolios/ periods drew down a lot.
3% is much safer

He gambled $1M, so depends on if he managed to get out.

Many forget it was ITM options $29 $400k on that and the rest are equities. He made a lot more last quarter ER.
So is he losing all $1MM? No.
Is he losing overall? No.
He started with capital $100k ish. Just a fun fact and he also made close to $700k after last ER.
Apparently all the faggets combined here lost more than he did last week.
I hope he is trading conservatively now, use his earnings for real estates or real life business and not double down. Else all of that achievement will be just a part of the great hobo history.

A leading group of followers of Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh (later known as Osho) had hoped to incapacitate the voting population of the city so that their own candidates would win the 1984 Wasco County elections.

Tesla’s revenue generation per day then shits on Toyota’s.. Interesting.
## Speaker_1: ##
simple calculation. More cars but still lower revenue per car? That means a lower price of cars which is definitely true, especially in the asian, african and south american markets. Not really an issue, its economies of scale vs premium products. Tesla still has way more potential though as they gain scale.
## Speaker_2: ##
