Glad you can make assumptions but I was told I can’t. 
 

Here you go buddy. Own read receipts. I also listen to Tales from the Crypt, Pomp Podcast. Preston Prysh, Real Vision, Macro Musings among others (fantasy pros, chucks Sox podcast, yang speaks, planet money, Rogan, the portal, etc. . it’s possible to work your ass off, listen to 1-2 hours of podcasts on the train, In the shower, while cooking, walking the dogs, etc. & still put in time at the office. You want listen receipts from those too? My job is in credit. Literally corporate credit. So yes, I work all day and then dive deeper because I’m trying to make it to the top and run a the division for the country & retire by 55 & travel and give back and donate time and money to those who are dealt a bad hand. And yes during March I put in a month of 60 hour weeks   Because the credit markets were in disarray. I don’t need to lie like you. Very not trumpian posts... quite the opposite. The truth. Would you like all my podcast read receipts?  Sorry not all of us have to lie about some fake bitcoin mining rig. Maybe you’re the one w the fragile ego.

OMG no, podcasts?  Oh no, it is over.  I mean I said I was quitting six other times, but THIS TIME I REALLY MEAN IT!

You’ve insulted my character over and over & I’ve proven and substantiated your claims. You found the the thing I hate the most - being called a liar and pushing my family buttons. So good for you. But at a certain point I need to realize there’s no reason to get into the mud.  You’re a troll. 
This was a response to where you said I don’t research every single day. So I literally screen grabbed back to March.  And you’re wrong. I showed you that I do. It’s less about me listening to podcasts and more about defending my character. I don’t need to lie - when you’re comfortable in your own skin you don’t need to build some online persona. But I sure as hell will defend it cause I’m not a liar. And I’m sure as hell not Trump. 
 

No matter what I post you’ll have a response & I don’t need to find myself posting 158,000 times to a message board to try and gain the acceptance of strangers. Like I said I’m building something for my family and I & once I build it up I aspire to give back to the community and friends. My aspirations. And people like you drive me. You can call me cheesy or make fun of me , but I really don’t care. I will get to the top & then I will give it all away to people who have the same drive and need that next step/push. I don’t lie. I don’t need to lie. 
 

honeslty you can go ahead as an admin and delete or block me or whatever you need to do to eliminate me from the board. Whatever helps you feel important.

Wow,  I earned a Master's in Literature exactly like this. What did Mack Thomas write and when with a careful analysis. I felt like a stalker. Could someone offer a TLDR:?

@southsider2k5 don't you wish your kids paid this much attention to what you say? 

 

Unfortunately they also only hear what they want to hear.

With Biden just a few weeks from being sworn in & a $3T bill for infrastructure on the table are there any stocks out there people are eyeing? I think between unemployment, getting American's back to work and the focus on infrastructure there will be incredible money pouring into the space. 

I personally loaded up on USCR - US Concrete a few months back & think it'll continue its nice runway. Other infrastructure plays? Roads, precast concrete companies, technology companies tied to self driving trucks/roads, etc.?

dear god why would you read about wsb and then advertise your put

Markets can only handle irrationality for so long, eventually the big dollars flood them out.  There seems to be no good reason to believe this a real thing.  I did do some investigations, but even the puts are insanely expensive.  There is SO much vol built into the prices, there isn't much upside to be had without a HUGE collapse.  The April at the money's are $80 on a $150 stock.  That is NUTS.  I don't I have ever seen that before.

It's insane. 

I feel bad for all the people who are going to get cut catching the falling knives.  The principles behind what the reddit people did were sound (in terms of their theory to drive the market up and catch the PE firm shorting it) - but I'm also guessing those reddit ringleaders are going to be regretting this when they face fines and worse for manipulating the market.

I really wish I could see the 100 or 500 year historical view of my lifetime.  We're on the dawn of true mass communication.  100 years from now we'll be better able to analyze the good and bad and I suspect this will be historically significant.

January’s crop of stocks with big pops also include NIO (NIO), AMC Entertainment (AMC), and Robinhood favorite Plug Power (PLUG). One of the things these retail investors seem to love is anything with the potential for big gains — often high-volatility stocks or cryptocurrency. (The current speculative environment is best summed up by my colleague’s tweet Tuesday at 4 p.m.: “CASINO CLOSED.”)

Also on Jan. 26, the investor behind the GameStop trade on r/wallstreetbets posted a screenshot of his portfolio that went viral — it showed he had turned his position from around $50,000 to more than $22 million. These sorts of successes and articles (like this one, even) will likely convince others to try their hand at speculative short-term mega gains.

Interesting they’re helping out AMC, as its owned by Chinese conglomerate Dalian Wanda and has been speculated near bankruptcy for months due to Covid and over leveraging in the acquisition from a general standpoint (this is true of Chinese-owned US assets in general, recently, if you look at Anbang, Fosun Group, HNA, etc.).
