  1. Whatever you do, don't come up here with our freshwater beaches, sand dunes, temperate weather,and lots of state and national parks.
  2. I'm up on my shares that reduced my average cost, now I'm close to only needing it to double so I can break even
  3. whoa, whoa, whoa - we need more posts like this, hell more posters like this. she could show us her boobs and we would all vote for her for City Council
  4. Maybe they will send us a toaster for having that new account> And now that FRB has sunk, we should now focus our attention to figure out which bank is next - if you believe in the Wally jinx then Western Alliance should be on your radar, company I previously worked at banks with WAL. I finally get into a couple of tech related firms, and the banking market goes in the shitter. Good thing we aren't trying to close out a funding round (oh wait, we have 2 separate fundings that we are hoping (needing) to close by the end of the month. Here is a good likeness of my persona
  5. Presto chango - my employer is now a customer of JPMChase
  6. If you want to know why I am hyping this - well here is a map I found that shows the total solar eclipses of the 21st century. All I would have to do is hang on to 2099 and there will be one even closer to my current home. source: nationaleclipse.com
  7. I do them in an account that I am responsible for for my Mom, she is over 90 and I have 4 years worth of living expense tied up in 6-24 month CD's, all bought through Fidelity, most of them brokered to get the maturity date that I wanted. caveat: buy beware of any and all advice from someone on a message board, especially those posting under the name Wally/
  8. Your post inspired me to buy more, in order to average down (the only way to properly #stonk), dropped my average cost by 1/2, and now I only need IBRX to go up about 2.7x instead of over 5x. Feels like I am ready to make some money. #stonklife - eating saltines tonite with ketchup packets from when I could afford chicken tenders
  9. Welcome to the party, pal! Wait until it get to the point that you only wake up because you have to pee (again)
  10. mid-1970's Ping Anser played it in HS through sometime in the 90's. Will post a photo later of the played portion of my putter collection.
  11. Not that they are where I want to exit any of them - but for the first time I can remember all of my individual stocks (all stonks, except BRK.B) are up so far today. I know this is a super jinxing jinxer thing to post, but I want to remember that 1 day where it was true
  12. hell I loved them when they were decent, and they did this
  13. How about this one - I was trying to figure out how to show the impact of the top 10 have on the S&P 500, so why not show the difference between SPY (S&P 500 market weighted fund, just like the index) and RSP (S&P 500 equal weighted fund)...chatgpt says (footnote - this chatbot only has historical data through part of 2022) Not nearly the difference that I expected with 2020 being the only year with a significant difference Here is the annual percentage change in value for each ETF from 2010 to 2022: Year SPY RSP 2010 15.06% 21.60% 2011 2.11% -2.22% 2012 16.00% 15.92% 2013 32.31% 36.30% 2014 13.52% 13.16% 2015 1.38% -3.18% 2016 11.95% 15.12% 2017 21.83% 18.96% 2018 -4.56% -5.77% 2019 31.22% 28.63% 2020 18.39% 9.51% 2021 26.52% 26.13% 2022* 1.66% 3.44% *Data as of April 24th, 2022
  14. I am going to waste some time soon and compare the market % of the top 5-10 S&P components over a 10-20 year timeframe to see how skewed (or maybe screwed )this has become. Year % of S&P 500 represented by 10 largest companies 1970 16.6% 1971 16.4% 1972 16.6% 1973 19.2% 1974 19.6% 1975 19.8% 1976 20.6% 1977 20.9% 1978 21.6% 1979 22.8% 1980 21.6% 1981 22.3% 1982 20.4% 1983 19.8% 1984 19.3% 1985 18.9% 1986 17.5% 1987 20.5% 1988 20.5% 1989 21.5% 1990 22.2% 1991 21.8% 1992 20.2% 1993 20.3% 1994 21.1% 1995 23.2% 1996 24.6% 1997 25.8% 1998 26.4% 1999 29.4% 2000 33.8% 2001 28.5% 2002 23.5% 2003 22.3% 2004 21.4% 2005 20.8% 2006 19.4% 2007 19.4% 2008 18.2% 2009 20.8% 2010 19.1% 2011 18.1% 2012 17.9% 2013 18.8% 2014 18.9% 2015 18.2% 2016 17.1% 2017 18.9% 2018 21.8% 2019 22.7% 2020 27.5% 2021 28.7%
  15. Well it looks like Uncle Warren got caught with his hand in the cookie jar, so to speak. 2nd largest holder of Activision, which he had stated was a acquisition arbitrage play. Well the acquisition was just given a thumbs down by the EU, which will be appealed; but Warren was thinking he could get easy money and the market has said "not so fast my friend" But I'm still a believer in BRK.B, it is my 2nd largest holding, maybe this is a buy the dip moment; although I really thought that would be when Charlie or Warren made an appearance in the death pool thread.
  16. yeah well just add them to the list of actors, sports persona (announcers, coaches, atheletes), influencers (the Kardashians are at the top of the list), message board monitors, etc.
  17. I am thinking of starting a group of ETF's based on that fund, they will be as follows: - WF 4X alternating day bear/bull VTI fund (switches from 4X bear to 4X bull every other day) - WF 4X alternating week bear/bull VTI fund (switches from 4X bear to 4X bull every other week) - WF throw your money down the toilet fund (lights money on fire and throws it down the crapper) I think if I can just time it all correctly, and what could go wrong with that, that I make enough on the first 2 funds to happily burn some with no 3
  18. well shit - I like the sports related info at 538 - but yeah his political stuff went downhill (sorry to see a kid from East Lansing out on the street)
  19. hell - I am so mixed up that I can't remember if I was trying to reverse my own picks to get full benefit of the Reverse Wally strategy, or if I had already done that and I was re-reversing my picks. This shit is so confusing
  20. looking to purchase some puts (SPY), because I think it looks like it is going to be a bumpy ride. I will dip my toes in now, and add to it if the market bounces up some before the end of the month I am not expecting the Fed to do anything rational, or the debt ceiling to be resolved, or Russia to stop fucking over Ukraine, or shit to start to get better anytime soon Or - I could do something rational and put more money into BRK.B and ride the train driven by Uncle Warren and his crazy sidekick Chuck
  21. Tucker Carlson and Don Lemon fired on the same day, you know what I call that? A good start to the week; hoping to see Hannity, Doocy, anyone who says fair and balanced, Acosta, Shelter, throw in Blitzer (because I don't really like him)....that would make Tuesday a good day as well.
  22. This meme is just bad or wrong; not referencing Bob Stoops or having a photo that cocksucker should be required.
  23. so now I don't just need to get body armor (to protect me from random shooting), but I need to uparmor my vehicles T&P the the friends & family of the rock thrower victims; and I await a stringent debate about having back ground checks and a waiting period to pick up rocks. (btw - is TxTow still in prison?)
