fellas still think anyone gives a s*** about spending bitcoins at a store lmao

enjoy your play station 5 bro it's ok to move on

hey you know you can still reverse course right and you can dedicate your life to ethereum now?

look into the sunk cost fallacy

At any moment in time, the best thing to do depends only on current alternatives. The only things that matter are the future consequences. Past mistakes are irrelevant. Any costs incurred prior to making the decision have already been incurred no matter what decision is made. They may be described as "water under the bridge," and making decisions on their basis may be described as "crying over spilt milk."

In other words, people should not let sunk costs influence their decisions; sunk costs are irrelevant to rational decisions. This is known as the bygones principle.

Tbh I have only recently started getting into "investing" before I was just doing it within my hobbies i.e. shoes / collectibles (pokemon cards) which still has a decent amount of money in it. However I really want to lay down a foundation for myself and the next 10 years investment wise and don't really know where to start. Why ethereum for example?

based

Y’all hear sumn or was it just the guy who said NIO was a horrible buy at $15😴😂🤣🤣

It’s okay BTC you go when you feel like it :)

imagine capping this hard :for chinese spyware

I always try to steer people to invest in only things you know. Especially at the beginning.

If you have a natural talent for finding the latest hypebeast sneaker or the MTG / Pokemon cards that are going to appreciate in value because there's a new hype cycle for a certain set or character, continue to do that until you max out your time / profits. People who try to shill you to trade options or invest in random companies don't know what they're talking about.

When you have excess life money that will depreciate if it sits in the bank is when you need to reassess. The moment you realize you would be making more money in other avenues is the time to broaden your horizons.

it is extremely difficult to become an expert in a new field, especially if you are unfamiliar with it. I only suggest Ethereum because it will open up new opportunities you cannot conceptualize yet without understanding the basics of cryptocurrencies or blockchain technologies or what drives decentralization. Ethereum is the shortcut that will cut through the noise if you want to dedicate yourself in that way.

If you want to learn about stocks the road is just as long, you'll want to pick up books by Ben Graham or learn from Warren Buffett's investor letters for example.

Don't be so quick to stop your little side hustle if it truly is profitable. When you transition into stocks you are essentially competing against the smartest people in the world who are paid professionally in teams (and paid well) to look for the smallest opportunities. It's pure luck at some level and there's nothing easy about it, no matter what amount of unrealized gains are currently observed in the markets.

this guy is seriously f***ing weird. how is he still going

Oh my god don’t tell me you when back and deleted your NIO posts
Aren’t you the guy who bought at $8 but still wasn’t excited about the company🤣🤣🤣
Just say you sold when it hit $11 bro

Oh my god he did delete his posts

$1.20 actually. and I got out once I realized what a total scam and derivative of a company it actually was. there's a reason wsb is so h**** for this stock, its time will come soon, remember SPCE?

when they file for bankruptcy you'll remember we warned you

This man brought up SPCE like it isn’t up 117% since it’s IPO in last October holy f*** you can’t make this s*** up w these guys

Campaign. We get it. You are proud that you made 1 good trade in your life. I'd love to see just how much you have invested in NIO. It has to be over $50,000 I hope. Anyone so obsessed with their correct call on 1 random stock has to be over-levered into their favorite stock of all time. Are you all in NIO?

The lack of self-awareness you display. I don't know why you think you're "showing off" to anyone but if anything it makes anyone with half a brain look at you like you are a weirdo.

You act like there are no other stocks in the market. None are performing well. Only NIO.

It's f***ing stupid and honestly it gives newbies the wrong impression on what is realistic, even in this market. Be humble lmao

I don't know why you keep quoting my posts. I'll stick with Andrew Left and Citron, who recently echoed much of what I have pointed out in this very thread. Nothing I said was even that crazy. You just took it personally.

We'll see who is "right" in the end? But don't be mad when gravity takes over like it does on every stock ever, sweet summer child.

^Didn’t read this man type stories like nothing bro
I know those fingers hurt!

Appreciate your informative post, I will definitely continue my side hustle and try to read up on crypto and stocks due to that i have some money in the bank I could definitely reassess in other assets.

man got lucky on a few calls in a bull market and thinks hes got this s*** dialed in

Oh it’s a bull market now
He also must’ve deleted the post where he said he was selling before the crash

When did you jump back in?
