Taken from twitter: “My wife grew up thinking that having water/ice dispensers IN THE FRIDGE DOOR was a life goal.
I grew up thinking if you had a basketball hoop with a clear/plexiglass backboard, you were rich.
What are some things you thought were indicators of wealth when you were a kid?”
Curious to see your responses....

This is a noob question. What do I do with this meme stock I purchased? I only invested a grand. Do I sell when it’s high and get out of it? Or hold on to it? I know nothing about trading.

Looking for a panty dropper used car for around 40k. What would you suggest? Considering a wide range of options from x5 to F type

Recently sold my car on carvana. I had initially bought it using a loan from DCU. Now that carvana has paid me the balance after paying of the loan, i still see on the dcu app that I owe money to dcu. People that can relate, can you take me through next steps?

Anyone have a carry payout model they can share? Trying to build a few scenarios

How do you guys set up your 401K accounts ? Since a lot of vanguard funds have bonds and I’ve heard bonds are haram to invest in? Would like opinions

How much do you guys buy? Do you put limit orders or each pay check put in a %?

Need an opinion on the Vanguard VIGAX/VIGIX. I’m index riding with that fund but am wondering if I should shift my risk and go with VT or another Vanguard fund. Thoughts?

My portfolio has been stagnant for a week now. Last few times this has happened, market has tanked. Anyone else feeling we’re at an event horizon soon?

Any of you using TikTok to display your properties? I see it's working for some realtors and I am tempted to try.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it more advantageous to have low housing prices and higher interest rate? If that's the case, you can always refinance when/if the interest rate lowers again. Is there something I'm not seeing?

What’s the beat way to transfer capital from the markets to crypto without paying hefty taxes? I have a fair amount invested in index funds that I’d like to move into BTC and ETH without getting slammed next April

Today I’m thankful for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Coinbase. (And this community too)!

I am financially secure (husband now has a high earning job) and looking at what options for "moon shots" at chances of real wealth generation with my years in Big 4 (10+). Month to month cash flow isn't a concern anymore so i can focus on opportunities for bigger pay days. Ideas from the hive mind?

That Carlos Matos Bitconnect video still makes me laugh.. hope everyone stayed away from anything that tried to combine crypto and lending.

I recently bought my 1st home in TX. I want to get into real estate and eventually own/rent out multiple homes. Are there any good recommendations/tips on books/articles/websites that others have used to get started?

I've read about HELOC and cash out refinance to get a 2nd home but articles are so scattered that it gets confusing which is better in terms of tax benefits and immediate costs, etc. Anything others have found helpful that summarized how to get started would be great!

Where do first year associates / business analysts typically live in NYC? What’s a realistic rent budget?

Long does it take to switch from L1B to L1A visa? (Promoted to Manager). Nothing done yet. Any experiences?

So no real layoffs?

My partner and I are in the process of buying a PHEV that qualifies for the full non-refundable federal tax credit. We will both owe taxes in excess of the current $7,500 cap (will see if that increases with the new budget bill). If we both own the car (i.e. both names on the title), how do we manage filing for the tax credit when filing separately? Do we just pick one of us to file? Is there guidance on splitting the credit across owners? Does it matter what order our names are on the title?

Thinking having a 24’ HD and a 28’ 4K monitor setup. Is 4K for excel not necessary? How about 28’ monitors?

About to start a new job at a start up where I got 20,000 options at ~2.50 strike price, company valuation of a ~$1B. My back of envelope math had future value at around $150-200K after 4 years assuming 4-5X growth. Anyone have any good start up option stories to fuel my optimism?

@Bain folks - What is the salary for Associate Consultant (Experienced Hire) after the recent hike. Is it same as AC (Graduate hire)?

I have 3 YOE as a Software Developer. I currently work as a React/Node developer making 87k per year (I know that is pretty low, my manager will admit it) He has made it clear that I am the most skilled developer on the team, and I am getting promoted to Senior Dev. I would like to know what I should be shooting to make? I really like my job and ideally don't want to move companies, but would like some realistic expectations for what I should be earning.

Does anyone know typical salaries for Functional Consultant and Senior Functional Consultant roles within CSG of Salesforce? Glassdoor does not have much info at all.

Got a mail from RL to schedule a discussion for career outlook conversation next week, so most of us would get to know the numbers and impact tier by next week.

AT&T: HBO-MAX is probably top 3 stream platforms along with netflix and disney plus. Despite this AT&T trades at a super low multiple. Is this the next glow-up a la Disney this past month? I think so. They've already got an extensive library and have consistently over 20 years delivered the best shows on TV, period. I understand that the core AT&T business may seem like a "liability" to the valuation but I still think that their valuation doesn't make sense. What am I missing?

Did anyone else pick up PANW last week after my post? I bought outright but I’m curious if anyone bought calls and what your current position is, we’ve had a nice run up so it seems like it might be tempting to sell before earnings if your calls are already up 100%.

Thoughts on airlines for the long run? American and United are bound to bounce back at some point. If I throw 10k in I assume these won’t go bankrupt

Anyone going in on VNET?

What funds do people have in their 401k plans? And how did y’all decide allocation? Can’t tell if I should be more aggressive given I’m in my 20s.

What actual stocks you all buying today? Got some cash from settled trades I want to deploy

Anyone in eBay? P/E ratio is ~7

Why are some people saying that they (regulators or the govt) need to stop GME trading? Isn’t this a free market?

JMIA is insane. Why is it only popping in the last couple weeks?

Thoughts on CSIQ? It is sitting near all time highs but has not jumped like crazy from pre-pandemic. It’s at a 25% premium. It has solid fundamentals. It may be a solid option after it hits the 50 day SMA.

I have dal 19 put 3/27. Loosing money there, should I wait out another day or two or cut my losses now?

Any good options?

HNY all! I have multiple rollover and traditional IRAs, as well as a solo 401k. But (since I started paying attention to this kind of thing) have always been over the income limit to start a Roth IRA. I’ve also not done much contributing in the last few years due to purchasing an apartment and saving for renovations. Cue pandemic joblessness... if married filing separately, would you say it’s a good idea to start a Roth while under the income limit, even in this climate? Any reason not to?

Is ethereum the new Bitcoin? Do you invest in it? Why/why not?

Here’s a point of reference on meme stocks for people who thinks it’s too late to get in or who think it’s close to peaking. Tesla: 948M outstanding shares; market cap: $837B. GameStop: 69.75M; market cap: $5.36B.

AMC the next GME?

Anyone else think we see a pop in marine retail I.e. ONEW. Thinking more people find ways to vacation at home and we see a spike in boat sales

Taking a gamble here. 25 OXY $16Cs for 4/9 and 25 OXY $17Cs for 4/9. $0.20 and $0.08 respectively. Very high risk but have gains on other OXY trade that I don’t mind risking on this.

Weekend thought as many of us watch our portfolios bleed away value as the market hit all time highs: stick with it. This is a very difficult time in the market so try to figure out what’s not working and fix it. Stick with your process while trying to improve it. That should you you in the best place to manage risk now and be positioned to capture new opportunities in the coming weeks and months. Discipline, execution, and patience are key sources of alpha. Best of luck.
