  • I think some people genetically also lack the enzyme that converts the THC into whatever when it's ingested.

  • Oh, I thought they meant that they would be replaced with coins...

  • My SO, now wife were seperated by a few years in college and had known each other before hand. If the relationship is strong, the relationship will be fine.

    What would you be doing during this year?

  • 😂 Thats actually hilarious, if the kids are getting rich it's a by product. Trump has never cared about anyone but himself.

  • It's Fox News... That's the elephant in the room. You can't make progress when they are propoganda masquerading as news.

    The very fact that they haven't been sued into the ground or curtailed at all by the government lends them legitimacy. People believe what they see on the TV, especially if it makes them feel good.

  • I actually have an unfortunate amount of knowledge through education of the whole system... Didn't end up sticking with it because I didn't want to scam stupid and old people for transaction fees, and that's like half of investment finance. But anyway... Vibe trading is definitely a thing. It just works until it doesn't... I think it has to do with people starting to intuitively understand the way algorithms are pushing the market. They get really good at it, until the algorithms eventually change and they lose money.

    I think it's about not becoming overwhelmingly risk tolerant. They usually take larger and larger positions, becoming more sure of themselves before the market as they understand it changes, and they hoist themselves up by their own petards.

  • For my book report I did in the mid 1990s I remember citing at least two recent examples and a number of less recent examples.

  • Still akin to gambling. Although I do admit even the daily tariff news, seems comically easy to predict how the market reacts. I guess TD sold my account to Schwabb? So couldn't even play if I wanted to because I need to reactivate it or some shit.

  • You need to have wealth to really benefit. Say I make an awesome 7% on both the downside and upside and have $5,000 to gamble with. If you could somehow predict that play 3 times and invest all your 5k, you would walk away with an extra 2.5k, which while nice, isn't going to be life changing. Now if you have millions on the other hand...

    You could leverage your position with derivatives, but unless you know exactly when things will happen you could easily wipe out your $5k in a margin call.

  • Whatever the actual net value is, it's not that. There isn't just a 17 trillion pile of minerals sitting somewhere on the surface.

  • It's like being an eighth native American and claiming heritage without being a member of a tribe.

  • The most expensive part of an iPhone is the >50% profit margin

    An old chart:

  • At that point I would start questioning why that particular phone is subsidized so much. Seems sus.

  • It will come down to state budgets getting wrecked, not civil rights abuses. I also think they will coordinate and won't pull the trigger until they get multiple states ready to do it.

  • Proton
