I crushed it in 2020 and was on track to being able to retire before 70 but then I bought Amazon and now I get to work until I die.I went total boom/bust with SPAC Indie Semi. Haven't owned it a months and not even sure where it's at now.
This has been the best year I've ever had, $ gain and %. A lot of it started in 2020 by loading up on the cheap, but 2021 beat 2020 for me. Still have 15 years until retirement so a lot can happen. This is the first year though where I feel retirement (15 years at most???) is a reality and not just a thought and plan.
Never know when the woman across the street will be walking around her apartment completely naked.I won the contest in 2018 and finished DFL in 2019 with a stock that would have beaten the brakes off of chet in 2020. It's the nature of the contest.
Jeez SOFI - I liked you a lot better a week ago.

I put in two picks that definitely weren’t my best long term stocks. They were stocks I was hoping might do well.
Also, wasn’t your pick FLGT? If so, it’s still up like 70%+ this year. It was up 200%+ at one point but still a good stock. That’s actually one of my favorite stocks for the next 5 years. That said, it’s still under 2% of my portfolio.
I like seeing this:Finally got SE, hopefully this is near the bottom.
Similar to SE in a different region, MELI is basically at its 52 week low.Finally got SE, hopefully this is near the bottom.
I looked this morning and was like, awesome, I’ll take a flat day. Oof.when does Santa come? JFC
Our 401ks (closer to indexes) have done fantastic this year, my stocks not so much. I think I’d probably have kept up with the market if I hadn’t added a bunch in January-ish. Some stocks I added were fine but added enough losers to keep me under performing. Was getting back close before Friday. Now, not so much!I picked FLGT in that one, but it also isn't a huge holding. Really a lot of my picks weren't great this year, but the oversized WFC position I acquired when it was depressed more than made up for it last time I calced my YTD across accounts.
I’m out!!!Never know when the woman across the street will be walking around her apartment completely naked.
You're supposed to buy the dip, not sell itI took money out of stocks, and bought I series US savings bonds today.
TDOC paid $18.5 billion for Livingo. TDOC’s market cap today is $16.5 billion.
TDOC is an oddball. They are treated almost like ZM as a COVID only stock. It’s weird because after this quarter, 2021 revenue looks to be about double 2020. 100% growth after almost 100% growth from 2019-2020. Obviously, those numbers helped by Livongo. That said, it’s got a P/S of about 8, which is cheap for 100% growth. Even if they slow down a bit, the country opening up in 2021 sure didn’t slow them down. I think it ran too far but it’s a great value now if you are looking out a few years and the merger/analyst projections are correct.TDOC paid $18.5 billion for Livingo. TDOC’s market cap today is $16.5 billion.
Reacquired half the Fulgent sold at $100. Covid ramping up...another 3 months of printing money for them.
Anyways, if you are not in at all, consider it.
If we start out with a bit of a puke on the small/mid names that have been hammered, I’ll start going shopping. I’d rather start out red and close green than the reverse, but in any event it’s about time to spend some of this cash I raised (checks notes) less than two weeks ago.Buckle up, kids
Mancini said yesterday that this day is green 70% of the time. So of course it’s ugly.Buckle up, kids
The market seems to like $GLBE’s acquisitionI’m a 0.5% green but not feeling good.
I think this will be proven true soon, fyi. A positive capital raise but dilution nonetheless.ETA: Plus I remain convinced GLBE will issue a secondary for acquisitions
I like that and I made it a full share when I grabbed more at $52 so it’s now locked and loaded. Looking around at some other stocks and thinking about consolidating but I’m still a bit weary.The market seems to like $GLBE’s acquisition

I'm headed to Coinbase to open an account in order to buy some ALGO, in case you're looking for a novel way to lose money playing crypto.I have to be the only donkey in the world that has done nothing but lost money trying to play crytpo. Whether it was that FBG collective by Cav, chasing GBTC or my latest endeavor, I'm just not figuring it out.

Let's meet again for beers and I'll walk you through all of it.Is that the coin with a dog on it? I don't get any of this.
GLBE is a nice surprise. Need another one of these days to get back to even.Up 2.46% as of this post with $GLBE and $ETSY hulking out but most of my stuff is green today.
Maybe he means ALPO, like the dog foodIs that the coin with a dog on it? I don't get any of this.
Yeah, I'm sure a few high ABV IPAs ought to clear up any confusion I have over crypto.Let's meet again for beers and I'll walk you through all of it.
I’ll only talk in concepts and relatable analogies. I’ll leave out the details so we can also blaze up!Yeah, I'm sure a few high ABV IPAs ought to clear up any confusion I have over crypto.![]()
