    Yes, you should. I'm still waiting for Best Buy to get any in. It isn't even in their system yet. At the moment if they got one right now I'd be screwed because I've got a portion of my TV money being used for other crypto-related things, which I'm heavily invested in. Had that money ready to...

    Yep, I am, and I got that procedure very late as well because of issues. 5 years before the vas, to be precise. There is a disconnect a lot of the time. The thing is, all of these symptoms started being noticeable like literally the same week that I got the vas, as soon as I was able to bone...

    Yeah, I wish someone would have told me something that specific. Might not have done it given my track record of bad luck with injuries and doctors. Or maybe I would have and at least it'd be on me.

    Orgasms twice as good + intermittent awful pain...wow, some really weird-ass stuff can happen from this procedure. Urologists shrugged about reversing it, they have no idea if it'll help or not. There's also a possibility (40% IIRC) of sperm regaining motility after a reversal. So I'll be able...

    RIGHT? It's like they're all covering each other's asses. Believe me, I've considered this, especially considering the surgeon works for a very high-powered hospital system. Maybe THE most high-powered in his state. I went to urologists all the way in my hometown, far away from there, and got...

    Yeah, the temporary PLTR bounce was fun while it lasted. Considered selling last night just because I want to move away from PLTR, but didn't get around to it until it was too late today. Oh well. My week of paperhandsing and playing with new IPOs is coming to an end now as I'm re-investing the...

    My prediction was that it would see first-day surges/gains based off of the massive hype surrounding it, THEN drop down into a more reasonable price range. I never thought COIN was a 100 billion dollar company, but I did expect enough other people to buy in based on FOMO and whatever other...

    Oh okay, thought it was a mod request thing. 16-20 sounds about right. Not crazy about it going below 19 and it fell more today. The research I did do on it told me it was well worth it and had nowhere to go but up given the new administration's focus on EVs. And for a few weeks after said new...

    The game is rigged. It's the insiders and hedge funds making bank off of folks like me losing 20% of my COIN buy on days like this. Sure, regular people can make money and we've got lots here who do, but it doesn't change the fact that the table itself is rigged to make sure the house always...

    Well I'm out on COIN. Grabbed some early, watched the spike, didn't sell, held the line, waited for the rebound that I was sure would happen...nope. At this point in the day I think a large rebound would have happened already. Down 20%, that's enough. I'm not sure how anyone made anything on...

    Not gonna hold you responsible for my decisionmaking or anything, but do you think I'd be better off dumping LAZR the next time it has any kind of bump? If that even happens. I did a post above about all the things I paperhandsed that got better later, and here I am wanting to paperhands...

    Mine is going on 7 years and lately it started feeling a bit better (for a week or so) before going back to the usual. I don't know what I was doing differently that one week, if anything. I've gotten second opinions...and fourth opinions. Urologists seem completely and totally useless. They...

    I've never jumped on an IPO the day it launched before, don't know if I'll do it now. Still leaning towards using that money elsewhere. However for a one-day swing trade this seems to have potential. Yesterday I was speculating that it'd start strong, fall a bit out of the gate, then bounce...

    WELP. Selling at 63k expecting a drop was certainly a mistake. This is insanity. Buying back in now. Hate taking a hit when I work so hard to pull small percentages on swing trades. At least the price difference isn't too bad. Sold at 62.95 to be exact, buying at 64.40. What's really painful...

    I'm glad I read up on this thread because now I too am skeptical. I think there might be some money to be made in COIN tomorrow, like inside of the one day. Might try to get some in the morning if it dips from the insiders selling their overvalued stock, then get out before the end of the day...

    Speaking of 5, for some reason I got $4.99 of free BTC in Coinbase some time in the past couple days. Not sure why. I moved all of my BTC to Binance already so it was curious to see BTC pop up again in Coinbase with $5.34 in it.

    I feel that. I put a large amount of savings into stocks/cryptos this year, and I had roughly the same amount of savings a year ago, so I could have had like 5x as much right now by doing the same things then instead. Which is what I wanted to do at the time, until I balked because the future of...

    Yep, that was a nice surprise. Though given what I was reading yesterday about the COIN situation giving cryptos a bump today it wasn't too much of a surprise. My strategy is to hold Ethereum since I think it's on a steady climb and not worry about the ups and downs. Bitcoin I see as more...

    Thanks for letting me know. I went to test it with $50 and it had a $5 fee for the transfer. For a second I thought the transfer free was 10% and was horrified. Then I thought maybe it's a flat rate, and cranked it up to max...still $5. Whew. For a second I thought the gas prices were...

    Question, I'm moving things from Coinbase to Binance to get away from the horrendous fees. There was no problem moving most of my currencies, and all I have left is Ethereum. The Binance Ethereum wallet has a message saying "Make sure to only copy ERC20 tokens to this address". There's also an...

    I was reading about BNB and if I understood it correctly, a limited number of Binance Coin will exist, meaning the value in theory should reliably go up over time. Coinbase IPO tomorrow is causing huge spikes today. Seems like today would be the day to sell, unless the spike is going to...

    Agreed, the Velious armor sets were SWEET. I played a DE rogue back then and the fire painted on the chain armor looked outstanding. Velious was probably the game's apex in armor art designs. Then Luclin models went in and while they do add bulk to their armor sets, the visuals took a steep...

    Since I got picarded: Not the best picture but you get the idea. Redheaded human monks in leather armor are particularly aesthetically solid.

    For the most part, definitely prefer the old Wood Elf and Dark Elf chicks. Maybe even the High Elf. The Luclin models have one thing going for them though, the female human is pretty hot. Especially as a monk. "It's MA'AMazon! Get it right! IT IS MA'AMAZON!"

    What character? Scarlett? Personally I'd rather they just make male characters more aesthetically pleasing and leave female characters alone. That way everyone is aesthetically pleasing and everyone is happy. I'm against a lot of the de-sexiness that goes on in games now and I'm happy when it...

    That's what I thought was gonna happen. Edge pinned Bryan there, technically. Wonder if they're gonna make this a storyline, Edge claiming he's the actual winner and wanting a rematch. Otherwise, Roman really crushed both of his challengers. Wonder what's next for him. Would have been the...

    Huuuuuge spike this morning in a few things. ADA went from 1.22 to 1.29 and MANA went from 1.02 to 1.15 (ATH I think). Unfortunately the spike only lasted for a very short time, so I missed it. 9 AM spikes seem pretty common in crypto, even on weekends.

    So in theory this won't apply in a place with no capital gains tax (like Florida IIRC). In other words, don't be in NY or CA if you're going to be a heavy crypto fiend, be in FL or a comparable state? Just another thing to add to the growing list of reasons to move to FL! Also, the good news...

    Just discovered Coinbase actually does charge fees for converting from one coin to another. When you buy in or out it charges you fees, and it actually tells you (generally about 3%, I think). When you exchange, it charges you 2% and doesn't tell you. Was in for a surprise when I suddenly had...

    Yeah, that figures. I've kept track of my trades, luckily. So I can get a calculator and go run the numbers once I figure all of this out. It's gonna be a massive pain in the ass, yes. Right now I'm moving a bunch of BTC to Eth. Gonna stick to that rather than selling until I work everything out.

    I've been exchanging instead of buying/selling primarily to avoid Coinbase's fees (plus it's more fun). It works well for that purpose. As far as tax dodging goes...I don't know. If I sell a crypto for $2000 and then buy it back later on a dip, I no longer have that money so it probably...
