    A bit ironic that it was created to be decentralized and not tied to financial institutions and then Wall Street sunk its teeth into it and now it's inextricably linked

    That would require coming up with a strike price and duration and having to cover. I'm not normally an active trader and had no confidence in my own knowledge of the situation. I wouldn't have put much money into SPXU anyway so it's really more of a "what if" kind of musing than anything else.

    I'm kind of kicking myself for not creating a new brokerage account to throw some money in SPXU like I was planning on doing. All of my money is with Vanguard and they discontinued trading on inverse and leveraged ETFs in 2019.

    Men's Fashion

    Ever since I started buying Allen Edmonds I haven't had to replace a single pair of shoes (some are close to 10 years old). I've never had to have them restitched or resoled either. It's a case of spending more up front to save money long term (they are also way more stylish).

    McMillion$ (HBO Documentary)

    Some of you guys are ridiculous. A lot of the people they interviewed know they fucked up, admit they were wrong, and were surprised and thankful that they got off as easy as they did. Most of them showed real remorse. The documentary never tried to frame them as sympathetic characters, that's...

    You're giving the banking industry entirely too much credit. Greed is a powerful force. Anyway that's not really the point. Politicians are overreacting to public hysteria and causing more strain on their local economies. Most Americans can't afford to have their kids home from school for any...

    People aren't thinking rationally right now. Travel bans, the NBA cancelling their season, schools shutting down. I honestly don't know what's going to happen.

    For now. Until the rest of the economy catches up to what is happening in the market and companies start shutting down and people start losing their jobs en masse. I work in healthcare so I'm not too worried about it, but this is quickly becoming alarming for most Americans and much more than a...

    I have no doubt that if I go back and get another DQP at my McDonald's I will probably be disappointed. The one I got was obviously made to order. 9 times out of 10 you're probably not actually getting a "made to order" burger like I did that night. But I'm not an amateur. My food opinion is...

    I am as knowledgable as I need to be. You are trying to sell me insurance against what? What you are doing right now is exactly the problem, put options aren't complicated and I'm not "unknowledgeable". Just read your own words. Typical insurance salesman, acting like the racket was created for...

    The point I'm making is there is no place for an "option" in a legitimate investment market. There are odds makers involved in the pricing schema for put options the same way there are odds makers involved in any casino. Selling an option is essentially creating money out of thin air for the...

    "Deeper investing" is mostly bullshit "investment vehicles" or "products" that quite honestly shouldn't exist. There are people who are savvy enough to take advantage of them but by and large they are created to take advantage of the layman and take their money, not help them invest. I even find...

    Uh... the kickstarter was a joke, it was thrown together in what seemed like maybe 5 minutes with very little info and the most idiotic stretch goals. Nobody tanked it. It barely made half of the 800k it was asking for (which wouldn't even have been close to enough to make the game either).

    No Man's Sky

    This is one of those few games that promised big and (eventually) delivered. It really is unfathomably big and there are some cool little hidden bits about how to get your true coordinates so other people can find you and vice versa. There are still plenty of problems, like the worst crafting...
