been flipping out about Trump's tariffs and like railing on him....and that's with Trump basically making the Indexes go up 20% last year. Maybe there's a reason to be worried, but it's fucking hard to time the market, and this guy who sold this morning (if he's honest) just lost out on gainz.
## Speaker_1: ##
I feel like Trump is going to pull some 4D Underwater Chinese Checkers with how he's not backing down on tariffs. Trump personally feels responsible for the market improving since he's taken office, he would be dumb to impose tariffs that do nothing but make the market react badly and go down. He'll probably announce some dumb shit once enough traction has been made with tariffs like how he's reversed his decision and resigned into TPP or some shit just to fuck with everyone.
Guess we'll see in the next few weeks if this was all a ploy to force what he wants with global markets or if he's really just not that good at economic policies.
## Speaker_0: ##
TPP will not be signed into law. I don't think anyone is saying tariffs will be a boon for economy. But I think we should trust Trump, even as investors.
Lots over in /r/investing sold Friday and premarket today.
## Speaker_1: ##
The dudes at r/investing are dumb for selling. Just set a trailing stop loss or something if you have long shares. Literally impossible to get wrecked with shares unless you hold all the way down (or if you went all in on some dumb penny stock or biotech).

Boys, listen up.
We've got someone who's got BOOTS ON THE GROUND inside of a mother fucking HIGH SCHOOL, where entire nations economies are either made, or are catastrophically destroyed.
The fact that you all are berating him sickens me. He's got his ear to the ground, he hears what all these 16 year old kids whisper in the halls about what they think they want to major in in high school, that Brittany's tits got bigger over summer, that lunch today is fucking chicken patties again. He sees all of it. No bullshit economic reports, secondary sources citing models and data that are probably just all made up anyway, who cares.
The point here is the storm is brewing. Just the other day, both Brent and Dave said "I think I want to major in CompSci idk". Soon it will be everyone.
And as OPs flawless logic says (again, how are you missing this?) if everyone majors in CompSci our country will be a post apocalyptic wasteland. There will be no doctors, construction workers, teachers, accountants. They will all just be looking for tech jobs that DO NOT EXIST. And you might say well, in an oversaturated job market, wouldn't someone just be economically incentivized to follow another career path?
And the answer is yes, OP stop [posting in hentai subs](https://www.reddit.com/r/hentai/comments/4mg6yh/itou_life_laying_down/) and [saying nigger on the internet](https://www.reddit.com/r/WhiteRights/comments/4rssx9/the_shooters_from_today_are_niggers/) and skip straight to killing yourself.

You've got two options now:
Chase your high and lose most of that in other risky plays on the market in the coming months.
or
Diversify into solid stocks and ETFs and retire in 5 years, that's seriously life changing money at your age and you should now be thinking defensively.
## Speaker_1: ##
You can't retire on 300-400k at 25... not in this country at least. Swear y'all are acting like this dude is into 7 figures.
## Speaker_2: ##
You cant even retire at 20 with 1 million.
However, you definitely can retire early if you have 450k when you're 20. Invest it and work for a few decades and you can reasonably expect to have 2 million when you're 40 (7% growth per year with a 10k annual contribution).
## Speaker_3: ##
You can retire with 1 million easily.
As long as you have the $1M diversified in the markets, you can withdraw 3.5-4.0% of the total amount practically indefinitely since the S&P 500 has returned 9.8% annualized since basically forever. If you're frugal you can live on $35,000-$40,000 a year.
EDIT: [Here's proof](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinity_study) for the autists thinking you need more to retire on.
## Speaker_4: ##
The people who say you can't retire on 1 mil are people who think it's inevitable that you have to buy more expensive things all the time. Millions live their entire lives on 40k or less while killing themselves working every day and you're going to tell me you can't make it work when you don't have to do anything at all? Get out of here with that garbage.
## Speaker_5: ##
Another good point I saw someone make is that you’ll probably earn some extra money ( not enough to solely live on) doing side projects or jobs when you’re ‘retired’. Because if you’re retiring early you’ve got a shit load of free time with fuck-all to do.
## Speaker_6: ##
Get a part time gig at a Home Depot or Hooters or something
## Speaker_5: ##

Weird. I had no idea police entered schools.
## Speaker_1: ##
They do. About 40% of schools have police “resource officers” or something to that effect. The worse part is that parents and kids don’t even know that they shouldn’t talk to them. With that said. Many people hardly know about not talking to police on the street. But it seems even fewer people know that about cops in schools.
Edit: what I meant by “talk” was in the context of an investigation. Not friendly banter or whatever.
## Speaker_2: ##
Not American and did not follow school shootings closely. Assuming your comment is not a joke, why should you NOT talk to cops?
## Speaker_3: ##
It's not just an American thing. Cops have a huge amount of power over you and a small percentage of cops are bad people who became cops to abuse that power. Talking to them will open up opportunities for them to fuck you over.
Basically talking to a random cop is roughly equivalnt of going into the woods at night with a random person. I mean sure most random people aren't going to murder you, but the one who wants to gets a big opportunity alone in the woods.
Cops are dangerous. More dangerous than any crime in my city at any rate.
## Walls1337bot: ##
> a small percentage of cops are bad people who became cops to abuse that power
You obviously don't know a lot of cops, I'd say 70% of cops are the last people you want to give that kind of power to, it's not an occupation that attracts the best and brightest.
Being a rich white guy, the only reason I know this is how many losers I grew up with that became cops, and then meeting their loser cop buddies. Even shitty cops will play it cool with the general public, they commit all their crimes against people who's word no one believes.

Actual good advice? Certainly does not belong here
## Speaker_1: ##
Not really. Businesses cost time and require capital. At 19 the best time and wealth investment is focusing on your work. Then when you're not a retarded shit 19 year old and got 80k+ coming in, you can actually run a business right and don't have to worry about bankruptcy. At 19, the best bet is buying a 4br condo for school with parents credit and renting out 3 rooms.
## Speaker_2: ##
What line of work do you recommend a 19 year old go in cuz I don’t wanna be poor :-(
## Speaker_1: ##
Depends. Trades if you don't want to be in school a long time, but you'll be doing a shitload of hard and repetitive work. You'll be aching in pain at 40. Anesthesiology if you can stomach a nursing degree and a masters. Petroleum is a gamble but you can learn anything for that, get rich for a bit, and do the same work elsewhere if the market goes bad. They pay retarded salaries, I've heard of truck drivers making 150k. https://www.reddit.com/r/oilandgasworkers/comments/9wwe9p/what_do_you_do_and_how_much_do_you_make/
Otherwise, look for something here you could do. https://www.glassdoor.com/blog/50-highest-paying-college-majors/. It sounds cheesy as shit, but do find something you could at least halfway enjoy. If money is the only motive, think of it in terms of being able to work more years and get more promotions if you don't hate your job.

Market goes up and this sub turns into r/T_D. Market goes down and this sub turns into r/all. I love it.
## Speaker_1: ##
Not exactly. My current theory is that this sub is split 50/50 against Trump, and when one side looks better they speak up and the other side shuts up and vice versa. So it gives the illusion we're all bandwagons.
## Speaker_2: ##
It's mostly pro trump. Clinton/Bernie supporters don't have any money to invest.
## Speaker_3: ##
And yet the stereotypical trump supporter is also labeled as poor (and white and rural).
Apparently everybody supporting any candidate is poor, judging by the stereotypes.

$50,000-$100,000 income voted 50% Trump, 46% Clinton. It was the biggest margin of victory for Trump vs any other income group.
It's complicated because if you look at education attainment, the higher you make it through college, the more likely you were to vote for Clinton. However, the higher you make it through college, the higher your wages are.
So really, it's just a quirk of statistics. We can actually glean something from this.
People who have attained lots of education, BS+, but have not attained a high income for whatever reason *overwhelmingly* supported Clinton.
People who have attained high income, despite having less than a BS in education attainment, *overwhelmingly* supported Trump.
It's the only way to really get the numbers we are seeing from the exit polling data.

You're crazy dude I bought in at $20 and bailed as soon as the headline hit about FB. I converted to Facebook, match won't be able to stand a chance.

## Speaker_1: ##

## Speaker_0: ##
If you're looking for a quick 10% bounce back up I suppose it may be worth the chance but if any type of good news comes out about how successful the dating feature is for FB within that small time-frame Match is gonna get crushed.
I was HUGE on Match as my long term best play in my portfolio until this news broke. Online dating is massive but FB just wrecked them the moment that happened.
I like Netgear as a solid play with gaming companies looking good and 5G networks on the horizon. US is also banning Chinese tech so Netgear may get a huge bump from that too.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Not talking about investment here. We just want a good quick gain and leave the fuck out.

I get that but why bet on mtch taking a bounce rather than fb. You're banking on mtch going up faster than fb after bad news.
Too much risk. You ca probably bank on fb being up 3% this week and if some shit goes south it's a safe long bet.
You would need match to go up over 3% this week with a falling knife. Whsts the ceiling, 10%? I say fb is the safer play with more upside to match the same profit percentage

My wife is currently holding 500k in cash. Has been blindly saving in a 2% account for about 3 years now. She buys rental properties nearly all cash and thinks leveraged rentals are higher risk.
She absolutely refuses to do 5 year longs or any form of trading because her brother and mother have "lost it all" in the stock market. I badgered her for the last two years about playing long ETF's and force fed her a bunch of ETF propaganda. She likes to read fortunes and found out that this year I am supposed to make a huge financial gain and was ready to buy in but my losses this year evoked her mistrust of the market.
I realized too late that I married a high functioning autist. It physically hurts me that she is holding that much cash in a fucking savings account.

## Speaker_0: ##
I am being 100% serious for the first time on this sub. Let me list the things that she does to be able to save that money.
* Reuse paper towels. Yup, she hangs them up to dry and uses them over and over.
* She drove a Yaris until some guy hit her at like 15 mph and it totaled the car not because the impact was severe, but because the thing was just that worthless in value. Her car before that was a Toyota Echo that more or less blew up randomly.
* I did not know 1-ply toilet paper existed before I met her
* She has returned groceries before and gotten refunds
* All lights are out by 7pm right after dinner. She goes to bed at like 8pm which actually isn't bad because I can just play my computer games in the dark. But still, I have to use the flashlight app on my phone to walk around my own damn house.
* Always does taxes by hand. Maybe not that extreme to some, but I always use Turbotax so watching her do it manually makes me want to slit my wrists.
* Dollar Tree is her home base
* She fought me tooth and nail when I wanted to hire some people to trim the massive bushes in front of the house. I gave up and went to Lowes to buy some hedge trimmers to do it myself and I come home to see her out there with a fucking pair of scissors and one of those saw-blade style kitchen knives going at it. She made me return the trimmer.
* She was the greatest slave master when we did renovations to the house. I had bought the house before we met, but it wasn't in the best shape to begin with and as a first-time homeowner I wasn't exactly good at the upkeep. We did all of the gutting, cutting, flooring, painting, etc. ourselves for the entire fucking house. It took two full years to complete and I think I actually cried once when I suffered a really bad frostbite (or so I thought at the time) while patching a plastic covering over our 3-season porch window during the middle of a snowstorm.
* I had to keep the house at 50 degrees at night or up to 55 when we were active around the house in the winter in New England.
* I am actually somewhat autistic (self-diagnosed) and bought one of those weighted blankets. She made me return it and sowed me a blanket weighed down by what I can only assume are extremely old beans. She also patches my clothing which I appreciate since I only have like 3 pairs of pants.
I mean, it is a decent life but it was quite a shock at first getting used to living together.

just exercise the options and hold shares until price goes back up. why you buy calls if you don’t want the shares? ��
/s
## Speaker_1: ##
could this be a way to limit downside risk of call options?
buy a 35 call but still exercise even if it's like 33 and that way you still get the shares even if you lose $200 in value
then if the stock price ever rises above 35 you're good
like a reverse put
## Speaker_2: ##
Why exercise and buy at 35 when you could buy at 33
## Speaker_1: ##
if you exercise every option then you never really lose you just buy things in the future. it's a way to look at it so that you can ignore the greeks and instead use options solely for leverage
## Speaker_3: ##
Sounds like you’re ready to start trading options on margin
## Speaker_1: ##
this lets you 100x tho basically since you're getting 100 stocks for the price of 1 contract as long as you make the money to cover the call in the interim then it's like buying them in the future and the premium is like the interest on the loan. a call contract is just saying you're going to buy 100 stock. if you always execute then you can ignore the greeks and simplify the math
it just turns into a hedge against a drastic price increase

You left out car loans - literally as bad as student loans
## Speaker_1: ##
implying i got time to make OC. but car loans are really that bad too? damn nothing is stopping this market
## Speaker_2: ##
I read an article the other day about how 7 year loan durations are 'the new thing'. My friends thought I was crazy when I got a 3 year loan because "your payment must be so high!" I ended up paying it off 6 months early. These people amaze me.
## Speaker_3: ##
One massively overlooked issue with those long term auto loans is what can potentially happen if the car gets wrecked during the final few years of the loan. The car can depreciate to the point where it's worth less than what you owe on the loan. If the car gets wrecked, insurance will cut you a check and you'll probably be left with debt and no car.
But muh lower monthly payments amirite?
## Speaker_4: ##
This is a stupid metric. Take the loan that minimises the total discounted cost of capital. If you can get 70 months at 0 % why wouldn't you take it?
## Speaker_5: ##
Because for most people longer loan terms increases the risk of irresponsible economic behaviour.
Sure, if you get 0&#37; interest rate, have the cash in hand, put it in a savings account and use that money to pay of the car, then that's a great financial decision. If you spend the difference in monthly free cash flow on weed and iPhones then not so much. It's a behavioural problem, not an economic one.
## Walls1337bot: ##

My first landlord did this. Came to the US from Guatemala at 15 years old with nothing. Worked three jobs for years. Bought his first home and started renting rooms out. Leveraged equity to buy the next property. Rinse and repeat. By the age of 30 he had numerous properties across three states valued at over 3.5 million. Sold enough property to create a liquid cash base and lives off of rental income and the interest off his 2-2.5 mil in cash. Lives nicely but fairly modestly but hasn't really worked, unless you consider travelling and managing his own properties, since he was 26.
I think about all the money I've paid in student loans and what I've gained/lost in the markets and I want to smash the phone I'm typing on. If I had it to do all over again I'd say fuck college and just do what this guy did. He had it rough for a few years but the last 2/3 of his life are going to be spent not worrying about a fucking thing. Dude is my hero.
## Speaker_4: ##
Your story doesn't make a lick of sense. He hasn't been working since he was 26 ? How old was he when he started flipping homes, like 20 ? How long then did he work three jobs for ?
## Speaker_3: ##
Not working a traditional job, no. He had the cash to put a serious down payment on a home at like 20, or 21, kept working and buying homes. He wasn't flipping at least initially. He buys 4+ bedroom homes, sometimes even adds a room and/or converts a garage to a room, and then rents out all the rooms. 4-6 people, each paying $500 - $850 a month in Southern California, is more than enough to cover the mortgage from day 1. These are homes mostly in Santa Ana, Anaheim, Pomona and similar areas.

## Speaker_2: ##
honestly its probably broad market profit takers that are triggering bots to sell which are triggering more bots to sell.
short $ROBO
## Speaker_3: ##
This is probably the most likely. Price action tends to make a trader say "ahhhh good run up, let me take some profits" a bot spots it and says "ahhhh the order flow that I'm parasitizing is selling, let me take some profits" another bot spots that and says "ahhhh good, the bot I'm parasitizing is selling, let me take some profits." The trader then sees the negative price action and says "Interesting...heavy volume selling through key technical points, let me sell" and so on and so on. I'm pretty sure if you did enough homework you could spot this more often than not, jump in on it, and profit on these surges (and make the effect worse of course).
Edit: Coincidentally I was listening to a podcast today where the people being interviewed said they have empirical evidence that this sort of price behavior started around 2003 and has been accelerating and getting worse. Tails on the price distribution are getting fatter, the mean of the bell curve is getting pulled higher, etc. What they didn't bring up (which occurs to me) is how if this is the case, then option prices are not in anyway reflecting the actual risk inherent in them and no one should be selling them for anywhere near the premium levels they're selling at. Here's a link to it, they start talking about it towards the end: https://www.trendfollowing.com/2016/07/07/ep-465-sunrise-capital-michael-covel-trend-following-radio/

Hollywood accounting can be pretty sketchy too, which is another reason to take the cash. They’re accounting practices should be fraudulent but for whatever reason isn’t.

That’s crazy, didn’t that movie make a fortune? I’ve always been fascinated by the whole concept of Hollywood accounting. Do you know any good sites that I could do more research?
## Walls1337bot: ##
It isn't that complicated in an example scenario, studios set up a dummy company for the movie, which contains the budget and marketing costs, and then studios charge that company ridiculous fees for distribution which means that they have to have way bigger box office than possible. So the dummy company loses money.
I don't know how it's still legal either, but its why in negotiations actors typically look for net points rather than profit points.

I'd pay good money to see /r/wallstreetbets and /r/LateStageCapitalism get into a flame war.
## Speaker_1: ##
You know, I've always wondered why they call it "late stage" capitalism. Why not just capitalism?
## Speaker_2: ##
Because they believe capitalism is cancer. In today's age, it's in late stage. So, it's like a disease on the verge of killing its host.
## Speaker_1: ##
That's bizarre. I've read up on socialism and support some of its tenets like helping the poor. Didn't read anything about this. I've heard the phrase "late capitalism" at feminist meetings too which was weird to me.
Actually, I was at those meetings to meet other folks dealing with similar issues.
## Walls1337bot: ##
[deleted]
## Speaker_1: ##
This is a very black and white view of history but I understand why those with an apocalyptic mindset would believe something of the sort.
Things like capitalism and socialism are pretty much mixed together in modern economies, there is some unsanctioned trade within command economies as well.
Even during the feudal era, trade existed and was common especially in cities where almost nobody lived on a manor, while a form of communism existed in religious groups.
## Walls1337bot: ##
[deleted]
## Speaker_1: ##
Economies transition from subsistence farming to industrialized all the time. In fact this is happening in 'developing' countries right now. But it's rare that 'capitalism' is something to transition out of.
The few economies that transitioned to a specific type of communism were different and the evidence shows that they may be transitioning to capitalism, in fact.
Before communism, countries like Russia and China had economic and political situations that were nothing like modern, western powers that are often derided as "late capitalist" or "neoliberal".
The average lifestyle there was similar to the medieval peasant and the leaders identified it as feudal (even if it wasn't exactly feudal).

Look, having nuclear—my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart—you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world—it’s true!—but when you're a conservative Republican they try—oh, do they do a number—that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune—you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged—but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me—it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right—who would have thought?), but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners—now it used to be three, now it’s four—but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years—but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.

Such fucking bullshit he’s in a prison that housed a fucking mob boss and coke dealer. Fucking bullshit.
## Speaker_1: ##
That is where you go when you do "white collar" crimes. Even the federal prisons that haven't housed a major mob boss and coke dealer, if you're in minimum security you're basically in camp.
This was what I was told from a prisoner in the federal prison in Florida "If you're going to be a criminal make sure it is fraud or something like that, on the felony level. That way you're in minimum security and it isn't bad at all. You get conjugal visits, eat decent food, are kept away from all violent offenders, and there are no worries about being raped in the shower.
Shit, even if I could go back in time and change what I did, I wouldn't. I was surrounded by guys who spent more on a suit than the average fucker makes in a month."
## Walls1337bot: ##
Federal Prison doesn't for allow conjugal visits. Only California, Connecticut, New York and Washington have them.
## Speaker_1: ##
Thank you for clearing that one up for me. That does make it seem a little more like punishment than he was making it out to be.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Anecdotal stories from nonviolent prisoners in camps have told me that the guards let them take their girls to the bathroom to bone them and they couldn't be more chill. However the BOP does ban conjugal visits;

Where do I turn in my full semi-automatic?
## Speaker_1: ##
At the 1000000 rpm station where they also buy your 200 round extended glock clips that make your gun shoot faster along with your silencer that makes your gun a “ghost gun” and turns you invisible.
## Speaker_2: ##
Don't forget the cop killer bullets that not only kill cops but their entire extended family as well.
## Speaker_1: ##
Oh how could I forget! And also remember the incindiery “heat seeking” explosive armor piercing rounds that cost 15 cents a piece and can blow up a city block! Wow why does our government allow such atrocities?! People could hurt each other with them!
## Walls1337bot: ##
Will they accept my baby skull-seeking rounds?

But it cost the Hang Seng 20% - suck it China

That's actually kinda the point. War is about inflicting more damage than you take yourself, winning via attrition.
## Walls1337bot: ##
how about we dont damage either side? it's even easier than winning the trade war since you just do nothing and all is well.
## Speaker_2: ##
>your rival catches up to you since dont proactively act against them
>all is well
## Walls1337bot: ##
First of all, I am not sure what is wrong with the world equalizing as long as it is the poor countries becoming richer (rather than richer countries becoming poorer). The more wealthy individual chinese/indians/africans become the more they have to lose and the more they are interested in trade, IP protection, and freedom in general. Right now an average Chinese person is still incredibly poor. Their GDP per capita is $8.8k real, $16.7k PPP; a large part of the government support comes from the that people finally have decent apartments, plenty of food, access to some level of medical care, ability to educate their children, etc.. they don't have access to "luxuries" on broad basis.
Second, the current trade war doesn't actually do anything to create a differential between china/us capabilities. It simply harms both with little benefit. Do we really think US companies will have better access to Chinese markets, even if the Chinese government lowers their tariffs, given all the bad will this will garner from Chinese consumers? Boycott of American goods by chinese consumers is already a thing, and it will only worsen (it is also something you can't "negotiate" on a governmental level).
Third, one of the big drivers of the nationalistic and repressive power in CCP is the notion of "china being abused by imperialists" (sick man of asia narrative). Like the russian blame game, this allows the chinese government to focus on external enemies (the west), thereby continuing their totalitarian policy at home (thus China has internment camps with more than a million people being imprisoned without judicial oversight). By providing the CCP with a convenient boogyman, we are feeding their power and repressive capability.
Edit: words are hard, edited language after rereading.

Nah man trigger discipline
## Walls1337bot: ##
No. This is America.
## Speaker_1: ##
Yeah bruh, where two-thirds of all gun deaths are suicides. Trigger discipline needs to be taught to prevent accidental death and not encourage someone to kill themselves too easily
## Walls1337bot: ##

Accidental gun deaths are negligible and falling. Suicide is intentional, how the fuck is teaching people trigger discipline going to help with that?
