that's not bad but i think people are in crypto for faster gains than that. i could see how a safe 32% is appealing if you already had a lot of money but not very useful if you're poor and would make that much from a few shifts at work anyway lol. that seems like a great power play you did but i don't really know much about how volatile stocks are especially when the future of the economy is uncertain. how risky of a gamble was it to do what you did?

Didn't feel risky. I priced them against their pre-covid value, and realized the 2 trillion bailout was going to go to big businesses, and the ones i picked were large cap so they were going to feed from the federal trough and come back strong. And they did. Made a few lambos on amazon alone.

Buying cryptos is like buying lottery tickets: they're losers, and designed to fleece the desperate from their money. Blockchain itself is a solution looking for a problem to solve and there are few that it can do better than a normal ledger because people don't tend to do business with untrusted / distrusted parties. Where cryptos work great: chain of evidence / tracking, land / asset title, cybercrime, and drug deal.

I get the desire to get rich quick, and that is what the scammers running the shitcoins are depending on. They win by keeping you poor and desperate. Just look at all the coin shill post in /biz/, all ready to hype you up and separate you from your money. Stocks are SEC regulated and audited and run by zillion dollar firms that aren't going anywhere. Sure, your growth isn't going to be astronomical, but that is how everything starts. Fifteen years ago I was broke, but by the power of growth and compounding, I win. If someone had kept stealing my seeds, like cryptos do, I would never be where I am now. I'd want you to be just as successful.

The only way we are getting to a post-scarcity economy is by unlocking fusion energy. Once we have fusion, that means unlimited power. What were the most inefficient chemical reactions are now irrelevant. You'll be able to desalinate ocean water, remove CO2 from the atmosphere, refreeze the ice caps, and turn the odometer on the planet back to zero. We desperately need fusion if we want to solve inequality and scarcity. As things currently stand, AI is poised to wipe out the global economy from a workforce standpoint. And with us unlocking the human genome, we have human immortality within possibly our lifetimes. We live in the most dangerous time ever, it is easy to see from that the solution to the fermi paradox is self-extinction.

Early blockchain was a lightning strike. You could have been investing in beanie babies. I've got a few friends that are in 9 figures on crypto. Not because they are savvy traders, they are infosec/crypto guys who were there when the faucet was turned on. Shit, I had BTC back when it was $17 per coin and my roommate paid me rent with it. Am I crying now? No. I made 4x on it when I sold it. Nobody thought it was going anywhere, just like the next big lightning strikes aren't going to be obvious either.

np, anon. I use morgan stanley, but that is because I have enough funds now that I can borrow money with them at mortgage rates. Borrowing at 1.5% over prime while my stocks are growing and giving me more leverage is like free money. I would pick something where you are paying the least. Get up a few thousand dollars and see if they will open a line of credit for you to collateralize your securities against, then you have leverage without having to be lucky on options. I don't get my financial advice from those idiots, they are there to sell a product and collect fees, and I'm not in the getting fucked business.

Fair. I also don't expend effort on studying roulette strategies either. At the end of the day, you're overlooking that there is no valuable asset behind the coins, and unlike the dollar there is no military might to back up the perceived value. I simply don't have faith in cryptocurrencies that don't meet this basic checklist:

1) Does it operate better than a malleable ledger?
2) Does it have a real-world use or asset backing?
3) Does it have a large enough userbase to justify the capitalization?

If you don't have a "yes" to all three of those, you're not investing, you're gambling.

I think ETH ticks the boxes for all 3

1 and 2: Stablecoins (like USDC) are gaining traction and are going to be used by visa. stablecoins have the advantages of crypto without the volatility, and all of them are issued on ethereum pretty much. There are other cool things happening like DeFi and NFTs and DAOs. For example, right now I can open a margin long on ETH on decentralized markets like dydx and I can trade between ETH and a ton of shitcoins and stablecoins with a single tx on Uniswap. Granted there is some friction with tx fees but ETH 2.0 will fix that as well as make ETH a bond like asset, meaning investors can get interest on their ETH for helping secure the network.
3: 1 million users now have a browser extension that lets them fuck around with this ecosystem. the number of users that use eth is probably much higher than this number. Visa is also going to allow USDC payments, and USDC is on the ethereum network.

BTC also satisfies all 3, but I guess to a lesser extent as its only purpose is to allow people to send money trustlessly.
1 and 2: Yes if you are trying to send money internationally. Try sending some guy in Russia $100k with traditional banking, it takes forever and you get raped with fees. With BTC it happens in 10 minutes and you pay like a few dollars in fees. I used to buy crypto with fiat online, and it was always easier for people to send me crypto than for me to send them fiat, especially if they live internationally. Also, BTC is a store of value and has the highest security out of all the chains.
3. A shitton of people own bitcoin now, and grayscale and hedge funds are buying tons of them.

Just don't bet the farm on it and start earning regular returns. I would also recommend a book my father gave to me called Richest Man in Babylon. The essence is to set aside 20% of your paycheck to pay yourself first, and to set that 20% to earning more money for yourself without succumbing to the pitfalls in the book.

How does one even start something like that? I have not a lot of capital and can't code so I couldn't pay someone to do it and can't do it myself. I have two ideas that are in niches that haven't been hit yet but are massive money makers. Need an app and a good website probably.

You don't need an app, you just need a job and to live within your means and pay yourself first. Even with my app that came out to like $125k/yr.

Normal for me is 25% - 40% a year. Let's say you're 20 now. If you make let's call it $80k per year in a normie job, and put aside 20% of your income for investment, that is $16k per year to play with and you never get a better job that allows more savings.

Now let's say you invest in stocks, and focus on making 40% per year. In 10 years, when you are 30, you will have $1.2m, in 5 more years you'll have $6.2m.

Even at a brokefag income level, it doesn't take long to hit critical mass as long as you are consistently setting money aside, not eating your gains, and not investing in shit that gets wiped out. For example, let's say the coins crash. You lose 70 - 100% of your value. Bummer you're wiped out. Now let's say you're investing in american companies, and that market crashes. Even in a catastrophic event you only lose 30% of the value, and that will come back within a couple years if you can hold your breathe.

Notice all the guys in this thread talking about how they made 300%+ last week. Cool story, how much did you lose all those other times? Can they reliably produce those results? Because if they could you would be a billionaire in under a year. But they can't, they are on here investing in shitcoins trying to get lucky.

I consider myself still learning and I'm an idiot about this stuff compared to day traders. I don't do options, I don't think I'm smart enough or have insider knowledge on most events, and I'm not desperate enough to try. Firstly I would avoid forex and "investing" tutorials offered by trading platforms. The education those trading platforms put out is horrible, the are training you to be predictable to them so they can wipe out your money because they secretly are on the other side of your bets, and they manipulate the platform so you lose your money. OK now that i've told you what not to do ...

I would say if you have an employer that offers 401k and matching take advantage of it and start following the market and watching where the returns are. You'll need to be plugged into finance news (motley fool, marketwatch, simplywall.st, scott galloway) and gain a little financial experience. Start small, get comfortable with doing an investment and not touching it for a year unless there is a catastrophic event coming. Let's say you start with 5k of savings. Pick 10 stocks you like, and distribute it accordingly. Watch the stocks, and re-evaluate at 1 month, 3 month, 6 months. Get rid of the losers, restack that capital onto your winners. Hold on to the stocks for more than a year so your tax rate drops to capital gains rate (20%), sell losers to reinvest to get on faster upwards moving elevators, and don't sell your winners if you can avoid it because then you have to pay taxes on your winnings. Leverage your winners to get more capital, never sell if you can avoid it.

The objective is 1) keep your money earning more money 2) leverage not more than 25%, because your margin call is at 61%, 3) do not touch your principle ever. If you need money to spend like for a house, take out a loan against the value of the investment. 4) Your cost of capital from a loan should always be much lower than your rate of return from investing.

This is nowhere near normal. How the fuck do you have a finance degree and at the same time seriously believe you can make these kinds of returns over the long term. If you actually managed to make 40% a year you would be opening up your own fund and have investors begging you to take their money. Fucking lmao. And yes we can all ignore these idiots talking about 300% a week because that only lasts for a brief window before they see -80% losses again.

I like your thread, but this statement was just extremely retarded for someone with a finance background.

You are absolutely correct, it isn't normal, it is amazing compared to big hedge funds, but I'm not investing in index funds like the big boys do, and only making 15% like the big boys do. My risk tolerance is a bit higher, and I invest in what I know. In doing tech, I know what products and vendors my employers use and can see where those are going. Let's say you were just watching Cloud industry. It has a combined annual growth rate of 40% for the last 5 years, you could blindly throw darts at cloud and be a winner. I don't have to be lucky, just a little smart and use a pilot fish strategy. I go where the winning industries are, and pick my winners based on their quarter over quarter revenue growth, returns, and financial health. My semiconductor/biotech portfolio above is a little volatile, but the winnings will be excellent and the losers i'll cut out over the next 6 months. That biotech/semiconductor portfolio alone should do 250 - 400% within a year. just go ahead and take that portfolio and create a dummy one for yourself and forget about it. Come back to it in a few months and see where it went.

My post came off a bit hostile, and I guess I was being too harsh because obviously it is possible to make higher returns in specific sectors, I just find it hard to believe that anyone would be able to pick the overperforming sectors consistently. This mentality is really hammered into my brain after I too got a finance degree.

>just go ahead and take that portfolio and create a dummy one for yourself and forget about it. Come back to it in a few months and see where it went.
I'm going to do that anon just to see how it performs. To be honest I don't know much about cloud or biotech. What about your other portfolio, are you planning to make any additions to it or are these still the top cloud companies in your opinion?

StockRover. Duplicate my above screener tab. Get familiar with it by creating screeners, filter that down to a watchlist, filter that to pick your investments, revisit those investments at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year. Try not to watch it daily if you're anxious, you'll make yourself crazy.

You'll notice one thing in common with all my picks if you put them on a graph: upward trending, relatively stable and consistent growth, and avoidant of bad histories. I don't want to invest in a stock that is at the same place it was three years ago, that is waste of capital.

>>24591871

Academia is just as jaded. If the finance professors actually knew anything about investments they wouldn't be making $100k/yr in academia, now would they? Don't let them tell you 8% is a good return and that you can't consistently out perform the market. My strategy is growth stocks with mid to high capitalization. I'm not here to invest in dividend-paying blue chips, or companies I believe in, just ones that perform reliably and to try to be a little smarter than lucky.

I pick losers too, and I miss winners. I missed Cloudflare when it first popped, but I'm sailing on that ship now. But you can always cut your losers, and restack that capital onto your winners, and then take the minor losses as a K1 to offset your taxes owed.
