  If it were 10k it would have been a genius buy though!

    No, it wouldn’t. 2k would have been. Buying at the all time peak is ALWAY a stupid buy, idc if it does take off after.

    Like playing the slot machines hoping for a jackpot.

      If you bought NVIDIA at $43/share on September 1, 2023 you were an absolute dipshit.

      If you bought Palantir at $35/share on January 29, 2021 you were a total moron.

      Meanwhile, Bear Stearns at $60 in March of 2008? A fucking steal. Buy! Buy! Buy!

      I always read the prospectus on a slot machine before I put money in.

        I’m curious as to how much casino’s rig their shit.

        MIL is a gambler, a bad one too. I don’t think numbers will help her, but my wife could use them to try to dissuade her mother. At least, deter. Damage control.

        Do you have any documentation?
