Yeah, the debt sucks. It is what it is it was about my only option to becoming a dentist. My parents couldn't foot that bill and frankly, I didn't expect them to. I had a golf Scholie for undergrad and with academic stuff, that got me thru undergrad. We really lucked out in that my wife got into her business at the right time and is doing well, so I'm throwing as much $ at debt as I can. I figure I can be debt free by 35ish, no student loan and no practice debt. If I can do that, I'll flip all that to my retirement and kids stuff. Or atleast that's the plan |

Today it closed at 28.43. Wish I would have followed my advice and bought option contracts of it a long time ago. Could have retired! I kid. Maybe take a damn nice trip. On another note, as far as buying MJ stocks that are cheap, I like CNAB the best. I don't have much money in them and wouldn't advise to buy a bunch either. I just like what I see from them at this point. |

If I didn't spend $500,000-600,000 eating and drinking these past 20-25 years I would be retired If I shorted the market the day before 1987 Black Monday I would be rich If I bought Microsoft or Apple when they first came out I would be rich If I exercised more I wouldn't be fat You said you play craps.....I guess that gambling is ok but mine is not. My 401K did very well and so did some of my other stocks. By the way, I made another nearly $4,000 the last two days in BABA options, both CALLS and PUTS. |

I am sure I am the only numb nuts that does this. I got a car loan with zero interest because I got good credit. I pay 2 dollars every month when I pay online for a convince fee. So what's the point of zero interest if you still pay money. I finally just got in the habit of mailing in a check to avoid the fee.

I don't get the max out 401k Roth or Roth IRA. Also money is about feeling good or secure. If you can find a reason to not shoot yourself by Gambling in the market go for it. Not everyone finds boring investing interesting. I gamble at the boat but want something stable to retire on.

For anyone else reading this who has "learned" from this guy, he is not someone you want to learn from. If a significant part of your knowledge about options trading comes from a guy on a football message board, you should not be doing options trading. It is a bad idea. |

I've spent years as a broker in a prior life. I talk all the time about risk, risk, and risk. Not for the average or unsophisticated investor. I haven't even gotten into covered call writing or naked put selling, which is a whole other level of crazy that I don't participate in. I link to the CBOE and other investor based explanations on options. I explain some basics Show me one time I gave false information about options? You can't! You have a deeper issue going on...... Maybe you lost money on options and are bitter? Maybe you invested in penny stocks from a newsletter and cost you money? Maybe you are reformed gambler? Something more is going on with you....... ![]() Last edited by scho63; 03-26-2017 at 09:58 AM.. |

![]() So playing craps is the good money management skills you speak off? I'm not risking my rent or car payment money. I'm enjoying 6-9 months off in the sunshine in Scottsdale AZ without working a single day at 54 years old so I think I've done a few things right. But that's OK, I'm sure you are the money manager to the stars in Hollywood. |

Blockchain. Blockchain is a technological breakthrough that even the programmers are still learning new use cases for on a daily basis.
You see execs from Goldman, JP Morgan, Merrill, Microsoft, etc. (and the government), leaving lucrative careers to run start ups or invest in blockchain. It's projected that the blockchain will make 30-60% of ALL global jobs redundant and unnecessary. Invest now. Blockchain will be bigger than the internet. Already valued in tens of billions, it will soon be measured in the trillions. Top Blockchain Growth opportunities: Ethereum (smart contracts, the Ethereum Enterprise Alliance is composed of Microsoft, JP Morgan, BNY Melon, Santander, Intel, etc) up 700% this year PIVX (HUUUUUGE growth potential) up 650 in a WEEK NEM (south east Asia's ethereum) up 400% so far this year BitBay (homerun potential but could also strike out) up 330% this year Ark is a small market cap play that's brand new that could really explode too Obviously Bitcoin is the most reknowned/widespread blockchain, but it's currently undergoing a big scalability civil war between it's bitcoin core and bitcoin unlimited dev teams. Learn about it, get involved, make smart decisions and you WILL be rich. Soon. |

Still can't post links but add the youtube prefix and this heavenly blessed beauty Jewess (also an MSc from Oxford and runs a Silicon Valley think-tank and VC firm) will explain the blockchain:

Anyone know much about Pure Energy Minerals (PEMIF)? I read about an agreement with Tesla awhile ago for sourcing lithium. I honestly can't find a good source that this deal is even true. I can't find how much Tesla uses this company's source and why exactly this stock has been almost cut in half in the past year? Seems a bit risky but also possibly a good time to buy. I just can't locate much information outside of a few articles spaced out over a few years. Is this just another penny stock?
