  1. Putting money into things you believe in isn't investing, it's charity. You don't have to go full Duke Bros., you just have to have an enlightened self-interest and an understanding of how money makes money.
  2. I'm reposting this from the Shart thread. Don't care.
  3. stole that from a Fella on Threads... told him I would, too don't forget the "industrial strength" part
  4. 91-time criminally indicted flatulent narcoleptic seditious bankrupt immoral rapist, industrial strength vaginal dehumidifier, and former president, Donald J. Trump.
  5. That's the only purpose for any and all investing. Why do you say that like it's a bad thing?
  6. Did you... just... watermark someone else's gif of copyrighted content with your own username?
  7. Appropriate to quote a song by Glenn Fry. (stfu, spell-check, I know what I'm doing)
  8. Yeah uhm count me in on team "They won't actually do anything about it." More like that, fewer actual martyrs, please.
  9. I was thinking more like or even but really:
  10. Well. Yeah. Not on the Brown Album.
  11. Same. All y'all bitches need to go watch The Big Short and Trading Places. Get yourselves educated. Now.
  12. I don't even like how that's being reported. He should be referred to as "the troubled former president" at the very minimum.
  13. I mean, I get that. I didn't even get into Priest until a decade or two ago. Been playing catch-up ever since.
  14. Which gets him jeered at his own tour stops. Like Primus playing any song off the Brown Album. (tho "Bob's Party Time" still rocks tbh)
  15. ... you kidding? You never even made it to Painkiller? Oh my brother in Christ, you need to hop aboard the post-Turbo train (it's ok if you skip the Tim Owens stuff; nobody will judge you). You are about to have your mind blown. Bands this old just do not rock this hard
  16. You are held to the promise to buy it back, is the key. You are contractually bound to the shares you sold, just as if you'd owned them in the first place.
  17. The Dukes ended up penniless before they left the trading floor. Their guy on the floor was buying up until the end, but they didn't have the cash to cover what they'd purchased, so all of their assets were seized. The exchange leadership went Laetitia James on 'em.
  18. I mean, the movie doesn't say one way or the other how much of the OJ market they end up with. BUT: It does say that the Dukes are aiming to corner the market, and yet W&V were selling (at the start of trading) so many shares that, despite the Dukes and everyone else buying, the price actually started to fall before the real crop report was read. Which means W&V were selling, and later covering, a fuckton of shares. It's implied that they ended up with a substantial portion of the market when they covered.
  19. And this is the weakest of the many cases he faces. It only gets worse for him from here on out.
