  1. These dudes got Ted Cruz and AOC agreeing on stuff. They're fucked.
  2. @RCRanger03 and others trading those penny stocks, where are you trading them? Wells doesn't let me trade in those.
  3. Companies realizing telecommuting isn't a bad thing might be the best aftereffect of Covid. That means Austin can squeeze more Californians in next to you too!
  4. My wife told me the other day that I'm officially an old man because every time we get on I35 I complain that there shouldn't be traffic at this time of day and that I'm not used to it. Then she reminds me that 35 has had traffic 24/7 for 15 years now.
  5. We can only hope. Pay day tomorrow too. I cod see a rocket ship at open.
  6. Yep looks like I'm a proud owner of NAKD for the long haul. Wonder what the company does.

  8. I don't own any GME anymore and I made money on it, but this shit is criminal and nothing is going to happen. Just astounding. Land of the free, as long as you're rich and connected.
  9. Nobody does. But the point is that if you want something that many others want, there's always a premium on that. The expectation of staying in Austin and enjoying the benefits of a bustling growing city without paying the premium is unrealistic and full of entitlement. Not saying your son is entitled, more that Austinites feel entitled to enjoy all that Austin offers without paying for it.
  10. All of the Reddit stocks are shitting the bed today. Even gamestop is way off its high from... 7 minutes ago.
  11. Sitting at doc's office reading the Reddit threads. It's pretty mind-blowing what's going on. Not surprising at all but it's just so outwardly corrupt and shameless. Robinhood allowing you to sell GME but not buy. Apple store is deleting reviews of the Robinhood app even if they're factual. I hope that the fallout from this will open some eyes and perhaps create a small cultural shift away from worshipping and trusting big money. It probably won't, but it should.
  12. Sorry penelope I tanked your NAKD stock
  13. My fucking 70 year old dad has self diagnosed his little seasonal cold a few weeks back as Covid despite testing negative and not having any of the telltale symptoms. So now he's decided he doesn't need the vaccine. :Gun to head emoji:
  14. I'm thinking about trying to identify these reddit stocks that are getting pumped early, buying in then setting limit sells 30% above my basis. Just did it with NAKD. You guys see any others that haven't already been ridden hard (like AMC or BB)
  15. This is where we landed. We had a 4 bedroom in south Austin that we bought in 2013 for 250k. Big house, small backyard, feeds into the worst schools in Austin. Not modernized at all.. a pure 1980s builder grade house. Sold it for 500k and bought a custom home on acreage in New Braunfels. Progress and change are inevitable and that's fine. Austin isn't my Austin anymore and that's fine too. It's still a great city to be 40 minutes from. I'm happy to take our profit and move somewhere closer to the Austin i grew up in. And in 20 years if New Braunfels is overrun by Californians, we'll sell this property for a couple mill and buy a lake house further out. It's all good. Sum sum.. I agree. "I'm really mad that my house tripled in value" is silly imo.
  16. I used Wells Fargo brokerage yesterday. No issues except that they opened 37 checking accounts in my name.
  17. GME was over 400 when I left to take my son to day care and is in the 200s when I got home. Lulz.
  18. As long as 700% APR payday loans exist, you can fuck right off with "protecting people from themselves".
  19. I'll try to erase that abortion of a third quarter from my mind ASAP, but a solid win nonetheless. I was sure Rudy was going to miss one or both free throws and set up a train wreck at the end. Bottom of the net on both, good job Rudy. You're not completely useless. Keldon's dunk stopped the momentum slide. That was great.
  20. The last two pages of this thread have been some kumbayah voodoo stuff, considering the posters involved (including myself). Cheers, assholes.
  21. He's actually playing his ass off in the 4th to make us forget about it.
