  1. Got 4 gym visits in this week, so that’s good enough for me. Gym visits really make my day, im always pissed when work makes me miss one. Also lost 5 pounds over the holidays I think due to travel and just not snacking as much. I was surprised Im not trying to loose drastic weight, but do try to increase strength and mass via resistance training. I do a daily 12 hr fast (not counting morning coffee) and I seem to feel pretty good most days. Very tried for a full day fast Good luck to all of you on your quests to your best you.

    Gym Pet Peeves

    So you know the new Lulu wind shorts reboot that’s in style now. Well other day an 8+ was rocking them on deadlifts. I needed to do leg press two stations behind, sorry its leg day. Pet peave is she did only one more set. Didn’t even drop set. I mean, WTH?
  3. So I wrote covered calls today on PayPal shares. Here is my model: price today: 89.8 Date of option: 3/15/2019, 62 days from today Strike price: $95, 5.4% above today Contract price: $3.3, 3.7% of today Outcomes: either I sell the shares on March 15 for a gain of 9.1%, or I keep the 3.7% I can ponder if it was the right decision while getting 16 dances/contract.
  4. I like the game plan u outlined. I’ve done very similar strategy in the past. But I only sell the puts with money sitting ready to go...which usually means it’s pretty small potatoes as I’m mostly invested already. Covering when >70% of value is gone makes sense, unless u really want the shares bad.
  5. When you are eating BBQ chips, and halfway through the bag you’re interrupted to change a sheot diaper. Even after I wash my hands I wonder if I should lick my fingers after I finish the remainder of the bag. #parentingsux
  6. I had to do this last night. Couldn’t find them in garage. Wander to faucets and they are still laying there from last year. Score one for lazy...productivity through the roof!

    Gym Pet Peeves

    So this morning I walk up to a squat rack, adjacent another rack. No one is on the other rack ATM. I proceed to start putting one 45 per side, there are no 45s one of my rack side next to other rack. However there is one on the floor and 2 on the rack and 135 on the barbell. I proceed to pickup the one plate on the ground and a dude comes flying from 50 ft away, “Put that Back, I need that!” I ask about the other two 45 on the rack, and he’s “I Need those too”. They aren’t on the bar, just on the rack. So I point to another rack 20 ft away and i say “do u need those too?” Then I get “you don’t have to be a smart ass”. I move on and finish a whole workout and the guy is sitting there with all the weight on the squat bar just visiting he walks away, visits some more it wasn’t till after I’d showered and was leaving he moves to leg press solid hour with 8 plates just admiring he has two knee braces and squat belt too
  8. So I’ve used that strategy before in small quantities. Twice the stock was put to me, and over a multi-year period it turned out to be very profitable. That said, I felt like a real fool when it did dip below my put and was stressful. Options are great tools, but in my practice I find the volatility and challenge for optimal execution stressful. Also the premium from the options are really mice nuts in the big picture.

    I’m listening....does that make the edible more potent?
  10. Just start playing with your kid. We have a book that taught a few openings. My boy has been using them and can checkmate newbs in 4 moves. He plays in the after school chess club and wins most matches. But he is a sore ass loser when I beat him.
  11. So for those sitting on the sidelines, what are u looking for to put cash back to work? i have sub 10% cash, but looking at TSLA, PayPal, or an index fund when I get around to putting the cash to work. My main issue when investing: I’m chicken shit to buy on the dips, rather I panic buy on the way up. Curious what others use to help find that investible “bottom”.
