Many saw it

But many other investors (biz starters/owners) can’t withstand the time/$/patience l it takes to win in this market. It’s a slow burn IMO with few rich quick options-which makes many investors shy away

Like anything else that’s worth it, it takes time. Get rich quick options are either extremely risky or a fraudulent. You invested in Tesla last year, It is now worth almost 8 x’s that amount. That’s a damn good return. This is an investment not a get rich scheme.

But people don’t recognize investment opportunities. All these college students who wait in a line at Chipotle. Damn it’s really popular. Hmm. Maybe it’s a good idea to invest in it. In 2017, Chipotle fell to under $300 a share. Up until 2019 it was sub $500 It’s now $1400 a share. There are opportunities all over the place.

Your first sentence is not accurate if, when you say “worth it”, you also mean making $$. Agree with everything else you say.

Looks like the major car companies still have a ways to go to compete with Tesla. The Mustang is being compared to the low end Teslas and I would still rather have a low end Tesla. Question, why would anyone buy a crossover that is only rear wheel drive? Marketing ploy that you can suck people in at that $35k price as opposed to Tesla’s?

Anyone here in Crpto at all?

Obviously wish I was in way earlier but the timing wasn't right for me to take on the risk. Started to move some money there a couple months ago, not a huge amount or anything.. just enough to care that it is there but wouldn't kill me if it collapses as I learn more. Bit of a rabbit hole though.

I invest in crypto using the greyscale funds and also in coin base. The crypto funds are not for everyone, tricky business that requires a lot of attention.

Been following a penny stock developing an alternative energy storage systems. They are making golf carts with solar roofs, perfect for sunny locations. They also plug in for charging.

Triad Pro Innovators, Inc. has developed a proprietary device to be utilized in a variety of circumstances to store electricity .The newly developed Triad Pro power supply provides our storage system with tremendous operational flexibility. Using our propriety hardware and software solution, our eCell can be configured to store energy at a rate limited only by the network providing it, and then release that energy in a regulated way based upon the application, which allows for flexibility unknown in current chemical battery-based storage systems. Triad Pro creates and designs renewable energy solutions including Co-Generation and the Rapid-K Power Cells that can be used stand alone or modular as energy demands increase.

I am assuming that you are young somewhere in your 20's. This type of thinking was quite prevalent during my father's generation. I can tell you that it is wrong and it's the remnants of the thinking and feelings people had going through the Great Depression.

SHU09 advice is excellent in investing in an S&P 500 Fund. I think historically it has resulted in 9% gains. But, there are obviously individual stocks that are fantastic to invest in. Apple, Amazon, Google. These three behemoths keep going and going. Do you see any of these three companies going anywhere?
I am not a believer of day trading. That is how to get into trouble. But buying very solid companies and holding it will get you to where you want to be.

Well maybe amazon might be going somewhere.... bezos just jumped

Did Apple go anywhere after Steve Jobs? Jobs was more intimately linked to the success of Apple than Bezos.
Tim Cook has made Apple even bigger and better than when Jobs was there. I am sure Bezos picked the right guy to lead Amazon.

lol Amazon isn't going anywhere. Will continue to dominate.

Amazon workers will eventually unionize. They should and this will be Amazon’s biggest problem. But this is necessary. The market won’t collapse. It may pull back for a correction of 10%. But it will not collapse. I’m not seeking any of my Amazon. So I am putting my Nj ey where my mouth is on this.

If JBezos was more concerned about his money, he would’ve had a better prenup agreement. He has more money than he will ever need and this is typical transition plan stuff.

Dodge has a niche. While I do believe electric vehicles and the performance that goes along with it on the high end will eventually be king, Dodge still has that musclecar following. If Jeep had an option for a 3rd row, I would have considered a Grand Cherokee but would likely give up cargo room. For a little while, I still wanna burn fuel. Hell, have the solar panels for my carbon offset.

I could comfortably throw 4 guys and 4 sets of clubs in my truck and probably still pull a sub 5s 0-60 with the additional weight.

I know I'm a bit late to the thread so sorry if this has been mentioned, but Jeep recently announced a 3rd row Grand Cherokee model that'll be avaible this year

Assuming the won’t extend the overall vehicle, that will be purely for seating and will completely crush storage with the 3rd row up. Durango is longer. But it’s definitely a nice to have option.

Well, I don't know too many high-quality cars made by Americans. Unfortunately, this is the truth. Of course, there are some cool cars made by Cadillac, Lincoln, or Tesla but those cars are not even close to European cars quality, just look at Fiat, Citroen, and other budget cars, they are made better than Escalades. I don't want to talk even about BMW, Audi, and all those premium European brands, which are ten times better than any other car you know. Visit https://weightle.com/ and compare those cars by yourself.

A pickup Ford seems like a good choice.

no reason to get a sedan. just get a hatchback or crossover. old school trunks make little sense
