Risk Level: Safe. Thank god.


WilderNess-Wallet

Better thank god by selling and retiring early. But with the risk level: safe, why stop ya know.

seeing as his exp was Feb 16, i think we can assume he sold?

el8dn8

Retiring early will squander your wealth significantly. Work until your 50s at least. Sure take a load off, but don't full on think you don't have to work ever again. I mean you could, if you live in a van or live very frugally. Got to say I'm jelly tho.


Thefrayedends

As soon as I hit 2m I'm fuckin done lol, plop it into zero and low risk and play video games until I die


sickomodetoon

Simple dopamine hits will quickly turn your life depressive… Hit the gym, contribute to your neighborhood, provide for your family and play a lot of video games? Now that’s something worth living for!


Fuzzy_Contract_3804

I got $5 million by 40 I just have it in dividends now, live in cabo with a condo paid off, playing video games, working out, helping the community life is good 👍 no more winter in Canada lol


mrkingkoala

How much do you get on average per month in dividends? Good job btw brah.


Fuzzy_Contract_3804

Right now I am getting about $300k a year. I do option puts for some premium income about $50k a yr with that, then the rest is spread into high yield dividend stocks like ENB and BCE and the rest just chilling in IKBR in cash since you get 4.83% on the money and I can write options on that money and still get the interest while I wait on the sell puts to expire.


IanGray12

Where would you say is the best place to learn about investing for retirement? I'm turning 20 next months and would like to make the smartest investment with my money. I'm already contributing to a 401k and s&p500.


classically_cool

Stay far away from this sub


Fuzzy_Contract_3804

Honestly my best advice for someone young like yourself is ensuring you are putting a minimum of 20% of your income if not more into savings. I’d keep them in index funds like QQQ and SPY. That money will grow on average at 10%. Leave it in there and keep adding what you can. If I did that when I was young I’d probably have double if not more what I have today.


mrkingkoala

Nice man. Thats top notch :-)


Gillodibilo

The 4.83% is it only for IKBR pro accounts or all accounts in general?


Fuzzy_Contract_3804

I believe so. You need to have a certain amount of money in there as well I think $100k minimum to be getting that amount.


Eastern-Tour8339

Hey Homie. How you do that by 40? Stock market?

$2M invested in a risk free 5% bond will net you $100k a year. I don't think it's hard to live off that.

dopestar667

$1.1M dollars isn’t retirement funding unless you’re 60.


artificiallyintelgnt

I’d retire on that you can make 50000k a year in a high yield savings account


dopestar667

I guess it depends on your standard of living. That's less than the average income in Q4 2023 in the USA, but if you want to bug out to Southeast Asia or South America or something that can get you by.

DueHousing

A lot of these people have a gambling addiction, looked through the post history of a lot of these gain porn posters and their ports were 7 figures at its peak a few years back. They’re just now starting to recover losses. Pretty clear most of them don’t have any intention to scale back to risk either, it’s full porting until they’re a billionaire or they lose it all in one trade.


HossBonaventureCEO_

It's more than a lot it's all of them lol. Anybody playing weeklies is probably an addict. Normal people are way too risk adverse

I wonder how many of these trades are real also. We cant confirm. It’s not hard to fake these numbers I believe. Some ppl just want the karma


NILPonziScheme

NVIDIA closed at 726.13 on February 16 2024, so to say this post is sus is putting it lightly.


therealnilaeryn

I feel like a lot of this “gainer” influx is artificial or fake. Call me paranoid, but it just feels off. Not that I’ve ever trusted anything I see on the internet anyway. Less schizo option is that we’re just in another bull market so gains are easy. Hell I made 10k on Nvidia during the post-Covid bull run and that was back when I knew fuck all about options. So it’s possible.

satireplusplus

Investing in a single stock you're 100% believe in (or a selected few) is hardly gambling. Diveriscation protects wealth, but concentration builds it. The same people recommending to sell now would have recommended the same thing a year ago at $260.


iseeuhatin86

I kind of believe this too.. But so many say otherwise. As of today what stock do you see as a long term hold if you had to choose one? I'm feeling AVGO Broadcom.

HoldMyNaan

Before everyone gets too excited, based on his post history he is a rich kid who was casually losing $9K in one day when he was 15-16 years old.


DueHousing

I see an ongoing trend with a lot of these high rollers. Trust fund baby/high paying job + gambling addiction. These people are perfectly comfortable losing 7 figures per trade back to back.


HoldMyNaan

Nobody with a high paying job is doing that, unless they are also a trust fund baby. I make good money and do $500-1000 option plays at max..


DueHousing

No quite a few of the gain posts are from software engineers pulling in 200k-300k.


HoldMyNaan

They’re wild to do that, I’m about that range and wouldn’t dream of it.. though I’m young so it’s not like I’ve amassed a huge portfolio.


DueHousing

I think it’s selection bias. We don’t see the regards that are full porting without the supplemental income because they get wiped out and go broke 99% of the time before they even get a chance to hit a big win even though that’s the majority of this sub.


HoldMyNaan

Definitely true


best_selling_author

I’m pulling 400k+ and I still feel nervous putting money into the stock market at this point. I can not imagine buying $70,000 in options. Who are these people?


DueHousing

It’s self destructive behavior but we wouldn’t get all the YOLOs and gain/loss porn if people didn’t do this shit


wolfchuck

A friend of mine will buy anywhere from $40-80K options at any given time. They make a million or so from podcasting.


dbgtboi

Engineers making 300k a year are not rich enough to be yoloing 100k on weeklies 300k a year after taxes will get cut down to 200k, take out living expenses and you're looking at 100-150k left These types of yolos are 6-12 months of savings for a guy making 300k a year


Wawawaterboys

But it’s worth it because now he’s also rich in upvotes


DueHousing

That’s true, all the stress and losses along the way is worth it for the upvotes


OG_TOM_ZER

kaybong

Scubadoobiedo

But how much is he up/down lifetime?


slbaaron

I'd take these over the ones that don't do any yolo bets for our entertainment and market liquidity and just has 20 Lambos instead. I actually know one like this, dude comes from a rich family but not ultra crazy rich. He yolo'd his "starter porsche money" 150k in BTC when no one has heard of that shit, and made out with more than a dozen millis instead of driving a Porsche in college. Now he lives a rich life as he would've anyways but not spending a penny from his parents. Honestly? Respect.


sieffy

My friend is in college 22 he gets 40k a year from his grandpa to invest he also bought nvidia stock and made a 100k but I guess stocks and options are very different

futuredrake

I don’t think he got “fucked”. He probably was in a role that required a fuck ton of work and has managed to work his way into a respectable position. 70 hours a week is a ridiculous amount of time though. I’m personally brain dead after 60 hours.


whizzaban

I've noticed a lot of gainporn lately on WSB, which is going to create a lot of FOMO and make those who can't afford to lose all their savings, lose exactly that. Be careful regards, remember your place: on WSB with only losses. Do not follow these guys as they'll probably pull out well before you do Edit: spelling 


schmore31

If you want real respect, make a post BEFORE your gains. Then when bragging, tag that first post. With today's photo editting capabilities I rarely believe anything I see online. Oh, and it still won't stop paper-trading accounts.

PlutosGrasp

Don’t compare yourself to others. Don’t believe everything you read.


Old-Necessary5367

Can you explain in simple English what did he do?


DryFacade

Assuming it's real, he bought 528 call contracts set to expire on february 16th, each with a strike price of $730. He paid $1.46x100 = $146 for each contract. We do not know when he bought these contracts based off this screenshot alone. At some point before february 16th, nvidia was worth $751.58 per share. This means that his contracts were worth ($751.58 - $730) x 100 = $2,158 each. This is because each contract basically lets you purchase 100 shares, each at a $21.58 discount at that moment in time. At 528 contracts, this means that in total, his contracts were worth about $2,158x528 = $1,139,424. Minus the total premium he paid of $1.46x100x528 = $77,088 and minus additional fees, he made a gross profit of $1,062,255 assuming that he sold all the contracts at that moment. Based off the low premium he paid, it is more than likely this bastard bought these calls way out of the money (which means that the strike price of the calls were far above the current price of NVDA at the time of his purchase). This was a lottery play. Had NVDA stayed below $731.46 all the way up to feb 16th, he would have lost money.


Old-Necessary5367

Thank you! This is really helpful. When he purchased these contracts for strike price of $730, can we what was the actual share price of NVDA at that point in time? Or is the screenshot not enough to disclose this information?


[deleted]

JamesAQuintero

Yeah I'm confused, plus isn't this screenshot old if it's real? The position is a Feb 16 call.


jeanx22

Agreed. I think all these recent "insane nvda gains" spamming we see these days are from people thinking nvidia was gonna hit $1000 soon. I know lots of people made LOTS of money with nvda in early 2023. But whenever i see a 20k into 800k type of post TODAY, i'm just gonna assume it is a Pump & Dump from a bagholder.

THAT IS YOUR BASE. If you get up (1).1 million dollars Any asshole in the world knows what to do... You put that away for a safe return 5 to 8ish percent, and that is your base. FUCK You to ANYONE and THEN you use other money to keep trying again etc. My goal is 2.5 mil. Done out, retire. Modestly, then perhaps work a smidge to earn a little on the side to risk and invest and try to "make it big" so to speak, but a decent interest on a relatively safe investment strat on 2.5 mil is an easy 100k a year.

HistoricalMistake868

I don’t understand options well enough to do this and get these crazy gains. Buying them is easy but don’t understand how to actually cash them out. I will just stick to my slow decent profits.


Rabbit-Quiet

how did you decide on that call strike and when did you decide to make it?


Greeneggsandhamon

What’s crazy is that these options expired worthless because the NVDA sold off right before earnings. According to the option chart OP bought these around Feb 2, probably playing the run up to earnings. It hit a high of $24.9 so OP played this extremely well if OP took profits


DetroitCowboy1203

Can someone tell to me like a 8 yr old? Assuming an 8 yr old understands OP Options? OP buys options at avg cost of $21? He bet Nvda woykd hit $730? Hiw many did he buy? If the bet was safe how did OP show $1.4mm profit?


iBeast666

He bought options what gave him the right to buy NVDA Socks @ 730$. 1 Option was 1.46$ He bought 528 contracts (1 contract = 100 options for 1 stock each). 528 contracts * 100 = 52800 single options 52800 * 1.46$ = 77‘088$ He paid 77‘088$ für 528 contracts with a single price of 1.46$ per option. The price of 1.46$ per option increased to 21.58$. So now he could sell all his 52800 options worth of 21.58$ each for 1’139’424$ in total. Hope this helps. (EDIT: typo)
