Also, posts like these are normally taken by pros as a signal that the top is in.
Don't care what the pros think. I'm gambling regardless.

Also Tesla was $76/share back in March.

Even beyond hindsight, you need a combination of risk tolerance and free cash flow to plug money into these things. Those two things tend to be the biggest barriers for most people I think

And then with free cash flow, you need enough for gains to be significant. And you need to buy at a good point, sell at a good point, hodl through the tough times, etc etc etc. Everyone is a genius when the market is rallying, but short-term gains can be equally short-lived

this plus the pro have insane algoritms and inside info on what's good.

Its alot like poker every fool thinks they can play because they know the rules, but 81% of the time they are going broke against a pro.

Its ok if you want a punt but id bet on red if your looking to make a significant short term profit

I've actually had an interest in stocks back as a teen. Remember when Netflix first came out and wanted to buy shares, but didn't have a job.

Gonna grab some books and start reading. Since I'm a car guy I'll be looking into EV and Charging stations
