having family that lives in Austria.

$50K usd would not be enough. thats around $40K euros


you would be renting at best. Vienna is expensive.

maybe living outside Vienna possible.

Edit didn’t answer the question fully. I’m not totally sure about how much is needed, but we could probably get by on $50k usd annually and being frugal. But this doesn’t leave much room for us to pursue starting something up.
Intredasting. So basically retirement with some income generated from your passions and/or passive income. Only question now is, how old are you?

I thought about retiring in 40s (I'm 32 now, not even married yet) but I think I'd get bored with nothing to work towards. Would be better to have some kind of business going like you though.

Salzburg is actually the dream. But I think I’d have better success in a BJJ gym in a bigger city. And yeah my guesstimate was based on renting since there isn’t chit for real estate websites to scope places for sale lol. But also that was purely passive income. Is your family from there or transplants?

Kind of. Passive income just to allow us both to be able to live and pursue passion projects. The stuff we love is hard to make money with right off the bat. So we need padding to get us to that point.

We’re both FAR from retirement age (I’m late 30’s and she’s 9 years younger)but that’s why I want to do it now. I don’t want to be an old fukk moving to another country and not being able to fully enjoy it like I could now or even in my 40’s. I’m kind of in the same boat as you in that I’m just not thrilled with my career. Look, it’s been great to me, but also taken me down some very toxic avenues, but my current gig is all things considered pretty fukkin great. My company loves me and my clients adore me. I can write my own story from here on out. But I don’t see myself doing this for the rest of my working life. I’m good at what I do, really good, but it’s not fun or rewarding.

And yeah the thought of retirement and not doing anything sounds awful. That’s why you need a passion project! For me it’s Jiu jitsu

I went down a deep existential spiral and realized we can’t waste our years working to live. We should be living to work. And for that to happen, your work needs to be something you love. This ain’t it lol

Yea it's pretty rare for someone to wake up genuinely excited to go to work.. in most cases there's no.. deeper meaning if that makes sense. I found it more in the camaraderie with my coworkers and the ownership of running my own client. It's a chill job but the amount of times I feel like rage quitting or just don't even feel like working makes it a burden despite the income.

If I could manage to save a million on my own between cash/retirement by early 40s, and upwards of two million with a spouse.. would be enough to start something abroad IMO. With investing/real estate on the side, shouldn't be impossible.

I'm jelly of how you managed to marry someone 9 years younger. You definitely lucked out doing that before social media became a big thing I'm guessing lol. It's like finding a needle in a haystack now

Anyone playing AMD earnings? Feel like the MMs were purposely crushing tech stocks for lower premiums and getting retail to panic sell only to scoop them back up. Down on infrastructure plays, but I bought them a year out.

Nah they are from there.

Everything in terms of price expect rent is okay. Food, internet etc. Hop in car drive 2-3 hours you in different country. Plus view is surreal, hiking, skiing. If you're talking Salzburg it would be liking living close to Rockies. Incredible views of Alps.

But rent is hella expensive in Vienna. Tiny 2 bedroom 900 square feet apartment rent with utilities is around $3K euros.

I am. $100 strike 2/19 probably 5-10 contracts. (Tbh AMD will probably need to hit big earnings to justify this market cap. pe is like 115ish.)

There is nice volume on 1/29 100$ strike.

Also gonna go for the double hit casino play.

Buying Intel puts expiring this Friday.

$55p are super cheap.

literally first apartment i've found - 850 €

if you filter "up to 1500€ a month" you will find 6355 resultsout of 7739 total within vienna

https://www.immowelt.at/expose/2yrrx43

^ 10 minute walk from the inner city, brand new built (you will be the 1st person living there) and that for 1200€ / month - less than half of what you claimed
those look poverty as phuck.

maybe prices dropped due to covid.

Intel hiring new CEO and saying they could look into outsourcing chips still won't be able to mask that sales are down.

Zen 3 kills Intel chips.

I guess investors could go on frenzy if new CEO says we are outsourcing to TSM or someone else for next chip.


its 50/50 toss up but considering $55P is 0.3 buying few contracts is not big deal small play.

Lol all non staged units look “poverty”
Those units look pretty nice. That said, I’m coming from LA and two of my last 3 places have been brand new Luxury high rises and the other was a refurbished historical high rise in downtown LA. Chits just different.

I had under a thousand shares.. 40 cent yearly dividend isn't worth it to me. Dumped my shares and put a stop buy limit order at mid $11s in case it bounces back. Just lost $1000 or so, not a big deal. It already dipped in the $10s.. lmao fuk that

ok guys what are your thoughts on this:

I really like PLTR long term, thinking about loading up and then selling the Jan 2022 $50 calls, currently $4.55. Lots of room on the upside and a really nice premium. Been trading options small and will continue to but I have $250k to invest right now.

Really depends on your account and trading levels, but I would hate to have that money tied up for a year, unless you legit just feel like making this one play and not checking it at all, and not making any moves or even thinking about any moves for at least 8-10 months...

I know I shared a similar pic about 2 months ago, but I want to share my 30 day snap shot for people who are considering options (sell, writing, both, etc). See that dip? That was on a day when y'all were celebrating a massive green day. I was down $27k in one.fukking.day. OFC this can cause serious panic and probably get a lot of people to sell. I don't want to say diamond hands are the way, but if you're selling options 9/10 diamond hands are a must.
