The mistake I made was getting out of AMZN years ago for a slight profit. Live and learn. Or, die poor and stupid (/unlucky?)

That's nothing bro. When I was in college I bought several k worth of AAPL shares for 15 bucks and sold at 18 thinking "No one is going to buy these dumbass iPods"

I felt like Warren Buffet when I bought J Crew shares early and sold them ~2010. I bought a bespoke suit with my proceeds.

Well, my 403(b) rollover has hit my personal rollover IRA. I just sank the entire amount into another intermediate term investment grade bond fund. I used Fidelity's equivalent of the Vanguard I used to hold as our personal stuff is with Fidelity. My deferred comp account is now drained and I apparently have a manual payroll cheque in the mail. Imma not sleep right until it arrives as I can't imagine the PITA if that puppy got lost in the mail.

You think bonds are cuck? My deferred comp cheque was in today's mail ( ? ) and my first move is to pay off my 3.3% mortgage!

I put the rate in there just to signal you can't cuck the Piob. Don't hate because I'm beautiful.

You should buy some options on margin, that's how you make mad cheddar.

The only way Pio can recover from cuck status is to post a picture of his account balance.
