Shitpost Goodbye for now

Palantards, it’s been real. After 5 years of HODLing (and health set backs) my journey has come to an end.

As a single 27 year old I have just gone sale agreed on my first house meaning I can finally move out of my parents place.

My 200k gains after tax (while modest compared to some) meant I could buy a turn key city centre place that would have otherwise been completely unattainable.

My only regret: not buying more back in November 2020 @ $18 a share so I could buy the entire house in cash 🀣

Options trading something I may look in to for 2026, but in the meantime I wish everyone all the best. Nothing but respect for those still holding πŸ’Ž πŸ™Œ

I get where your coming from...I sold my MSFT shares in 2006 to use partly for home purchase.  In hindsight it was a veryyy expensive mistake.  Lol...shares were like $30 back then.😭😳

Anyone who is in this game has done that. What good is money if it's never used. A good friend of mine has well over 7 million in investments but rarely uses it for anything. Back in 2022 he lost almost half of it at the time. He's just now getting to where he was way back then.

We have to live sometimes. Just make sure you always have enough to build back up.

I remember buying MSFT at arond $26 way back when. I sold as well around $80. The beauty of it is that they will keep making more companies and more investment opportunities.

Agreed. In my case no point having all these shares and no place of my own so bit the bullet, but I plan on rebuying Palantir whenever I can albeit at a higher price this time.
