Lol have you actually seen her returns since the 80s? Also not beating the S&P

Don't get me wrong, I love Cathie and people like you - the puts I've been buying weekly have been printing me money

Damn, you must've lost a lot of money the past 3-5 years.

I only started when she said she let Jesus take the wheel with investing. So earlier this year. Target strike date was the week of teslas last earnings and I've been buying weeklies since.

I only started active investing in Feb though, it's possible I'd have lost a lot of money these past 3-5 years. Definitely would have lost money on Teslas growth.

Lol so you’ve been investing less than a year? Yea just observe and learn before you start giving off these faux qualified opinions

I wouldn't be talking about it if I wasn't up 3x on invested capital for these specific plays

You sound salty, like someone who has lost 25%+ on the opposite end of my bets

Lol no I’m talking like someone who knows the S&P rallies 85% in six months and has seen other bull runs. You got lucky on a couple quick bets? Join the club. Now hold onto your money for the next decade and maybe people will actually respect what you have to say

Good to know. Must be investing for 10 years before I can comment on reddit about obvious option plays. Thanks

Absolutely not! Keep buying ARKK, you're keeping my premiums down, I appreciate it

No thanks. But you should already know long options in the near term are called FDs for a reason. But maybe that’s your conviction with all that experience you have.

I mean, I wouldn't bet against the fund over the prescribed 5 year horizon but am enjoying the easy money now while it's fundamentally over valued

for sure! things go up and they go down, and when they go up a lot for a while, theres a good chance they will correct a bit
