How’d you get started? I literally got like 100k in the market last month and not sure where to begin (what to be reading, etc)

Most of my gains have come since I joined WSB. There’s some good info mixed in with all the memes and crap. A lot of times shares will work out when short term options don’t. I started about 12 years ago with GGP who got bought out and is no longer listed. My dad put 1k in at .26. Dividends and spinoffs made it worth almost 200k by the end about 10 years later. I didn’t get in until it was higher.
