"Mom, how did we get so rich?" "Your dad managed billions of dollars in a hedge fund and collected management fees" "But did the investors outperform the index?" "Who the fuck cares?"

@sheentrades Silent retweet

Too many people: “Once you start a fund, I’ll invest” “What’s your minimum?” “$500k” “Oh that’s not a problem” *knock knock* “We’re approved and ready to take wires/investments brotha” “Sorry man I can’t put $500k into that right now” Never had it to begin with huh…

@Jason______A I know a guy

Recently got sent an investor deck in a niche I’m also involved in. They’re raising $2M on a $10M cap with barely any revenue… and I’d bet that round fills fast. It’s a SAFE too which is laughable. Meanwhile I’ve had people trying to invest in my stuff for 10+ years and I’ve always said no. I never wanted a boss. Or even worse… feeling like I owe someone a phone call. I’d actually rather be homeless than have to speak to someone on the phone. I even thought about starting a car investment fund years ago. In this market it probably would’ve printed 3–5x. I have a slight regret for not doing it. But the negative thought of someone wiring me money and then calling me for an update? Yeah… no thanks. For the guys who have raised… How bad is it actually dealing with investors? Be honest. PS: I invest all the time. If it works, I’m not calling you. 
If it goes to $0, I’m still not calling you. I underwrite everything to zero. I know most people aren’t built like that though. 
Which is exactly why I’m hesitant to take their money.

'statistical arbitrage' seems sus to me, putting blind faith into maths eg if you have only ever wanked yourself off that means 'statistically' you have enjoyed 100% of the dicks you have played with which makes you statistically gay not into that shit so count me out fam

@BuildwithPublic Question for your DM

Here's the prompt: Before entering any options trade, run this liquidity test. No exceptions - if a strike fails any one of these three checks, skip it. Ticker: [specify] | Expiration: [specify] | Strikes: [specify] For each strike, check: 1. Open interest > 500 2. Bid-ask spread < $0.20 3. Daily volume > 100 ALL THREE must pass for a "Go" verdict. - If target fails, scan 2 strikes above/below on same expiration. - If no nearby strikes pass, check next weekly expiration. - Also show: spread as % of mid price, volume-to-OI ratio. Slippage on entry is a guaranteed loss. Premium collected means nothing if you gave half of it back on the spread.

Slippage is a silent killer. Before I enter any options trade, I check 3 things: -Open interest > 500 -Bid-ask spread < $0.20 -Volume > 100 Fail any one? I don't trade it. I built this as an automated gate on the @public API. It runs before every single order. If my target strike fails, it scans 2 strikes above and below. If nothing works, it checks the next weekly.
