@PaulSkallas You can get a house for 20k there.

highest homeownership rate in the country. 80% of people in the state own their homes. 60% of them without mortgages. It resembles a southern european country in some ways. Inexpensive. mountainous terrain, shrinking population, hard for outsiders to integrate into the society. Tight knit clans.

@Newman81Street @Average_NY_Guy It's not going to end with Kharg Island, dumbass.

@Average_NY_Guy Kharg Island is not Gaza with all those tunnels. It's not densely populated like Gaza. Different situation.

No, it won’t take “weeks.” I’m saying this as someone who supports the war, but I’m very worried that a ground invasion in Iran would go very badly. It took about 2 years for the IDF to control large parts of Gaza, which is only 141 square miles, and even then they didn’t fully achieve all their goals. Now compare that to Iran, a country of over 600,000 square miles with hundreds of thousands of active troops and the ability to mobilize well over a million with reserves and paramilitary forces. This would take years, and I’m not in favor of that.

@Average_NY_Guy Wait until we start getting Ukraine-style FPV drone footage of American troops getting blown up.

@SayNoToTrading I hope you don't. I find your posts extremely helpful. I agree, many accounts don't even seem like real people, just those trying to craft an image. Glad to see you still buying RKLB!

What would you rather buy: 500 of $AMZN at $191 500 of $RKLB at $60 I say both. In all seriousness, this brings up an important issue which is irritating me more and more the longer I'm on X. In the short ~1 year of being on here, I've seen the focus of the fintwit community go from just that - a community - to a place where once accounts reach a certain size, they are just trying to sell subscriptions. Then, their public facing persona is carefully crafted. No longer do they share what they are buying or selling in real time like this. Instead, rather cagey and useless posts just teasing a subscription. They say things like what they bought/sold 3 months later (e.g. someone saying they sold $HOOD in January) and they only publish that now, after stock is cut in half. How useful is that? It isn't. It's a total waste of time as you scroll your feed. They either don't have the balls to tell you what they're doing in real time, because they're afraid of being publicly wrong, or they are thinking first and foremost on selling subs and crafting the right perception for that. Speaking of being publicly wrong, if you are selling a sub and too sissy to post your pic, general vicinity of where you live, or any other vague details about who you are, what makes you think people should trust you with their money? You can't compare it to bonafide but faceless financial research firms. Even they have an LLC, C-Corp, or similar. They are not anonymous, if you really dig. I do believe that if you take money from someone, you will act differently (and more respectfully) if in the back of your mind, even subconsciously, you know someone can find you if they try. You will think a bit differently in that financial advice you give. You will be even more careful with it, knowing that, bad advice can come back and haunt you. Oh and don't kid yourself and say it's not financial advice you're selling. You're not running an OnlyFans here. Hell, you won't even show your face, so what else are people paying you for?! That too brings up major legal issues which I won't get into for now. Though I will briefly say, having extensive experience with FTC last decade from my own businesses, just putting up some generic "not financial advice" tagline doesn't indemnify you, if you are taking money in return. You are totally naive if you think that's how the law works. A post by @Invesquotes a day ago said: "Honestly pretty crazy how many large accounts that patronize other investors here end up deleting posts when proven wrong Absolutely crazy." I replied: "Can you post examples? I know this is big problem and plenty of people on here document, so the proof is out there, but for those of us who don’t track this stuff, we are clueless as to who is and isn’t doing it. I’d like to know who to ignore/unfollow/mute." He did not feel comfortable sharing who and in my opinion, that too is a problem. Why the hell protect people just because they are big and popular accounts? Call them out dammit!!! A Canadian investor I follow on here, I saw a day or two ago they are largely going to stop posting on X because they are no longer getting much value on here. I agree. There are tons of amazing people on here, but the vast majority of them I find are those who have nothing to sell and in turn, have honest intentions of trying to invest better and share what they're doing and thinking. Life is reciprocal. If you are getting value from others, you have an obligation to share with them in return. That's how it works. I am feeling less compelled to go out of my way to post what I'm doing, because hardly anyone else does the same in return, yet they follow me. I deactivated all other social media in 2022. I can't even view Instagram or TikTok because it requires app and/or login to see a post. So I'm now 4 years on that. Have no clue what their current interfaces even look like. Don't be surprised if I just disappear from here one day, because I get totally fed up with what this place has turned into now that X subs are so prevalent. That's not friendship, that's a marketplace, especially when the other side (me) doesn't charge you for anything.

@nanobii AI music is all slop though

ngl i'm having such an existential crisis with AI music taking over. my whole life's been dedicated to making music in my bedroom and improving and now anybody can just prompt something decent sounding in 10 seconds and i'm questioning everything

@MattWalshBlog You forgot to mention that any withdrawal is going to look like we capitulated. The regime will remain intact. They will have proven that they can withstand an attack from US/Israel. We will have lost deterrence and the illusion that our military is all-powerful. Total disaster.

Some of us expressed great concern about the Iran War when it was first launched. We were shouted down and condemned as “panicans” and “blackpillers” and even Islamist sympathizers. But it’s pretty clear from how things have gone that our concerns were absolutely reasonable and legitimate. Maybe Trump will get us out of this thing soon and it still won’t spiral into a long and drawn out war. But even if that happens — and I’m not convinced it will — no thoughtful person can deny at this point that the spiral and long war scenario is very much a possibility. No reasonable person, at this stage, can say that our concerns were irrational. What looks irrational now — and always did — is the demand for blind allegiance and unthinking “trust” in our elected leaders, as though we are called to have faith in politicians like we have faith in God.

@NickAllmaier Absolutely not exclusive to any particular state. There are very few places for social interactions these days besides bars at night. Even then, very few young people there.

I am hearing this is a south carolina problem

Question: where are people 25-35. Like physically where do they go. I have a sense of where the men are sometimes as I go to Man Places but not all the time. Where is everyone

@Divyaadu He's pretty young. Maybe he's just struggling with social anxiety/depression. I used to have it pretty bad when I was younger and wouldn't dare talk to anyone in a store. I was always amazed at how my mom would strike up conversations with strangers. Now I talk to strangers. 😂

This video is triggering. I asked a random girl in the H Mart if she ever tried the bread I was looking at and if it’s good. She acted like I just told her something horrible. It made me feel so weird I walked home reminding myself that it’s okay to talk to people 🤣 that really messed me up. People can’t be normal anymore.

@barneyxbt @FredWick7 It's not a fumble if it was intentional. This was predictable if you paid attention to how the media stopped attacking him like they did in his first term, all the megadonors rallying behind him. Big tech standing aside, little tech funding him. Miriam Adelson giving him 100m.

@FredWick7 that in itself is a fumble and corruption

trump went from being one of the most loved and promising presidential candidates in modern history to having less than a 30% approval rating in his first year. that has to be some kind of record this man had the entire country behind him. republicans loved him. independents gave him a shot. even some democrats were quietly rooting for change. he had the mandate, the momentum, and a country desperate for someone to actually deliver and he fumbled it so hard that the majority of the people who voted for him are now sitting there in silence wondering what happened. no new wars became a war. drain the swamp became the swamp with new members. america first became israel first the amount of goodwill this man had and how quickly he burned through it is actually unbelievable. you had everything handed to you on a silver platter and this is what you did with it even his biggest supporters can’t defend what’s happening anymore. they just go quiet and change the subject. that tells you everything

@SayNoToTrading Will you continue holding RKLB?

As both SpaceX and $RKLB shareholder, I actually hate this. What will retail sell to cover their IPO allocation? Retail is broke right now as-is. $TSLA, names in $QQQ, and retail meme stocks all seem likely cash sources. I don’t want SpaceX up while others take another leg down and I say this even with 7-figures in it.

@0xReflection Now do gold.

The ugly truth no one wants to hear

@sircalebhammer Not low enough yet.

Young people have dreamed for moments such as these.

@another_heifer @reddit_lies Millennials actually.

@reddit_lies So, GenX is the most competent generation today (not counting the Greatest Generation (WWII)).

No lies detected. It's actually insane how smartphones effectively ruined computer literacy for younger Gen Z and Alpha.

@revenant_MMXX Let's be honest. Nintendo is for children.

Nintendo has the only worthwhile IPs in the console market, but they aren't good stewards of those IPs and this is what I mean. After two open world timesuck chore simulator Zeldas, what's the next "new" Zelda? A remake of an old Zelda. And Ocarina of Time isn't even that good.

@SatoshiFlipper @Teslaconomics You won't get an answer. If you do, it will be vague.

@Teslaconomics what exactly are 16 agents working on for you around the clock?

Grok Heavy is a complete game changer. It’s noticeably faster now, and I honestly use it for everything. I’ve got 16 agents running for me at all times, and it makes me feel superhuman. It’s like having a team of the smartest minds working for you 24/7. I can break down anything, verify anything, and get answers instantly. It’s hard to explain until you actually use it. For me, $3,000 a year is a no-brainer, especially if you are serious about AI.

@elonmusk Wow, better AI slop videos!

The new Imagine model will be even more beautiful

@frontierism @JohnDoe1465160 Literally deported more people under Obama. Our policies are now actually the same as Obama era too. Only going after "criminals".

@JohnDoe1465160 This is James Blair telling them to make the messaging softer, not that they’re stopping enforcement. Headline consoomer

Your choices are: 1. The party that is deporting people 2. The party that literally just flooded the Country with 20 million immigrants

@JohnDoe1465160 @frontierism It's going to happen regardless. You really think a Republican is going to win in 2028? Trump/GOP have done nothing permanent. The border will be reopened just as easily as the border was closed.

@frontierism Apparently we need another 20 million migrants to make the GOP take mass deportations seriously

@elonmusk @Rothmus No it's not and no it hasn't.

@Rothmus That is right about the time that AI exceeds all human intelligence

@GoodLordJord @Investor_NICK_ I am simply a melancholic pessimist by nature.

@Investor_NICK_ Imagine wasting your life partying and hanging out with friends instead of fretting over every little thing that you have no control over. Couldn't be me

My feed on here is people crashing out about $META down -7% and energy crisis around the world from Iran War and surging inflation in the US. My feed on IG is girls flying into Miami for Music Week and partying on yachts🛥️ and eating out/clubbing. The real K shaped economy lol
