OT: I paid off my student loans in a day on the GME mania

[Weagle1492]

I got into GME at 18$, I sold enough at 408 to pay off my student loans in cash. I don't really feel like telling real people since they might get jealous or something. Also, I'm not actually going to use the money to pay loans just yet because Biden and co. might forgive student debt and mine are all federal so no point, but whenever that gets resolved it feels good to know I paid for a whole damn degree in a week of investing.

That ain’t nothing my youngest Boog gambled up 50 bucks & got his money back +80. That’s gonna knock a ton out of his next one year plus dental school tuition. And he didn’t tell me until I had already bought lunch today.

thanks guys, it was stressful but def worth it pulling my hair out for a few weeks. Never believed the "stick it to the hedge funds" line telling people not to sell 1200%+ up. Thats just stupid I'm not risking my future just so a guy 1000x richer than me might have a bad tuesday, that was one of the all time dumbest things I'd seen the internet do but hey, they propped the price long enough for me to extract max value. Feel bad for the people who risked money they needed to buy in at 300, but the stock market is the most efficient method of taking money from the stupid and greedy.

edit: my broker when I sold, said "you're a smart man, there are bulls and bears, and then there are pigs.... pigs get slaughtered, congrats"

Gave me chills and the little "congrats" from a jewish guy in NYC felt so good weirdly. He knew what the money meant.

Cool. My wife’s are about to be paid off by Uncle Joe Biden and I didn’t even have to have a fake conversation with a broker.
