they were shorting the stock expecting them to go bankrupt and if you got in when it was 20 and got out at 240, well that speaks for itself and that only took 3 months.

I use an investor for my real money. Over the last year I've bade about 11% on the investors suggestions plus dividends every month.

and I have owned SPY (and EFT) I bought in during covid when it was at 1800 points (the S&P 500 stock exchange) it's currently at about 5200. I put 5 grand into that back then and it's a nice little egg.

yes he's a good one. He is fair with his commissions and calls me every time he's going to do something. Teaches me a lot. These are mostly "mutual funds".

I have about 30k total in all that, so it's a good backup for the retirement. Plus if I die my wife will have something to fall back on including my SS which is double hers.

so I could take 100 easy and give what bf is talking a whirl. Then Penguin thing looks interesting. If it pops the way he says it might, youd make a nice return off very little money

I still work three days a week running the store so I get income off that and SS plus the dividends from the investments and her income and SS as well. We're set pretty well.
