  1. Oh, I got in at .12, rode it to .40, got out, got back in got out, then I started to ride ETC, got out of that, back in to Doge. Trying to flip between the two. Totally a gamble.

     

    And yes, my strategy sucks. It's a good thing I'm not reliant on this little pittance of an "investment".

  2. Yeah, I've sold plenty at a loss to move into something that's making money. Know what happens next? That investment turns into a loser too. Sell that at a loss. Rinse repeat. I'm not a good market gambler.

     

    I got lucky like 3 times. PLTR, AMC, CCIV. But every time, I sold on the way back down after when I could have taken more profit (cause I'm a greedy ****). Made a ton on Dog and ETC too, but then they tanked. It's a ****ing gamble.

     

    I do bet there's still plenty of volatility left in dog coins though. 

  3. I think it's probably over. But now, I have an average cost of .65 since I was flipping between Doge and ETC so now I'm just chilling down a cool 25% or whatever. You live by the meme, you die by the meme. Gonna have to wait on that lambo.

  4. I can't believe that I bought into ANY crypto, let alone a meme coin, but here it is making me as much or more money than I made (and then lost) on AMC, GME, PLTR, CCIV or any other meme pump and dump stock.

     

    Plus, here's my issue with BTC or really any "real" crypto...

    They're all too ****ing expensive to be relevant.

     

    BTC is ~$56,000 right now. Say Amazon starts accepting BTC for payment. Are you going to order your jumbo Bounty paper towel for $5.99 in BTC? That's like .001 BTC? It's so incongruent with the USD that it makes zero sense to actually use as a currency unless you're buying really, really, really expensive ****. So what's the point? This **** will never actually be anything other than a manipulated currency exchange that we will never use unless it gets close or equal to a 1:1 or 1:10 or 1:100 exchange and then STABLE.

     

    So people laughing at dog coin can **** right off. Nobody is going to use your Bitcoin for anything, any time soon. It's just as much of a meme coin as dog coin. Now come here and tell me I'm wrong and there's some sort of non-imaginary value of Bitcoin.

  5. OK, so back to raising kids instead of preventing kids...

     

    My wife and I finished up with our 6 year old's Kindergarten last week. We did home school from Calvert. A combination of Kindergarten and 1st grade to get their equivalent of what FCPS would consider Kindergarten. We did school 4 days a week for about 1-1:30 each time. Frankly, I think that we are more happy that he finished than he is. Teaching is HARD. Especially when you're only teaching to one person. You know if that person isn't paying attention or doesn't have interest in the subject. It can be frustrating. Our guy was really, really good for most of it and retained a lot of the information and did well on most of the tests. So we are lucky. He is ready and willing to learn and even outside of "school" he's trying to learn new things.

     

    All that said. We are no teachers. We have a rising Kidergartener as well (so 1st grade and K next school year). We can't feasibly do 2 kids home schooled. We are totally ready for school to start full time next school year. I appreciate you teachers.

    True story:  when i was growing up my mom forced me to read Etiquette by Emily Post, in its entirety.

    So Im pretty much a savage, but i know my forks and always send thank you cards when appropriate. 
     

    But seriously, **** that little fork. 

     

    We refer to them as "little fork" and "big fork". Big fork is for adults and little fork is for kids. The end.
