Thread of the ongoing education series with @BonkDaCarnivore and @professor_TopK. We have had 3 so far which you can find in this post and as we do more spaces I will keep adding them to this thread. I will pin this post to my profile so it’s easy to find First 3 topics Tariffs Inflation Energy independence and oil / gas

Now that will preach 🤣

Indeed

Maybe that was the secret ingredient to creating the best music ever made 😃

The last 24 hours Twitter or X has been like it is 2012 all over again. Since Elon Musk became a paper trillionaire ( not liquid net worth) every leftist is filled with a combination of rage, envy, jealousy and of course economic ignorance. They remind us that they remain stuck in the economics is a zero sum game mindset and view all wealth as created and belonging to the state to use as they see fit. These people really believe that if Elon Musk was not worth what he is somehow the poor and middle income people in America would make more. They actually believe that the state should just confiscate half his wealth ( it won’t be worth half if he was forced to liquidate his assets) and solve world hunger. They don’t get that you would destroy the wealth producing enterprise by doing so. They are convinced that none of this would have happened without government- reminds us of when Obama said that because the government builds roads they may as well have created auto companies. They think America would be better off if billionaires didn’t exist at all and somehow wealth was capped. They totally believe the state can do better things with your money than you can despite unlimited evidence to the contrary. They totally believe all billionaires got that rich with some kind of cheating and fraud and corruption. They ignore the well over 150,000 jobs Elon’s companies have created and the tens of thousands of millionaires among his employees and people who bought stock in his companies. Many of these were regular blue collar Americans who would never ever have this wealth otherwise. It’s not just democrats ….its also some on the so called right who are economic ignoramuses and filled with envy and jealousy. You can criticize Elon for many things and yes government contracts did help him get rich. He is one of the tech bros with the God complex which is my problem with him. But they use him as a proxy for attacking ALL wealth and pushing higher taxes on people like him as the solution to our problems when the facts are that too much spending by government is the problem and both parties are guilty. Envy, jealousy and comparison will rob you of your peace. Your life is not worse off because someone got rich. In fact it would be worse off if we had fewer wealthy people.

Barely satire at this point 😃

X today is full of millionaires whining and complaining about a trillionaire 😃

Let’s say we go along with this madness How do you tax AI ? Do I pay a tax because I used AI to do a search on some topic ? Does a small business owner pay a tax because they used AI to set up some service they provide ? Every single company uses AI in some manner. Do we tax them all the same or in proportion ? Just another hare brained loony leftist idea based on envy and hatred of the rich.

Leftists like the Nazi Platner are economic retards. They live in a zero sum game mindset. They believe that if there are fewer rich people that means the poor and middle income people will have more. The exact opposite is true. Wealthy people create jobs directly or via investing. Fewer wealthy people won’t help lower income people. Envy is a sin that will destroy your peace.

Besides this being a terrible idea the math simply doesn’t work. We have 20 million Americans in colleges and trade schools . Let’s take a low number of $15,000 for a year of tuition. So that gives us $300 billion and that’s just for 1 year and doesn’t include room and board. 5% of the Elon net worth of $1 trillion gives us $50 billion So the math is not even close. Leftists suck at everything Including basic math.

Yes we know 😃

Rolled my $ARM calls to 400 for 6/18 after I had puts on $ARM for the ride down last week. And I did NOT see the @BonkDaCarnivore not so cryptic clue on this trade.

Bought a bunch of $SOXL calls Sold the June and July calls Left the August calls alone I was looking at placing these trades anyways….the @BonkDaCarnivore confirmation is always nice to increase my confidence on the trade 😎

Regular listeners to the Diner with @CookedGooseinFL and @dreabearextra have heard me say this every single day.
