Aren't redpill guys obsessed with IQ's? So that could be evidence of a troll, but of course any woman whose a MRA has probably bought into IQ bullshit also. Also there's no way that prenup holds up in court. "Yes, your Honor my client got the plaintiff to sign this ironclad prenup while she was unemployed, pregnant, and suffering from health issues that made it impossible to support herself. And yes those text messages reference a post nup, but that was never actually agreed on. What's so funny your Honor?"

I think that thing is a troll, but if it isn't the solution is to leave and start proceedings for child support.

Surely pregnant fiance is just a men rights guy posting as the ideal woman and this is a way to show how you escape the entrapment of children. Having children is the ultimate BWM move.

S&P 500 specifically. 2. i pay myself the interest about 5%. worth about 2.5k/year. 3. i use the money to make more money. a 10% return. worth about 5k/year. the key risk, if i lose my job. im royally fooked. a few people asked how he plans on getting a 10% return quote:split between a personal loan to family, and working capital in a business, this is prolly higher than 10%.

"this is prolly higher than 10%" is a pretty reasonable expectation. Heck, you can barely fall down without landing on a 7% ROI these days. Seriously how do people not make money. This is so easy.

It's set up as a 'you lend yourself the money But honestly, I don't think margin buying is necessarily a bad thing. If you are only borrowing 20 cents on a dollar of collateral, the market will be unlikely to fall so much that a margin call is triggered (although I suppose this depends on the specific threshold imposed by the brokerage). So, if you have the funds to cover any shortfall, why not? I am not claiming that it is an excellent idea. I am saying that it is not necessarily a terrible idea for ***some*** people. Assuming you get a decent loan rate.

John Smith posted:I have never done any margin buying and I am unsure of the tax consequences for the specific setup you described. You are right that there is nothing fundamentally wrong with leverage (borrowing money to make investments). In fact, used wisely it can be incredibly powerful. The reason we end up talking about it so much in this thread is that humans are really bad at understanding risk, and leverage increases risk in predictable but unintuitive ways. People tend to only focus on the positive aspects of leverage ("I can make three times as much money!"), and dismiss or downplay the negatives ("But I'll only lose three times as much money if the value goes down, and that almost never happens!"). Investing on margin is investing without a net: everything is fine as long as you stay up on the high wire. As soon as you make a mistake, however, you'll just keep accelerating until you got the ground.

As soon as you make a mistake, however, you'll just keep accelerating until you got the ground. Most people, though, can't afford to borrow to invest. First, the risk people take on much higher than returns in terms of consequences, i.e. you can't really comfortably afford to lose money out of your retirement account and an extra few hundred bucks in it doesn't really help you that much. But more importantly, I think, is that you don't have access to cheap borrowed funds as a normal person who doesn't already have a lot of wealth. And when it comes to investments, you don't have the buying power to get more-favorable-than-normal terms that you would get if you had a lot of money behind you.

My perpetually BWM sister-in-law is a good example of over-leveraging and not understanding risk. She gets an insurance settlement and is 'rich' for about six months. In that time frame her husband started/shuttered his own business, complete with corporate debt guaranteed in their name. They also financed a Chrysler, two trucks, a boat, and the foreclosure next to them 'as an investment'. The moment anything went wrong there was no room in that crowded crab shell to compensate. Now one of those cars is wrecked and they can't even afford the deductible to get it fixed. Their latest idea is to turn their current home into an AirBnB and move into the foreclosure property. They live about 25 minutes from a popular resort area, so it's not the most horrible idea in the world, but their house has one sink. Like there are 2 other sinks, but they don't work. I don't know what the sink situation is in the other house, but they aren't considering that for a rental so it's probably worse.

Leveraging because you can get cheap funds at nearly the interbank rate = GWM Raiding your 401k where you can probably get an index fund any way and earn what the market makes to sink into a speculative instrument = nonsensical risky BWM
