Jeffrey is a Bitcoin millionaire, everyone knows that.

Yeah Lowtax was constantly whinging about how SA barely made enough to get by but when Jeffrey took over it turned out that it had way more than enough income to cover its expenses and Lowtax had just been spending the extra on himself.

It barely made enough after he'd skimmed enough prescription painkillers off the top line would be a more accurate narrative I guess.

There’s kinks, then there’s making at least 7 different people’s lives intertwined around you because you can’t just loving role play or whatever.

r/superstonk is getting to the top of r/all by promising riches.



The plan is...

Ok so I saw your post on the top of r/All. I’m an Aussie with an iPad and a few dollars to my name. What steps do I take?

Top replies:

quote:

You are the catalyst

You have a winning way, so keep it
Your future, your future, your future
You are an angel heading for a land of sunshine
And fortune us smiling upon you

quote:

1, Open a brokerage account - IBKR, Fidelity

2, Fund the account.

3, Buy GameStop.

4, Direct register your shares.

5, Buy more at Computershare.

That's... it?

quote:

Unfortunately you are going to be a millionaire, and you’ll be buying whatever house you like for cash

quote:

G’day mate!

First you need to set up a trading account with a broker, then you buy the stock ’GME’.

Then I’d recommend reading some DD (due diligence) to get up to speed. Theres a very good beginners DD, I’ll see if i can find it for you.

It appears to me that the Gamestop / AMC / Memestock thing is basically a cult now? I mean, during the peak lockdown, before vaccine rollouts and whatnot, that was like two weeks of excitement but seems like people are legitimately carrying this forward, thinking that Gamestop will be the end of the economic system as we know or one share will be worth million??? :psyduck:

There was a point where they had a chance to do an internet-based pump and dump that would leave big finance companies holding the bag. It's not technically illegal to use a subreddit to pump a stock like using a TV channel would be. Then Robinhood illegally popped the bubble because they correctly calculated that the fines for doing so would be less than the amount of money their parent company was going to lose. At this point the Redditors are either trying to make someone's else hold the bag, or they're cargo cultists.
