The joy's of not reading the forum for a few days haha. Here we go! Great to know! Will keep up with it on background, thanks dl003. Perhaps this is a situation where complacency breeds comfort, but I consider Tesla as a safe investment at this point. Even if we go into recession and the P/E...

I wish I could just shadow someone to learn a way to low risk my way into this. I’ve got 1500 shares and have been terrified to do anything. With only a 50k income and being up like 1300-1700% over 5 years I fear I’ll always be too paralyzed to take risk as this is my one way ticket to an early...

I really want to get into this but would love to dip into a quick conversation if I had questions, which I will have. A revolving monthly 1% on my 1500 shares would effectively change my life as I've only made 60k in liquid a year for over a decade. Adding a few grand in the coffers would be...

Yeah meant to say Jan 1, 2022. So I wondering it makes sense to somehow delay it to January 1, 2022 and even if the car is delivered after that it’ll be retroactive from then. Just not sure if I should take delivery this year or not.

I ordered a Model 3 in September, with an expected delivery date for December. In October I received a call saying one was available, I wasn't ready, and I declined it. Today I received a call saying one was available, I read rumblings about this Washington stuff, so I declined it. I read that...

At my first million last November, can’t believe it hasn’t been a year and I’m up an additional $364,000. I only make 50k/yr and the surreal feeling completely messes with me psychologically. It’s actually paralyzing, but as I’m paralyzed I’m taking no actions and continuing to hold which...

it appears we are back to the regularly scheduled programming of 2014-2019.

That dude is wrong so often I stopped taking anything he says seriously.

I’m a video producer, and I run a global video studio, and I absolutely despise every single live event the Tesla runs. I do live programs several times a week and it takes practice to get it right, but it seems like the guys that they consistently hire to run their programs always have trouble...

Some family already came to me with their savings and told me to invest basically for them. I told them I don't offer financial advice because I seriously am one of the most ignorant people when it comes to the market, and the only thing I feel strongly about is Tesla's future 10 years from now...

Thank you for the advice, I will heed it. One of the defenses I keep repeating to everybody is that the money is locked up in untouchable for many years, I know that really is not going to change anything but I’d like to think it slows people down in thinking that I’m not gonna go out and spend...

There’s no doubt there will be downside (already there has been some mentally), but at some point when Tesla is $2000/share and I finally can build my dream house, word is going to go out to anyone that visits. It was crushing to keep everything inside, having no one to talk to, and I know it’s...

My dads from Texas! Love it there. interestingly other than a few friends from high school (graduated 15 years ago) reaching out to congratulate me, it’s been relatively quiet, with the exception of my parents dancing in the middle of the living room that their son had “made it,” it’s a weird...

Hello ladies [Insert smooth talker voice here]. That would be me, I usually lurk in the shadows but this time my big mouth got my story shared by Kimbal and liked by Musk. What a simulation. Peace and Love y’all. Thanks for the nice comments. Over 1.4 million people saw that. I never shared...

To be honest I hadn’t the faintest idea where to start. Your mention of psychologist/therapist is the first time anyone’s ever recommended anything like that to me, so I feel pretty ignorant. There’s also financial execution worries, and not making mistakes there. I’ve rationalized everything...
