My perception is/was - this is a friendly place to get the most accurate and detailed information about all things Elon/Tesla/related. So I wasn't too far off

This thread is dedicated to daily market action related to tesla. That’s it. If you are positing anything else - u are off topic and taking attention away to either yourself or something that’s not related to this thread. Pls stop.
Thought deeply during the past weeks about having a giant pile of cash available - larger house - 2 young kids and wife pregnant, and currently weighing upgrading my life or holding onto this giant chunk of my financial future.
And I can’t risk that on a dude who can’t define “tomorrow” properly.
Dude had a few hours left...it is not decided yet.

Give it time. Eventually someone will suggest you go get help. I’ll volunteer to get it out of the way if you’d like.
Geez, the thread turned into "Days of Our Lives" today!
I just came for the lemur.
Come for the lemur. Stay for the personal attacks. :Þ

well whether or not today brings a lemur, if that is what you have going on in your life you def should not be going all-in in Tesla, or any one stock for that matter. I think a prudent financial advisor would say to diversify and de-risk given your situation. And keep a good chunk in cash.
Tesla is a very enticing stock for those who like to gamble (I'm guilty) due to the inherent volatility and potential upside (or potential downside for those religious bears).... but please don't do it if you have major personal obligations that put you in a tight spot. Not worth it. Just put a little into Tesla to enjoy it if it does turn into what we know it can.

Thanks.
Before I found this forum I was relegated to the comment sections of yahoo, youtube, SA, etc... man that was depressing. While this place may also be a bit echo chamber-y... at least it offers a counter balance to the FUD that permeates nearly everywhere else.
I agree however that being in any echo chamber can potentially skew one's view of truth. It seems nearly impossible to have perfectly objective information.
We don't even know what Elon meant about the lemur! Maybe he's going to donate money to a zoo so they can add a lemur "enclosure" aka. exhibit. Who knows. Maybe it's some sort of cryptic joke that we haven't figured out.
I certainly wouldn't base a major investment decision on tweets like that, let alone accuse Elon of lying.
When I saw the tweets, my reaction was along the lines of "that's interesting, wonder what that is". I'm surprised how much attention this is getting.

I come here more for the breaking of news/stories for Tesla as I know the activity/participation is high in this thread and try to make my own assessments. I don't care that the opinions are biased/slanted towards longs - I don't use those in making trading/investing decisions. I also follow many $TSLA bears on Twitter as they will also break news (especially if negative) very quickly.
Seeking Alpha I tend to avoid in general due to the twisting of fiction/opinions into facts.

See SEC documents for Tesla margins. Take out G&A and debt interest and some other items and you are left with profits.
Now you can:
- re-invest into Tesla and expand the products
- put into the bank and sit on the cash (US corps. at all time high for cash on hand)
- big bonuses to management or higher pay
- distribute to share holder
-buy back your stock (again many US corps doing just that)
I really, really like that Tesla keeps growing as fast as they can. I really don't know why anyone complains.
Perhaps if you want to add to stock volatility? Just complain to stir things up?
Perhaps if you want to remove Elon and or take over Tesla to ....what sell off assets; cut costs and maximise short term profits until some real competition shows up?? That is what happened to Timber Industry out here in NW. Japan got lots of cheap wood/trees.
You can read SEC documents. Why does anyone claim they "aren't profitable"? Yes they are and they re-invest.
TOTAL Tesla R&D 2010-2917 about $4.3 billion - see below. ANY other company getting that much bang for the buck??

I really don't understand what people are talking about. I guess when money is your only value all you can talk about is the money game??

Lemur tweet surely means his tweets are still not managed. You could have a 100 tweets that are weird, enigmatic etc etc .. but all it takes is just one tweet that will mess up everything once again .. so maybe best to just stay of twitter .. or start with notACEO handle

Yep, agreed. Your situation is the norm: SA to TMC to enlightenment to Elon Time to the endless wait, but you came in at a good price, so you should be fine, but that’s what I said when I started too. Good luck to you.

Can we just call this one "COMPLETELY RANDOM GENERAL TESLA THREAD"?
It would be accurate, everything would be on topic, and we would be still here anyway, because evidently nobody has better things to do (this is my favourite procastination device).
