The Changed Self

Watching the stock ticker climb. I fell from 253.53, or thereabouts. Buying one share at a time, the lowest was $206.83.

I "zero out" my account to $4,000.00 at the end of each month, or as soon thereafter as I close out any positions. It makes it easy to see how I've done. This month is $540.00 short as I transferred that amount to checking at mid-month.




This was a few dollars higher a few minutes ago. SOXL, as a 3x ETF, is highly volatile. It's early in the day and if I sold now my cash wouldn't "settle" soon enough for me to trade again until Monday; a limitation of low-budget trading.



But then....

Closed positions on SOXL & TQQQ this morning w reasonable profit. Goal is $20,000.00/day = $400,000.00/mo = $4.8M a year.

    1. Yes!!! I'm seeing this!! And to top it off i'm pretending i just crossed the $200M mark on the stock market.

      I called an air charter service about flying Kristen to Albuq: $65,000.00. Chump change. I priced Gulfstream G450s. They range from 9.5M to 18.2M. I felt kindly toward everyone and enjoyed getting out and away from the responsibilities of managing my money. It was nice to goto the archery shoppe to have a new nok put on an arrow and talk w a realtor about buying a house for One El.

      Living...attitude, is an art.
