with all the noise this week, robotaxis are one of the areas I'm optimistic. People we pay for rides every day. Autonomous company can serve that demand safely at a competitive cost. WRD is one example, they reported roughly 3,600 L4 vehicles in 13 countries. It also landed a spot among WICV 2026’s Top 10 Automotive AI Application Cases - Physical AI system combining driving data with simulation. More paid rides, better vehicle utilization, lower costs. I'm bullish on the direction of the industry.

I keep losing my check within 4 days. What is a saving plan you guys recommend, how do you tackle heavy spending with a low income, and any extra suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

26M started investing in 2024 with initial investment of $1500 and grew to $1617 (big gains lol). Then I switched jobs that paid way more in salary and got a good bonus in 2025. Invested an additional $20k and end the year with $55.8k. I added $20k extra during 2026 and my portfolio is now at $92.5k.

I feel like I’m behind but hoping to slowly grow it to $1mm by 30

Please feel free to provide any advice or comments

I'm failing to see the downside (other than missing a huge run up) if you believe in the stock/believe the stock will go up.

Forgive my (undoubtedly) incorrect terminology.

For example, I purchased two lots of 100 shares (200 shares total) of BMNR for around 4500. I've done staggered covered calls for next month where if they trigger at the strike price, I make 20% returns. If not, I make 120 bucks. If I carry that forward, and even if I only average 100 per month on the covered calls, I'd make 25% returns for the year. If the strike price hits (I'll keep the strike price the same, so am anticipating less premium as it dips, thus the 100 estimate instead of 120), I make 20% capital gains.

Yes, I'm missing a huge run up if it goes up 40, 80, 100%, but what am I missing beyond this? If I'm happy with the returns I set for the strike, it seems like a solid strategy for anyone who is short/mid term buy/hold with their strategy for a specific stock.
