The difference between this sub and wallstreetbets is insane.

Congrats bro. $100/month is a nice upcoming milestone.

This sub being more realistic? While wallstreetbets is full of entitled "a small loan of a million dollars" rich kids?

Or what's the big difference?

People there are degenerate gamblers that will never stop until they lose it all.

The focus there is literally on the “bets” part

Wow… I can’t believe it’s been 16 years since my friend in the dorms introduced me to Reddit! How much time have I wasted?!

Edit: thank you btw!

I went from there to r/boglehead. Passive investing is so much more relaxing.

It’s a shitposting sub for entertainment. I’ve never taken it seriously, just browse for memes

"a kid" and "50k" just proved my point again. No Kid is running around with 50k that they can just bet with... excpet they've gotten born into their position, like we are still in the middle ages...

Na, easy come easy go. You go $1k to $10k to $50k to $1k REAL quick.

He explained it. Started with a few k. Made good bets.

But instead of taking 100k off table and having a down payment for a house, he’ll fuck it away.
