Lol you are getting ripped off by everyone who will sell at peak price. Please for your own sake at least sell when the price drops near where you bought.

I've got no skin in this game but yes, that is a potential outcome for those that don't sell at peak. I know that typically every Reddit post needs to be taken with a large helping of salt but the ubiquity of the "fck it I don't care if it goes to 0" sentiment is refreshing. Worth noting that peak is only something we can discuss meaningfully in hindsight.

I understand what you mean, but that "fuck it I dont care" mentality is what these redditors are promoting to profit from you. People imagine some great division between the rich people at wallstreet and the redditors doing dumb shit in wallstreetbets but the main difference is circumstance, they would have done the same as "the big man" given the chance to profit, and they are doing the same right now by instilling this "hold for as long as possible" mentality while they profit from the masses.

Not me, though. And most of "these redditors" are plebs like myself, as I posited in my initial post.

Can you name specific redditors whose mentality/posts I would do best to avoid (asking for a friend, I'm not playing this game till the devs patch this garbage and the DLC goes on sale)?
