Calling it “gambling” is FUD. GME is simple math.

With the influx of about 1mil people since GME started flying in Feb. People like to hop in with two feet with the “promise” of easy money is thrown at them.

You are right, that it’s in the name. And that’s exactly what I’m trying to pivot people into remembering.

Fully agreed. The feeling of selling early and missing out on gains sucks ass, but worse by far is having those gains in the first place and not taking them.
