I'm confused.

I was an active member of this Reddit forum a few years ago and I return and am shocked to see how much has changed.... Top comments saying things like 'I wish I bought less at $30.', 'I can see myself buying again', top post about how $32 is the real price action. This doesn't remind me of the Reddit forum I remember.

So I figured I'd talk to some apes of why I personally invested in GME. It's a fuck you, it's a holy shit this information is correct and I've discovered this big ol' bag of cash these hedge fucks left sitting around for the taking. All I gotta do is wait... The math is correct, as I'm sure many apes have I went down the rabbit hole, I spent months obsessing and researching thinking there's no way. There's no way these hedge fucks who fuck over vulnurable people left a small crack in their defences. I'd spend hours reading FINRA reports about how JPMorgan would take pension funds and short against them, causing people to lose their life savings. This wasn't one report there were countless reports of hedge funds and banks blantantly robbing vulnerable people. They would pay a small fine for it and continue doing it. I only got to read a small portion of these reports and these reports are only the ones they got caught for! Point being it enraged me.

So what am I going to do about it? What am I going to do about the fact that I'm living in a capitalistic world that fucks me over every day and fucks over everyone else except for and incomprehensibly small portion of the population? I'm gonna say fuck you with my money, I'm gonna keep buying GME, locking those shares away and I'm not selling till I see phone numbers.

I cut grass for a living, I make about $16 USD an hour. I'm not going to overextend myself and put money in GME i can't afford to lose cause that money's already gone to me. I'm not waiting for GME to hit a couple hundred bucks, I've already watched life changing money come and go as I held firm with these diamond hands. I set a price alert for $10,000 cause it'll be cool to watch the show but I'll be holding on for dear life on that rocket ship.

I lost my integrity a few years ago cause I thought I was crazy for seeing something that noone else saw, I was losing my life savings cause I over invested and lost hope when everyone around me basically told me I was crazy. Turns out I'm not crazy I'm just autistic, and I over invested and let my emotions get the best of me.

But that's cool, I've learned, I'm not dumping each paycheck into GME I can't afford that like I said I make $16 in this fuckin' economy. But I'll be different this time, I'll buy what I can afford, maybe skip Mcdonalds a couple times and buy GME instead, just kinda throwing money into a pond.

These hands are diamond, I'm not giving any advice just sharing my experience, what I've learned, what I'm going to do different going forward. I'm holding till I see phone numbers so I can sell 1 share and buy a lambo and never have to work again. It'd be nice to not have to cut grass every day.

EDIT: my bad this isn’t a community this is Reddit.
