Gain Understand Puns

A lot of people still think that the market cap is a reflection of the amount of money invested into Cryptocurrencies. Unfortunately that is far from the truth. The market cap only means the price multiplied the current circulating supply.

In this case, the current BTC supply is 18,930,000 BTC and by multiplying that with a future value of $100,000 you will receive a market cap of $1.893 Trillion, even if the actual amount invested is way lower. If investors are willing to pay $100,000 for a single Bitcoin, exchanges will happily ramp up their price and that will be reflected on the market cap.

On the other hand, if investors are not willing to pay $100,000 for a single Bitcoin and buying pressure becomes lower than selling pressure, exchanges will lower their prices so they can continue to sell Bitcoins and make a profit. Remember, each time someone sells, exchanges have to resell it to someone else to remain in profit. This is why hodling en masse is far more stronger than you think because it encourages exchanges to keep the price as is.

TLDR: A lot of people think that they are no longer early because they think the the $2 Trillion market cap is an actual representation of the amount of money invested. Fortunately that isn't the case and Crypto still has trillions, if not tens of trillions of gains left.

Edit Correction: Exchanges don’t buy coins and flip them, they market match orders. Your not selling to an exchange your selling to a buyer thanks to u/BlubberWall

Over the 8 months I've been on this drug, I've gradually developed all this new fat and cellulite on my butt, hips, thighs, and back. I've made no other changes to my lifestyle. A quick google search reveals hundreds of similar testimonials. Plus, all of these women seem to have real trouble getting their original bodies back, even after years off the drug. It's complete bullshit that this drug doesn't cause weight gain or fluid retention. I'd like to hear people's thoughts on this, because I'm at a crossroads. It helps my hair. But at what cost?

I didn't see this question asked here so would like to know.

I am not an expert on SundaeSwap. This is what I got from the SundawSwap post on here.

Hello everyone,

I want to thank everyone whose going to take the time to read this. It's not going to be long but full of confusion as I don't know what I'm doing.

I started my long career in retail from food, then working in a mall, a computer store, best buy, and a store somewhat like Apple. However, I'm stuck, completely. I have great customer service skills, some Microsoft certifications, and currently working in a company (same company, I had for last 5 years) as a digital sales rep (new role as of Aug 2021).

My true passion is IT or something of it. However, I have done many great projects, Gaines numerous skills in my time but it sickens and kills me that when I'm looking to move up, I don't know shit about Azure (somewhat), AWS, programming , python, Jira, DHCP/TCIP, networking etc. When I look at their pay, it's LOWER than what I'm making and I'm not even asking much! These fucking jobs asking for so many requirements and it's overwhelming me. I don't know what to do??? I have technical knowledge but not as much as these jobs posts be asking!!!

I've been working since 2006 and finally landed a job in an IT company in 2015 (mentioned above) and it changed my life. I've moved up in many roles I'm that job but I'm finally in "corporate" and stuck.

How do I move up? Or how do I look for another job in a other company that will value me and my skills? I got a bachelor's in business and my company is paying for a master's degree in IT.

How can I gain these skills without certifications or even be considered for interviews/tailor my resume to fit those jobs needs if I haven't done any??? This job market is cutthroat and I'm just trying to put food in the table and not really asking much. Please any words of advice would help as to what I should do.

It may be basic math but many people don’t understand that if market dips 10% like we saw it today, it wont mean that its recovered if it pumps 10% tomorrow.

In finances this is called “Percentage gain and loss”. So basically the percentage gained will be of course be different than the percentage lost. Why? This is because the same dollar amount is being expressed as a percentage of two different starting amounts.

-With a loss of 10%, you need a gain of roughly 11% to recover from the dip.

-With a loss of 20%, you need a gain of 25% to recover.

-With a loss of 30%, you need a gain of about 43% to recover.

-With a loss of 40%, you need a gain of about 67% to recover.

From here it gets worse…

-With a loss of 50%, you need a massive gain of 100% to recover. (That's not a typo, if you lose half your money you need to double what you have left to get back to being even.)

With a loss of 100%…you get the idea

Keep this in mind while buying pre-Black Friday crypto deals. And merry gains to you all!

I recently started playing, quickly did my promos and was getting 90-160 AP each game, now I'm d3. I lost 4 in a row yesterday and my highest AP gain at that point was 50, so I'm guessing it's just going to be 12... That means I have to win way too many to hit d2+... Respawn pls

I understand that one must pay taxes on the gains realized at the time an asset is sold, e.g. if I bought 100 shares of AMZN for $100 but sold for $1100, I pay taxes on the gained $1000.

However, what if I have made multiple transactions that are all consolidated together? Say I bought 100 shares of AMZN for $100, then bought 200 shares of AMZN for $2000, so that I own 300 shares of AMZN now, but then I sell just 50 shares for $1000 - how do I calculate the gain? Which 50 of the shares did I sell exactly? Did I sell the earliest ones ($950 gain), of the latest ones ($500 gain), or do I average them out ($650 gain)?

What if I did the same but with two separate portfolios: bought 100 shares on AMZN for $100 in Portfolio 1, then bought 200 shares of AMZN for $2000 in Portfolio 2, and sell 50 shares of AMZN only from one of those portfolios: either 1 or 2. Does that change things from the earlier example where all 300 stocks were consolidated?

/s obv, this is not a real strategy.

Hi,

I am new to trading and trying to understand the capital gains/losses. I have a question on how the losses are calculated. I see that the max losses you can claim is only $3,000. but let's say,

I have started my portfolio with $10,000 and gained almost $35,000 but later in the same year I lost most of my profits and ended up with $15,000 in my account.

Case1: At the end of the year, will I be paying the taxes for the $5,000 in my account. and let's say if you are in a 22% brakcet, will I be paying IRS $5,000*22% = $1100 only?

Case 2: Or will I be ending up paying the taxes for the whole profits $35,000 which is going to be $35,000*22%=$7,700 ? May be I can show the losses as $3,000 which will be ($35,000-$3,000)*22% = $7040.

So, at the end of the year after paying taxes, I will be left with $15,000-$7,040=$7,960 (A total of $2,040) losses.

Could someone help me understand if case 1 is correct or case2 is correct?

If it is already answered somewhere, could you please share the information?

Thanks and Appreciate any help and pointers.

I'm confused because I've come across a couple of articles that say long term capital gains are taxed separately from ordinary income. Both articles (Quary Hill Advisors, Eagle Ridge Wealth) say:

>And now, the good news: long-term capital gains are taxed separately from your ordinary income, and your ordinary income is taxed FIRST.

Given the capital gains tax rates (this hasn't changed very much from 2019-2022), I should have been in the 0% bracket both years. In 2019, I only had about $10k in capital gains.

However, after reviewing my 2019 and 2020 1040s, it looks like my long term capital gains were factored into my taxes. I then used this calculator and it spat out the exact same numbers that FreeTaxUSA put on my tax return. When I toggled between $0 and $10,000 in long-term capital gains, it looks like those capital gains affected my total tax bill by $1500.

My normal wages in 2019 were $60k. Was I being taxed at the 15% rate because my normal income + capital gains tax brought me into that bracket? I thought the first 40k of capital gains were supposed to be taxed at 0%.

Either I overpaid in taxes or I'm not understanding it correctly.

Thanks in advance for your help!

There is an article out today by Axios, available on IOS if you select $GME News, telling the world that $GME mentions have crumbled on the betting Reddit page. It’s over, again. There is a pretty graph proving this fact. As you can deduce for yourself this is another false narrative with the sole purpose to discourage investors. Do they mention r/SuperStonk? Nope. DD? Nope. Is GameStop a meme? Nope.

Personally, I was lucky enough to find r/SuperStonk early enough that a lot of DD was still being talked about daily. So much learning was still being flushed out. I may be retarded but I spent 3 months educating myself before making my first share purchases. 15 days ago green. Today red. Did I sell green? Nope. Sell Red? Nope. Don’t think for a second that everyone here bought at $4. Heck even the OG DFV whom I was late for went all in, again, at $150 after telling congress he was indeed not a cat and the company is still a bargain. Classic.

I often think to myself if I was just tuning in could I have achieved the same level of knowledge and Zen that I have today. Sadly the answer is no. No FNing way.

All of the information is there for anyone to comb thru. Note: I have NEVER seen an article debunking produced DD that debunks the corruption or investment thesis. Not a single article, interview, expert, talking head, etc. I have continuously seen the following: scare tactics, name calling, flat out lies, misleads, head fakes, congressional perjury, experts trying to help me (sell now), etc. etc.

Why do they hate me so much for buying, hodling, and DRSing a stock? Why is that? Why does it bother them so much? Investing for 30+ years and have never seen a buy button turned off nor so much constant misleading information, flat out lies and hate for a single stock. Never. That tells me enough.

In addition to the never debunked DD, which I believe there is a bounty on for anyone to debunk but can’t, GameStop is an obvious turnaround story. An activist investor started this mission over a year ago and has hired over 200 employees from several major technology companies. Sure I’ll leave my job at AMZN or Microsoft or xyz to work for a dying brick and mortar company. Makes sense?!?

I would encourage anyone to comb thru the DD. Try to understand, form your own wrinkles, and see for yourself. Don’t be afraid to ask questions but have tough skin.

With another year and another preseason passing, League has changed pretty fundamentally once again, and this time they did a minor overhaul to dragons by adding two ones - the Hextech and Chemtech drakes - along with updating the Cloud Drake to be more in-line with itself and its previous iterations. They also updated how objective gold works by adding a bounty system which benefits the losing team. With all of these changes, there's a lot to learn going into the next ranked season, so I was hoping to help out by bringing this info into one article where I summarize these additions in simple language while providing some tips and tricks.

Anyway, if this sounds like something you'd like to check out, feel free to follow this link to my guide: https://dignitas.gg/articles/from-hextech-to-chemtech-an-overview-of-the-updated-dragons-from-league-of-legends-preseason. If you have any feedback, I'm always looking to improve, so feel free to pop a comment below and I'll make an effort to respond!

My message behind this post is that it’s ok to sometimes take profit to double up your position. IM NOT PROMOTING THIS METHOD. This method usually works for me though but if it doesn’t work out for me this time then fuck it, I really don’t mind. Money isn’t everything but I’ll still make a shit ton of money with the position I have left if we moon.
