I ordered it and eager to check it out. Thanks for the recc.

My father is a physician and still practicing. This is USA centric (I am aware of the issues in the UK and Canada). I outearn him and have a better quality of life and hours than he did in a similar phase of his career/age. Genuinely curious where this myth about the golden age of being a doctor began. If any of you have children considering a career, I would not hesitate to suggest getting the MD and being in command of your destiny. I'm free to speak more privately if there is any questions. Anyways no reason to derail the thread - I would not suggest dentistry as an alternative. They struggle quite a bit with overhead and liability plus many are private practice - most docs today work for hospitals or medical groups where they can at least compete for administration to pony up. I hate to have to say this but I love this career and what I do, cant imagine doing anything else (my folks were lax about me trying things like arch, law and realizing its not where I belong). Its fascinating work and never boring!

Mid 30's physician. Disagree on the posts about our profession being somehow eroded - Medscape and all measures of income, growth and demand are across the board up, and continuing to project that trend. I've never heard of a physician worse off 3-5-7 years after graduating residency. But your milage can vary. Blue collar assembly line job? Is there any more detail to where this comes from? I worked both in hospitals and state facilities, W2, now 1099. I now command my own hours and pay. I use an LLC. I've got more business sense than my peers - but for the most part I don't know anyone who would believe they're not well compensated for their work.

It’s still flying after hours. 8…12…15…. to the moon. Up 25% AH

I watch and watch and wonder what I’m supposed to do when it’s raining money. Totally bonkers. Was thinking it seemed like a fun idea at 26 dollars on the 4th. Darkness, my old friend…

I loved this title. A shout out to all the research put into it. A shout out to another book called Do You Want to Make Money or Would You Rather Fool Around? John D. Spooner (johndspooner.com)

Yesterday; Bought large positions in Paypal, Block Bought smaller position in Intel, GM, Bought even smaller positions in Paramount Global B, Spirit Airlines, Jetblue

COIN Accumulated position through 2022, 2023, sold 1/3 at 75. Sold 2/3 of the remaining position yesterday and today.

Got teary eyed on my drive home after seeing the news pop up. In other news, I ordered the updated Poor Charlies Almanac which should be released soon and cannot wait to read it. RIP. https://www.amazon.com/Poor-Charlies-Almanack-Essential-Charles-ebook/dp/B0C5TCGPPS/ref=sr_1_1?crid=OXZLD6CQFEB2&keywords=poor+charlie's+almanack&qid=1701208035&sprefix=poor+char%2Caps%2C109&sr=8-1

Last week I sold completely out of Netflix.

Last week I increased positions for General Motors and Bank Of America.

Yesterday I tripled my small position on Spirit Airlines and started a small position in Jetblue - will monitor the merger arb situation. I also started a entry position on Paramount Global B

I'm heading to Miami for Bitcoin 2023 which is from May 18-20. Anyone else going? Hit me up. Would love to meet others who are going to be there.

Contrarian play after reading this thread: I should return to NYC. Prove me wrong.

Planning on selling my ibonds in August/September and rolling these into treasury bills. I've been laddering short term paper for a few months to capture some of the yield. 4-17 week duration only. I think I did get a 26 week note. The rates are a bit up/down lately and could potentially drop but I would prefer to just sock it into the market if that happened.
