Economic crisis creates opportunity for those that can recognize it and are in a position to capitalize on it.  What moves are Getbiggers making.

Bought bitcoins. I have been consistently losing money daily. I'm thinking of posting pics of me wearing short shorts and old shoes putting them up for sale on OfferUp.

If you bought recently you'll probably be ok.  Many of the people I've been listening to said that the price should dip a little bit after the the "halvening" but then make some big gains.

I'm not an expert on bitcoin and I don't own any, but that's what I've been hearing.  I was thinking about buying some as kind of a Hail Mary but I haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Right now I sacked my plans to buy a rental property and I've started to get more into tech stocks for long term growth and dividend stocks for long term passive income.

I feel like soon it will be time to make a bigger move but I haven't settled on exactly what I should do.  Kinda playing the waiting game to see how real estate reacts to all the chaos.

Gonna start selling T-shirts. One will say "Shit just got real" with an "Army of Onetm" trademark. I'll give him a 0.003% royalty to match the death rate of Covid.

Bitcoin is the only asset where people will rush to white knight it in the face of obvious losses. A true cult.

Not stock market knowledgeable since I invested in one of Arnold's movies (Film Partners??? Hollywood film accounting seldom leaves anything for investors).... but can any of youse GetBiggers offer some basic investment comments regarding one or more of the following 'opportunities' ...

TESLA ... All I know about this is .... 'the car that drives itself'.

5G ... The forthcoming speedy chip that will revolutionize everything!

And some new truck that doesn't need gas but uses Hydrogen? NICOLA...?

The UV light industry appears to be big in LV now.

Any other that you'd recommend ....

Responses to each such as the following would be appreciated ....

Good to buy now?
Price per share now?
Required minimum purchase? $500 / $1,000 / etc?

Any additional from any  knowledgeable GetBigger?

Positive cash flow on my rental properties; as long as my tenants pay on time things are good.  Been toying with the idea of building a rental cottage in my back yard (I have the space for it and some of my neighbors have them) https://www.coolhouseplans.com/house-plan-45187 but from construction to occupancy there are many ways this could go south.  I think I would be better off buying another rental property.  If, as I suspect, real estate dives over the next 12 months due to these unemployment numbers it will be a good time to buy another house.  If I do end up doing the cottage thing I would only rent to someone like a travel nurse.  For the most part they are vetted by their employer, their ability to pay is guaranteed, and best of all they are temporary; if I don’t like them they will be gone in a matter of weeks.

Very underrated comment from an overrated poster.

By working harder and smarter. If you’re a business owner who got the PPP loan and continue to have work, that’s a real bonus. Free money as long as you are generating revenue by working.

Amos if you are in a decent cash position now, ie saved what you made over the boom times, you should be able to pick some stuff up on the cheap.

Bought stocks in Penn National, MGM, Wynn, El Dorado, Las Vegas Sands, and CBSViacom. Bought a bit of DraftKings when it was DEAC and should have bought a toooon more and would've made monster gains, but was my first foray into buying individual stocks (except CBSViacom) as opposed to index funds.

Unsure on what to do with Real Estate market as here people are still going $10,000-20,000 over asking price.

Getbiggers don't worry about making money, we worry about where we will spend all of our vast wealth.

The Goodrum Group http://www.goodrumgroup.com.  New business I started last month with Judi (jaguarenterprises) from here at Getbig.

Working out ok so far, I hope to bring in more commissions next quarter but its a good source of residual income selling gold and cryptocurrency.   Serious learning curve though I have to admit but you can become an affiliate for free and learn the ropes before getting on the field.   But in this day and age, we gotta do work

We may get a housing bubble post corona because mortgage rates have fallen close to their historic lows, and first time buyers are looking to jump right on it. People will get burned.

This is in the UK anyway.

I'm hoarding silver right as insurance for these uncertaint times, and a bit of a hail mary that it might triple in value soon.

I've actually benefited pretty well from this situation. I usually spend around $500 a month on commuting alone, not to mention another $400 a month on eating in restaurants. So without commuting and restaurants being closed I've saved an extra $900 a month, plus my unemployment along with the additional $600 a week I have no complaints.

I dont give a fuck about that as much as the cryptocurrency and the CashGold.  Selling gold by gram and less allows regular people to have gold in their possession

You said you were selling gold, but the answer to my question appears to be zero.

Vince was the first on here to advise on bitcoins, unfortunately since at the time vince was so poor a chicken dinner and 18” flatscreen telly were considered the epitome of luxury we all dismissed it as another one of vince’s hair brained schemes that could only result in further poverty.
