Were they given that money in 1940?

Hard to imagine turning $1,000 into enough to retire on...did they find a 1 million % return?

I believe that is what they told you but I don't believe what they told you.

They didn't tell me...as of now it's a ward rumor...so, it could be fake news...

Ward rumor is the worst rumor out there. I'd put a .001% chance it's true

Doesn’t work. If the appreciation happens before the move, they’re still

Bought GME early - sold high?

Eddie

That would have netted them at most like $80k

There has to be more to the story....typically you cant invest just $1,000...

GME call options would have done it.

2/18/21 5:21pm

With just $1,000?

WJCougar

2/18/21 5:27pm

Yes. Call option prices were insane at the peak. Could have bought 4000 options

2/18/21 5:43pm

Someone actually pulled this off, read an article about it 2-3 days ago

Lol even if they bought and sold Doge or GME at the best possible times they

probably made more on the house they bought (or the parents bought) than the $1k

You move to Puerto Rico for one day more than half the year to avoid income tax

It's my understanding that they are buying a house in Puerto Rico...they told

Don_Juan_El_Guapo

Also, why would Puerto Rico EVER want to become a state if their taxes are that

Don_Juan_El_Guapo

2/18/21 5:28pm

They are poor and have bad govt. Pretending that

Plato

2/18/21 5:47pm

$1k can only turn into so much money. Even if they put it in Tesla it's not all

Ash

Buying stock no. Buying options yes.

2/18/21 5:45pm

Puerto Rico is about to become state # 51 — plan derailed by Biden
