Don’t know who downvoted you, but as someone who joined WSB two months ago, it is mind blowing. Yes, these are bets. You are likely to blow it all. But imho it gives perspective to the topic of personal finance. Even if it’s just to understand one’s own limits. Valuable sub.

I imagine that WSB is the internet version of what young wallstreet professionals are like.

Go out into the late evenings, drink excessively, do designer drugs, party it up, all while mixing locker-room talk and investing strategies.

If you’re following Nassim Taleb’s 80/20 rule, and have 80% of your money in bonds and 20% in high risk options, it can certainly pay off.
