My partner and I were so entertained by reading WSB last night we bought a share at $350.

I don’t particularly care if it goes to $10 tomorrow. I don’t expect to make money here. It’ll be fun to watch for a few days, maybe weeks.

We just felt a lot of solidarity with the sentiment over there, and are happy to make a small contribution to the squeeze.

It feels kind of like contributing to a Kickstarter with low chance of success.

But you know, there’s a nonzero chance it goes to $1000 before the shorts can wiggle out. That’s what makes it exciting.

In general, since watching what they did to Tesla I have no sympathy for shorts.
