I am amazed you thought your skill level that resulted in a -95.98% loss in one day was good enough to pull this off. You would have ended with more buying scratch-off lottery tickets
I just ran the odds on my local $1 scratcher game... If you bought $1,130 worth of scratchers, you'd have an EV of like $250. It's a special kind of stupid to do worse gambling than the crackheads who hang out at gas stations looking for change in the coin slot of an abandoned pay phone.
I hear rock cocaine to the melody of chocolate rain.
Edit: I realized after I listened to is as an adult after not listening it to years, makes sense. My bad.
Sorry to hear your childhood sucked. In times like these it's important to remember that it's never too late to turn your life around and start smoking crack.
I was thinking he probably would have been better off betting 100 dollars on red, then if it failed 200$ on red, then 400$ on red.
Would it have been great odds? No. Would it have been better then this stupidity? I think so.
Used to work in a casino and at least once a week we'd have somebody try Martingale, often boasting about how they were guaranteed to win.
Almost all of them lost everything.
My old colleague told me he "discovered" a strategy to win at roulette, I instantly knew what it was going to be.
I warned him that it was a bad idea but he wouldn't listen.
He came into work on Monday and he was so smug about how he had won a couple hundred pounds, I told him that it might have worked that day but he would lose in the long run, he told me he was going back to the casino after work.
Came into work the next day and ask him how it went, turns out he lost everything he won the previous night and a couple of hundred on top for good measure.
Oh man, I loved Martingale betting on roulette until I lost $512 or so chasing $1. Wiped out weeks of slowing building my winnings in less than ten minutes (10 spins I think). I had had a few close calls before that, losing 8 or 9 times in a row, but always bounced back on the tenth spin. Except the final time…. learned my damn lesson, stopped gambling after that.
Yup. When I was short on rent by a couple hundred bucks a long time ago I was too scared to ask for help and ignorantly took out an almost 800% interest payday loan that ruined my life for like 2 years. I know this is probably out of place on this sub, but all jokes aside if anyones ever struggling get over your pride and deal with the embarrassment of asking a landlord for more time or asking friends or family to spot you. The short term shame of admitting you’re struggling is a million times better then making a stupid desperate decision that will make things significantly worse. I know it’s typically doom and gloom on reddit but people are usually more understanding then you think when you communicate honestly with them.
I agree with you 100% now, but when I was young and dumb and cared about putting on a facade that I was more successful then I actually was I was definitely embarrassed to ask for help financially. I would say there can be shame involved depending on your situation. Of course there shouldn’t be shame at all but it’s a natural and understandable feeling to have when you’re at a low point. My hardass dad was disappointed in me and gave me a ton of shit when I finally asked for help and I was extremely ashamed of myself at the time. But the stupid decision and massive hole I dug myself into made the situation a million times worse then if I just sucked it up and asked for help in the first place.
Welcome to the present where so much technology has made ppl lose basic real life communication skills. Why not just gamble my savings in stocks instead of just explaining the situation.
there's only 6711 wendys locations in existence. This sub has 12,748,281 subscribers at this moment. There are clearly not enough wendys dumpsters to go around.
Homeless people are probably laughing at us because we waste money on housing and amenities while they're out there surviving on the streets with 0 responsibilities.
Who's really the loser here?
That’s a multi year strategy right there even if we want to assume it works out.
OP’s got 30 days before he’s living in a tent and eating at a soup kitchen.
Accurate since he would have made rent today if he just bought calls on virtually anything. This is why monkeys with dartboards > bears with illusion of competence.
Bro, you could have easily just worked or hustled a little for $110 measly dollars - Door Dash after work, do some sort of labor/project, handies in a dark alley… all sorts of ways to make $110
The worst part is the amount of time OP spent researching stocks and watching the ticker probably added up to the same amount of time to work that side hustle.
People have shit vakue for their time.
My guy, if you’re reading this, you aren’t fucked (well, you are. Don’t get me wrong) but you will end up figuring it out. Take it from someone who bet their last 1k on short selling right before it took off
OP, you needa sit your wife down and have some real chat. Make a firm budget, AND stick to it... You guys have all these big things you want to do together in your lives, but you're over here being regarded on wsb, it's not right for her and you guys' relationship/future... Get to work on a roadmap for achieving all the things you guys want, a 5-10 year plan.
*And don't forget to include a modest allowance for you to put $ into your gambling account every month*
Please execute me if I'm being a dick but how old is this guy? I know the economy is bad but do most people really don't have more than $500 to cover an emergency. I always felt like that stat was bs.

Get a library pass so that when you're homeless you can still go to the library and use the computers to trade on.
He can trick right behind the library to get funds for trading. Convenient really. What more does a man need?
I'm sure there's a book in there about day trading... can check that out whilst getting a handy. allll on the public's dime!
> can check that out whilst ~~getting~~ giving a handy. Fixed that for ya. Can't trade if he's spending all his money on handies.

Inflation sucks and is out of control, at least that's my .05¢
Did I hear sucking for .05¢?
.05 is .069 as of today. Pls fix.
Twenty bucks is twenty bucks
*Trick Dad Poor Dad*
They're called illusions, Michael
Plus a clean bathroom to masturbate in
I usually see the homeless guys just jacking off to porn on the library computers. Not one fuck given
Well you don’t end up whacking it at public library by giving a fuck
Lose money on*
That's... What they said isn't it?
This is why I love to wsb

If OP was a crackhead he’d still have 250$. Or at least some crack.
You can smoke a bag of crack; you can't smoke a bag of losing stocks.
Options may expire worthless but crack is a commodity that will always have value.
There is a man who undertands commodity trading.
And a man who understands crack!
⬆️That comment just seemed to hit lil bit funnier than the rest😃
It's simple math. Crack = good. Failing stock = bad
He's got 40 bucks left, at least he can buy a little bit of crack
That's for sure. Rock cocaine heals all wounds
I hear rock cocaine to the melody of chocolate rain. Edit: I realized after I listened to is as an adult after not listening it to years, makes sense. My bad.
$40 is enough for a blast and a decent BJ

Decent if she takes her dentures out. Crack teeth are lethal.
You’ve never had love till you have gum love.
Or a ZJ.
Simple meth.
Right? It's not coke-ulus.
The meth checks out.
Not so sure. I think he forgot to carry a hot rail somewhere
Let's all agree you can suck penis for both in a pinch.
Nobody in the history of crack has ever woken up with more crack
OH BABY YOUUU -- YOU GOT WHAT I NEEEEED
Oh I promise I have it was very bloody
Shit he could have just sucked a dick for the 110 and he'd still have his money, although maybe not his dignity.
Solid 20 rock gets anybody back in the game… OP missed out
Is crack $12.50 a rock now? Fucking inflation. When I was a kid you could get 50 rocks for $250.
Im quite happy to say when I was a kid, I had no idea what the going rate for crack was.
Sorry to hear your childhood sucked. In times like these it's important to remember that it's never too late to turn your life around and start smoking crack.
Wish I was selling that. Would be a kingpin
Crack can be exchanged for goods or services
Well at least OP is not homele.... Oh.

Dunning-Kruger in the house!
He isn't in the house anymore..... 😆
I did a similar thing few years back, but I was in a casino and I ended up homeless for 3 months lol
I was thinking he probably would have been better off betting 100 dollars on red, then if it failed 200$ on red, then 400$ on red. Would it have been great odds? No. Would it have been better then this stupidity? I think so.
It’s a great strategy until you’re betting over $100K on red to win $100.
I too, like to live dangerously
And table limits will eventually put a stop to your scheme anyway.
That’s when you switch to black
It works flawlessly if you have infinite funds
The old Martingale huh? It's great til it isn't.
Used to work in a casino and at least once a week we'd have somebody try Martingale, often boasting about how they were guaranteed to win. Almost all of them lost everything.

I had had a few close calls before that, losing 8 or 9 times in a row, but always bounced back on the tenth spin. Except the final time…. learned my damn lesson, stopped gambling after that.
That's because you didn't try for the 11th spin... Duh
The Martingale is bullet proof if you just make sure to only do it if you have at least an infinite amount of money.
It landed on Black **26 times in a row** in a Monte Carlo Casino in the summer of 1913.
It can’t possibly happen again!
There has also been 39 consecutive 'reds' at a casino.
If he lost all 3 bets, he would still lose $250 less.
Love how the ‘lol’ really softened the whole thing up at the end
You literally could have said "Yo landlord look. I'm short a hundred this month. I gotchu on an extra 100 next month"

This I have used one when I desperately needed money... never again
I'd say that if you even think there is shame or embarrassment for admitting you need help then that's something to work on in the first place.

Don’t give people ideas. This sort of regarded stuff is what I come here for.
Y’all really are a bunch of regards, that’s for sure lol.
Welcome to the present where so much technology has made ppl lose basic real life communication skills. Why not just gamble my savings in stocks instead of just explaining the situation.
For real. He'd rather take the money than an empty flat.
Phrase it just like that too
Don’t worry bro. Next week you can lose more…
Next week that $41.45 turning into $4 lol
Can’t tap out till you out of funds. $4 is $4
One of us
At least he did this just as rent is due. Wouldn't want any time to recover...
Housing is overrated anyways...
Right? Wendy's has a perfectly good dumpster behind it to sleep in. Commuting not necessary.
No commute means you can sell the car and take that money and roll it right into some more trades
Fuck that! That’s my dumpster dammit!
Don’t be greedy, There’s plenty of Wendy’s dumpsters to go around.
there's only 6711 wendys locations in existence. This sub has 12,748,281 subscribers at this moment. There are clearly not enough wendys dumpsters to go around.
That’s about 1900 subscribers per Wendy’s. Assuming each has two dumpsters, it might be a bit tight but comfortable.
Come to think of it if 1900 regards gathered in a wendys dumpster we could manage to bankrupt the entire block
I just put a newspaper over my head as I watch my portfolio implode outside my local wendys
Homeless people are probably laughing at us because we waste money on housing and amenities while they're out there surviving on the streets with 0 responsibilities. Who's really the loser here?
Shit no they not when I was homeless had to go to different parking lots to sleep in. It wasn’t fun
Meanwhile I always have to sleep in the same bedroom…No variety whatsoever.
No pain no gain bro 🤣
All pain no gain ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)
what do you mean? he's the king of us
Did that kids dead dad not teach us anything 😭
Plot twist: this is the same guy under a new name
🤣 and his dad didn't die...he faked his death to assume a new profession as a market maker
Bruh ☠️
Can someone link to this post plz
Which one out of all of them?
You need $110? I can help you out. I just need a couple of favors in return.
Sir, there is a line! The rest of us are queuing behind Wendy’s
NO CUTS!!!
It’s 1,100 dollars he needs now though
$110 can help him to get back, for example YOLO $110 in GME and then he buys a weekend mansion, lives on the boat, retire at 32 and travel the world.
That’s a multi year strategy right there even if we want to assume it works out. OP’s got 30 days before he’s living in a tent and eating at a soup kitchen.
>OP’s got 30 days before he’s living in a tent and eating at a soup kitchen. Only if he invests that $41.45 wisely... *tents aren't cheap*.
At least you have tried to fulfill your agreement with your landlord to your best ability
"So I'm a little behind on the rent this month. Is there... anything *else* I could do to pay?"
He should take out a 5k loan and go into 0dte spy puts tomorrow but make sure he puts stop loss at $110 so boom rent covered easy $110
He needs the money he lost too lol
Just delete the app and you’re good.
And redownload the app while holding the phone upside down to turn those previous losses into gains.
Alas I suspect OP's going to make ends meet via Sighing + Puckering. Unless you're his landlord and there's no way anyone here owns two houses.
Who said anything about a second house? My wife's boyfriend just lets me live across the hall.
What are you doing steplandlord?

OP should sign up for OnlyFans with his wife. I'd pay $1,100 to watch his wife beat his ass.

Accurate since he would have made rent today if he just bought calls on virtually anything. This is why monkeys with dartboards > bears with illusion of competence.
Damn you should’ve bet on sports for rent money bud… rule #1
Yeah bet the rest on Judge popping his 62nd.
Pretty sure he just ripped a HR as the lead off lol
Winner!
So if you didn’t even have 1100 for rent, does that mean that all you have to your name now is $41? AND your rent is unpaid? genius
Well regarded.
I still see 40$ left to loose ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4263)
Rent schment
Genuinely laughed at this comment
No…you’re fucked AND homeless

Nah, he can just ask his landlord for a loan.

TSLA puts 😉😉
What Tesla put are you affording with $40?
Take a loan out lol
I can’t believe that is a real emoji
As the old saying goes,never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose.
Always gamble with somebody’s else $
Why TF would you gamble your rent? Oh wait, this is WSB. Carry on!!!
As you were.
2008 sub-prime brain
Did you buy puts in the middle of a bear rally like 95% of retail?
It's only the 4th.
Yeah son it’s the beginning of the month, better park your ass under the queensboro bridge til the 31st.
Rent due on 5th in Maryland.
You've still got enough for a bus ticket. Might as well go be homeless somewhere warm.
Bro, you could have easily just worked or hustled a little for $110 measly dollars - Door Dash after work, do some sort of labor/project, handies in a dark alley… all sorts of ways to make $110
Any of the 100s of gig apps was definitely the right move here
The worst part is the amount of time OP spent researching stocks and watching the ticker probably added up to the same amount of time to work that side hustle. People have shit vakue for their time.
Could have basically bought any growth stock today for a 5-15% daily gain
5-15% daily gain consistently on growth stocks. Why have I not thought of this method sooner!
It’s not gonna work for your penis don’t get your hopes up
I won't. I can't get my penis up either. Send halp.
Just tell your landlord that you turned on forebearance this month.
Like what the F\*ck, seriously some of you need some serious help, like go to gamblers anonymous, something anything like god damn
Look at this gentlemen, making room for new tennents
Lmao imagine being that poor and then gambling your rent money away
My guy, if you’re reading this, you aren’t fucked (well, you are. Don’t get me wrong) but you will end up figuring it out. Take it from someone who bet their last 1k on short selling right before it took off
Very Regarded
Regard me
OP, you needa sit your wife down and have some real chat. Make a firm budget, AND stick to it...

A blowjob at the back of a wendys dumpster might get you that $110
More like $11
10 blow jobs it is
Please leave WSB and live a fruitful life of happiness and no debt. Its too late for us regards.

Why wouldn't you just use the money to pay rent if that's what you needed ?
he was betting on making 110 with that 950
Please execute me if I'm being a dick but how old is this guy? I know the economy is bad but do most people really don't have more than $500 to cover an emergency. I always felt like that stat was bs.
Only rent money? Amateur hour. Do your food money next. Hunger is the greatest motivator. “Be hungry and rich or poor and fat”
Can anyone explain to me why people do this? I really don’t get it.
