Re: Who\'s right - help me settle a bet with gf, w/ poll w/o mspaint
38 people here said not to sell. 38 men. 38 men who presumably came to this website at least originally because they played poker.
So, yeah, pretty dumb. But TOTALLY standard. |

But you would have to take a loss on your holdings, you don't get rich by taking losses. Better to wait until it gets to your purchase price before you sell it Agree or disagree? [/ QUOTE ] It's almost the opposite actually. You get a tax break by realizing a loss, and don't need to pay taxes on a gain until you sell. The question here isn't if you should take a gain or loss on your investment, it's if you can find a better investment than ABC. If someone wants to tell me where I can beat a 100% return within a few minutes I'd love to here it. |

[ QUOTE ] Now she angleshoots me by saying OOT isn't representative, what's my next move OOT [/ QUOTE ] Wrap this up, and let her see the $19.99 price tag Then grab it and start to beat her violently over the head with it. Tell her you'll give her the book and stop doing it for $25. Either she'll realize that sometimes the market value of something is different than the purchase price or she dies with her last words being, "but then I'll be paying more than its wooooorth!!!!!" [/ QUOTE ] This should srsly be your next move. I suppose you could make it work without beating her with it if you must tho. But if she still doesnt catch on then i'd be worried |

Re: Who\'s right - help me settle a bet with gf, w/ poll w/o mspaint
[censored] you people are noobs.
Sell the stock to the cult member. Buy one call option contract at $20 for a months or two out. Deduct the loss on your taxes. * $3800 cash money in your pocket for hookers and blow * the ability to get the stock back at $20 in case there is sudden upward movement in the price so you can't get screwed by the timing of your sale * another $2k in savings on your tax bill * no downside |
