    Perhaps I should start an investing community. I’m not much of a WSB, but investing can be worthwhile.

      I think a friendly “how to get started” community would be better than the big peepee energy of WSB.

        Itll never be as useful as wsb was precovid, whenever they removed fds and any mention of what they meant is around the time that sub stopped being useful

      WSB wasn’t about investing, though… it was about watching idiots lose their life savings in particularly stupid and amusing ways.

        Yeah, I’m not so interested in making a community like that. It is fun to watch people to do dumb things with their money, though.

          like the users were telling OP OF those posts, not to spend what they dont have, but the op dint listen and spent 100sk on a stock and lost it all, or only gained back a marginal amount. they just heard “dont spend”
