re: Lots of smoke about lane leaving OM

Posted by oneg8rh8r on 11/14/25 at 12:10 am to
I don't even know who I want at this point.

LK is a fool if he leaves OM for UF or LSU, both schools have proven they have VERY short leashes and crazy expectations and are proving they are a financial disaster to deal with. Lane hasn't proven anything YET and he could go from the hottest coach on the market where he is able to force OM's hand to do just about anything to really screwing it up in a few years if he doesn't win a NC at LSU or UF. All risk, very little chance for reward.....and he would have to sustain it.

I love LSU, but I think their recent antics are KILLING any chance of a great coach taking a risk with this shite show.
Market makers create a little drama, weak hands sell good positions, and smart people buy the micro dips.

If you are smart, DCA into good ETF's or stocks you plan to own regardless of what happens in the short term. Keep 15-20% in something very low risk and available in the event of a huge sell off. Rinse and Repeat.

If you are nearing retirement, do the same thing but in ETF's that pay good dividends.
OL needs to ball out, both in run support and pass protection. If we get that, we will win.

They don't have to be miracle workers, but make creases for run lanes and give our QB's 2.75 seconds.

It was on OK purchase, they should have picked expiration date of 1/15/27

I got leap options on AMZN. Can't wait to see the value tomorrow.

I've never done that before, I'll look into it.

All the Leap Call Options I have purchased in the past few months have all had 1/15/27 expirations, with the exception of a few that only went out to mid 2026. When purchased I buy strikes that are in the money and have a Delta of approximately .7 (typically about 10-15% less than market price), make sure there is open interest, volume and IV.

The price for 1 contract usually cost about 20-25% of buying 100 shares.

Find good stocks or ETF's and wait for crappy days and get good entry points.

I own multiples of these:

QQQ
OEF
NVDA
PLTR
Hood
CRM
SOFI
FBTC
AMD
Google
AMZN
BTQ
Cake
CRCL
UUUU
LAR
NVTS
RCAT
NB

I own blocks of 100 shares on the big ones and sell covered calls on those as well.


Still think Tesla is a car company, huh?

I have a few $10 Leap options for 1/15/27.

re: I can sell on ex date right?

Posted by oneg8rh8r on 10/22/25 at 10:24 am to
I am going to attempt to do it at the beginning of premarket on the Ex Date with a few shares just to see if it counts.
OEF or QQQ

If you are a big fan of the S&P, OEF only invest in the top 100, not the bottom 400.
QQQI (14%), SPYI (12%), BTCI (28%) annual returns

I'd do 33% each; @ 100K investment ~ QQQI $4600, SPYI $3650, BTCI $9240 for about $17500 or 17.5%

if you have a liking for BTC I'd lean more into the BTCI.
Believe it or not, there are quite a few places in Jacksonville, FL that are very similar, houses on water, quick trip to blue water, and fishing in the back yard.
You guys would lose your $hit when I show you what I'm leaving, but weather, politics and other are simply too much.
Well, after spending months searching and looking around, I'm not sure exactly what we are doing, :rotflmao:, but Louisiana as a whole has seemed to remove itself from the list.

The income taxes, property taxes and all different flavors of insurance required, etc. have all played part in this unfortunate decision.

OL NEEDS TO BE OUR PRIORITY

Posted by oneg8rh8r on 9/22/25 at 7:38 pm
We need to go buy the best OL money can buy this offseason.
Back story.

I grew up in LaPlace and spent a lot of time in Eden Isles as my grandparents home was one of the first. I used to walk the entire neighborhood bass fishing the bulkhead and the old golf course that is no longer there.
