(1,873 posts)Penny stocks were the big thing then. If you picked the right vehicle you were on easy street, all it took was hitting the right stock once and getting out, but precious few hit the right stock, and fewer still moved out once theyd made a pile.
I never invested then, but I watched my buddies, and I kept an eye on some of the stocks they told me I was a fool for not buying. 99 out 100 either folded or languished, but I did see one (just one) guy actually hit his stock.
I think it should be obvious what and who this stock was intended to enrich, and there might be a few other people lucky enough to make a little change. In my entire life I dont think Ive seen a stock so susceptible to manipulation. I dont think theres enough money in the world to make it explode the way theyre talking about.
There was a subreddit a few years back titled Herman Cain is calling. Theyd post the anti vax pages these idiots dying of Covid had been pasting onto their fb pages, then add the gofundme pleas for the same people once they contracted Covid, and then the obituary when the inevitable came. It got a little out of hand with the grave dancing and the subreddit was pulled. Id love for someone to start a new subreddit with all these magat investors in the run up to their bankruptcy filings. Schadenfreude city, and you can put me on a train.
