It pains me to think about it but buying 10,000 shrs of SIG and CZR when they were both $5/shr in 2020, would've created life changing wealth.
I think there were at least a handful of us that accumulated five figures shares of NIO a couple of years ago when it was in the $2-5 range. In hindsight there were so many opportunities for long term accumulation from Q4 2018 to Q1/2 2020. Heck, you could be 3-4x just buying the biggest company in the world!
Side note, AAPL is very very extended on the weekly and monthly long term charts. Throughout this long running bull market, it has reconnected every 2-4 years with the 50 month SMA and 200 week SMA. Those are both <$90 right now but rising. If you zoom out the technicals say it is due for a correction to the mean which is around $100. That would carry SPX down to a 20+% correction. Decent chance that happens this year. But there is a very plausible scenario where the crazy (and perceived "safe") money made in AAPL/SPX now just rotates back to growth/momentum that has been hit with 50+% draw downs over the past year. Musical chairs....
Pardon my bit of rambling on there... carry on.
If this post is on the B&I forum, lighten up it's just money!
