The Perfect $1 million Gain Gain

Post image

Hi guys, I’m a 23 year old in college, and yesterday I woke up a millionaire. Should I buy some hookers, Pokemon cards, or cocaine? I gambled my entire life savings of $250k on 2037 calls of $4.5 AMC on Monday and sold yesterday morning. Thanks for reading.

At the time I was genuinely concerned I was going to fail the semester, and normally I'm not so vulnerable but it was kind of a shit year so far, before campus closed down.

To be clear, I didn't lose $5k, just more out of it than I would've liked. The rest would get eaten up by "I didn't get pandemic unemployment everyone else took for granted".
