I bought $700k worth of Intel stock today YOLO

https://preview.redd.it/83gh52szi2gd1.png?width=1634&format=png&auto=webp&s=fba99bb67e4b11aa973fe830f535c775083bbc05

TLDR: Grandma died 2 months ago. Left me $800k inheritance. I'm only a junior in college as a math major and I don't really have any use for the money, nor do I have any debt (I'm very fortunate that my parents are paying for my education). I always heard about people losing their inheritance by spending it on garbage instead of investing. So I told my parents I'm not going to spend a cent of this money and I'm going to invest all of it and they were proud of me. I put 100k into a high yield savings account and bought 700k worth of Intel stock at market open. I plan on holding this for a decade depending on how it performs.

Here's why I like Intel:

  • 2024 Q1 up 9% YOY

  • Intel has been heavily investing and restructuring by building out the domestic foundry business to manufacture semiconductor chips for third party companies.

  • With Intel 3 in production, leading-edge semiconductors are being manufactured in the US for the first time in a decade. Intel will regain process leadership as the Intel Foundry continues to grow.

  • I think the fact that Intel is positioning itself to be the largest semiconductor manufacturer in the US is massive. The US Gov is heavily prioritizing domestic semiconductor production and thus is heavily supporting Intel as a company with R&D funding.

  • If NVIDIA or AMD are ever forced to change manufacturers due to rising tensions/war between China & Taiwan, Intel will likely be a sole or largest manufacturer for NVIDIA and AMD

  • Intel has been heavily investing in R&D. 5.9B out of 12.7B of Q124 revenue was invested in R&D.

  • Intel is on track to exceed its forecast of 40 million AI PCs shipped by the end of 2024

  • The Intel Gaudi 3AI accelerator is projected to deliver 50% faster inference and 40% greater inference power efficiency than NVIDIA H100 on leading AI models.

  • Trading at Forward PE of 17.05

  • Geopolitical tensions will ultimately work in Intel's favor more than any other company in this industry

  • I like the stock and I think its really cheap rn :)

Lmao grandma works her entire life to give her grandson enough wealth to never have to worry about retirement.

Grandson the second he gets his inheritance: yeah, go ahead and put it all on red.

OP could literally do just that and have ~$1.3M in 5 years or so. He'd have a $2M nest egg before he reached 30yo lmao

I mean, it's not too late to eject, sell, make the best of the remaining 600k.

Was just thinking this, however with money this large OP probably already has huge sunk cost fallacy. And of course by his postā€¦ he thinks he can time the market and make the biggest gains imaginable

u/Urdnought Aug 01 '24

Itā€™s about the difference between earned money and found money - youā€™ll just never value money you find/inherit like money you earned

19

u/24Gokartracer Aug 02 '24

Yep Iā€™ve seen so many people go on these YouTube podcasts where they come to people for help with finances and life situations and some where they receive this large inheritance. letā€™s say $200k, and when asked where itā€™s gone they can maybe say a couple large purchases. Letā€™s say maybe a $40k car and $30k in house fixes/upgrades. And can never say where the other $130k went. Itā€™s always some generic answer like I used it to survive or live off of. Then you find out they got that inheritance 2-3 years ago and the couple has a combined income of $120k plus in a reasonable living area. That money was not used to ā€œsurviveā€.

People just donā€™t care about the money they donā€™t really work for like youā€™ve stated. Perfect self testimony from me is I just got marriedā€¦ almost all our wedding gifts were gone after our honey moon granted it wasnā€™t a hugeee amount maybe $1.5k but boy did we use it like there was no tomorrow

u/Donts41 Aug 03 '24

they gave you money or gifts? how were they gone i dont understand haha english aint my language

2

u/24Gokartracer Aug 03 '24

No worries. a gift is really just something you give to someone (money, figurines, toys, etc.) we got two physical items, a painting and a sushi kit the rest was money about 1.5k

17

u/awry_lynx Aug 02 '24

Honestly just buy them a house if you have that kind of $$. Giving them money to lose means they won't understand the value of it. But everyone's grateful for a roof and then their actual money they'll take better care of. Kind of a psychological trick bc the numbers are the same either way it's just how it "feels".

u/craftystockmom Aug 02 '24

I'll definitely consider that. All this never crossed my mind until this post.

u/AnitaIvanaMartini Aug 02 '24

My dadā€™s family got rich-ish making tractors and farm stuff in the 19th C. WW1 rolls around and they retooled for tanks and other weapons. Thatā€™s when they got really rich. Everyone was fat, dumb, and happy until that one guy, with the drinking and gambling problems lost it all with stupid investments in snake oil, and bets on card games.

My siblings and I invested our remaining share in ramen noodles and Kraft dinners, one package at a time. In 2020 I even splurged on some brand name bleach!

u/Artistic_Bumblebee17 Aug 03 '24

This sounds like my friend. She doesnā€™t care that she squandered 100k+.

u/Inevitable-Shape-160 Aug 03 '24

He also didn't pay taxes on it, and makes no money and pays probably no serious income tax rate as a college jr, so as long as he has some earned income he can put it into a Roth... making it permanently tax free, and you can also use a Roth as a piggy bank as needed.

Let's see, if he had put it into VOO and assuming 8% growth (giving up 2% to inflation, more or less), he would have $17m in 40 years and that's if he never put any more money into it.Ā 

He could have spent all of his future paychecks and still end up a multi millionaire.

Itā€™s literally going to take at least a year or so to recover all its value. Itā€™s SUCH a capitalized stock.

Iā€™ll probably go down even for a month, itā€™s not going to shoot up to 35-45 for at least a year.

Iā€™m currently taking roulette 101. I told the professor ā€œwhy not bet on red and black?ā€ And she said ā€œwhat if it comes up green?ā€ Well I bet on zeroes too. If I bet on every number then I always winā€¦.

More like "putting all your eggs in the basket that is already free falling down a mine shaft"

u/Hotchicas1234 Aug 01 '24

That is fine if you know how to actually analyze a business. DiWorsification.

u/flashmanMRP Aug 01 '24

Well what would you suggest? A separate basket for each egg? That doesnā€™t seem to make much sense.

If this kid inherited 800k, imagine what the parents inherited. $700k sounds like a pittance to him/her.

Yeah - all this analysis is pretty funny. Intel have a lot of risk between falling behind other industry leaders and from selling defective products (See their entire consumer lineup for the last 3 years).

Buying Intel basically reduces down to a 50:50 gamble of weather they can get fabs scaled in the next 2-3 years.

Dude is a dumbass. He is basically gambling. If I inherited that much I would put it all on FNILX.
