    I’m in for 9 shares to take me to the moon.
The memes on the subreddit are insane. They post ridiculous videos, images, and gain and loss images from various trading apps.

    I’ve always wanted a gorilla for pet. I was going to post a pic of a certain woman, but don't want to get kicked off FR.

    It’s all good. Pics of Big Mike are always meant with howls of derision here and I haven’t seen anyone booted for posted one. I could be wrong, but it will still be fun. Try it.

    Yes, I read that today. I don’t know what it means, LOL, as I’m very new to this stuff and trying to get caught up. I am only using my play money, so I am being safe while I learn.
It’s very complex, isn’t it?

    GameStop stock got smacked down today, but other meme stonks like AMC, BBBY and KOSS did well. 
I am in RBLX, which went public last week and which has great potential.

    I thought the Federal government already took care of wild gorillas. Doesn't seem to be an endangered species.

    I tried to follow along after I had a couple of adult beverages, it was a delightful hot mess!
