Thank you very much and God bless you.

And probably make Musk a trillionaire. No surprise Pocahontas is plenty mad. She's going to put on war paint in a minute. Chuckle.

I looked hard at trying to get in early on SPCX. My problem is the money that Gates, Bezos, and other rich azzes have to control regulations through Congress. Elon has got the juice but can NASA and others resist his momentum? I’ll wait a little while to see how this explodes. At 74 I won’t live long enough to probably know. If I was 25 I’d be all in and broke, I’m old with a little money and to few years to chase it. Maybe. Good luck everyone. Musk has a great shot at this, so we’ll see.

I’m same age as you. I’m amazed at what this company has done in a short amount of time. The sense of urgency is incredible. When they first started, I figured they were going nowhere and spaceflight was entirely the domain of governments. Boy, was I wrong. SpaceX launched 90% of all tonnage to orbit the past 12 months.

I have an order in for 15 shares, mainly to give to kids, SILs and grandson. I figure they can have fun with their shares watching them grow and pay attention to the company.

That’s what maybe means. If I do they won’t know it and be able to get it until the “Will” is settled. There’s more than that waiting but a little honest work never hurt anyone. Besides, I want to see how the government grift goes. Be safe.

Bingo! That’s what hubby and I are doing. We will buy some SpaceX stock but not right away. Three to six months down the road might be the best time to pick up a few shares.

Of course, it might also start sky-rocketing today and never drop back down to its original IPO pricing. If that happens, we will just kick ourselves in the butt and get in when we can. The grandkids will eventually benefit from it.

Those underwriting with entry subscription pricing day of IPO will cash in that day
It’s likely to skyrocket before settling back down

I had that privilege once on a few tech boom ipos

It’s like printing your own money

You have to determine when to bail that day

I saw some quad in an hour or two from open

Usually the market makers accumulate by 10 EST

Then the individuals rush in after being somewhat stymied by the major block buying

Usually it peels back by 2-3pm to around half of peak

But on occasion it closes at peak

This seems like a job for a Large Cap Growth or Total Stock market Index ETF.

I bought three shares. But I put a stupid limit at $135 because I thought that’s what the starting IPO was going to be. I believe somebody here said that. now I believe I’m not gonna get any because it’s probably gonna go higher than that. I made a huge mistake.
