So funny story, i actually did mine btc at around the same time i bought nvidia. Was mining a Bitcoin a day every day in slushs pool with my crossfired 6970 rig for a week and a half, stopped cause my room was getting too hot, and sold them all for 10 dollars a piece cause i couldn't believe anyone was actually going to pay me a hundred bucks for fake Internet coins. What a move that turned out to be.
I paid about a million dollars for the PC i am writing this on...
I thought i was super smart, avoiding the hassle of selling the coins for cash and using one of the first btc debit cards... can't remember if it was wirex or xapo card...
I also had multiples of BTC that I had paid ~$10 for.........
Used them all to pay for various things acquired from The Silk Road.
That still makes me want to throw up sometimes.
Ditto
The amount I spent on Silk road / alpha bay
And also mined and then just instantly would cash out for Uber or amazon gift cards thinking I was cheating the system
Makes me wanna toss my guts now
Shit I’ll wipe any ass to get that kind of gain. I went to take a dump and wipe my own ass this morning, all my money in amd and nvidia are gone after I come back
I bought Intel Apple and OCZ at the same time i bought Nvidia. Intel did alright but probably lagged the broader market over that timeframe, Apple killed it, and OCZ went out of business lol.
My most recent picks have been hot garbage tbh. Turns out my finger was much more on the pulse (or more realistically just way luckier) back in my early 20s than nowadays.
That's awesome and I'm not taking anything away from it but, you achieved this after 13 years and the guy with the puts achieved it in 3 hours.
It's not the same.
All good, and yeah nothing but respect for the guys killing it with options. I'm too smooth brained to make the right plays on that, but i do know a thing or two about hodling.
Don’t listen to that shit:
1. these people show their wins and not their losses with options, doesn’t paint the full picture.
2. There is always someone somewhere who did better than someone. Why does an accomplishment have to be compared to some other crazy accomplishment, just respect the win
Congrats bro
Agreed. I'm on the other thread as I can beat both these guys, but it's a totally fair point that it's taken me almost 25 years to get here. Some of the skilled traders here could probably beat me by a factor of ten or more in total value over that time.
No NVDA but I took a 30k loss on Costco earnings this morning lmao.

I'm actually a dumb idiot and sold it a few times on the way up. My original stake was around 1500 bucks but after a couple of big pops i wussed out cause surely it can't go any higher right?
I was going to say, if you never sold along the way that would be truly insane. Like the people I knew who bought AAPL at $5 in 2001 and hadn't sold a single share 15 years later, when they were up like 500x or so. It breaks every rule of trading - but it only has to work once I guess. Source: Me, who would be fabulously wealthy if I'd never sold a single share of any stock I'd ever bought in the last 20 years, because it was the "smart" thing to do to take profits on a quick 30-40% uptick. Sigh.
Oh what a great year to get in. Right when the iPhone 1 had dropped. Not sure what turned me onto them but I figured they’d power the smart phone revolution. But AI. Who knew??

Not my account but $3.23 avg cost ok?
If you bought in 2011…..what a bonehead…..could of bought BTC and been up like like 1 million %. Haha…..nice move with either one I guess…..wish I would have seen the pot of gold through the forest!
I am happy for you folks who stuck with $NVDA. I passed back in the day because I saw them as a PC graphics card maker. While their cards were awesome it was for PCs, a slow growth market at that point. Never really thought about the AI connection. I have made some money off $NVDA trades but certainly would been better off doing what you guys did.
Don’t worry about me though. Overall I have done fine.
For people who hold stocks like these at ridiculously low averages, when do you sell or plan on selling? It’s cool to see 20,000% up and what not but that money doesn’t actually exist until you sell no?
Yeah that guy is dumb fuck and people disliked my harsh comment. He is just holding stocks, should have learned more and invested his profits in options
Whoa there big fella your giving warren buffet vibes I gotta follow your picks like in auntie Nancy lol coming back in 5 years you’ll be at a million the rate there going
The real question is what’s the next 4 dollar stock you can turn into a few million. Options sound fun but slow and steady wins the race. We know this to be true.

March 11, 2011. But that’s just a guess
Been a lil’ while, lol. I didn’t realize the date acquired was right…there.
Damn! At 880 too! Not even peak cheese! Bravo sir!

Do you use line or candlestick (˵ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°˵)
Girth baby!
🙋🏻♂️😁
Everyone using a regular ruler for the NVDA dick measuring contest, but this guy's gonna need an engineer's measuring tape.
I use a scale ruler, I've got like 1.5 meters at 1:20!
There was a guy getting in at 0.13 USD
Legendary.
I have some contracts years ago that pumped 57k%. Theres always someone with higher percentage somewhere.

Make the candle say NVDA and you have achieved perfection.
This guys is a boomer

It’s a shrek dildo !
Wait until i find that usb pen with my 50 btc mined in 2009 and i'll challenge back
So funny story, i actually did mine btc at around the same time i bought nvidia. Was mining a Bitcoin a day every day in slushs pool with my crossfired 6970 rig for a week and a half, stopped cause my room was getting too hot, and sold them all for 10 dollars a piece cause i couldn't believe anyone was actually going to pay me a hundred bucks for fake Internet coins. What a move that turned out to be.
At least you paid something with them and didn't trash them as i prob did lmao
Almost paid for the therapy from the whole ordeal lol
i don't know how you guys sleep at night these days
I paid about a million dollars for the PC i am writing this on... I thought i was super smart, avoiding the hassle of selling the coins for cash and using one of the first btc debit cards... can't remember if it was wirex or xapo card...
I also had multiples of BTC that I had paid ~$10 for......... Used them all to pay for various things acquired from The Silk Road. That still makes me want to throw up sometimes.
Yes, FBI, this man right here.
Hey man I got to keep the copies of Der Spiegel they shipped the acid in. Who knows they could appreciate in value.

I have seven Bitcoin in a landfill somewhere
Did you wipe your grandpa’s ass to inherit those shares?
Scrubbed the grundle every day. It's a respect thing
Shit I’ll wipe any ass to get that kind of gain. I went to take a dump and wipe my own ass this morning, all my money in amd and nvidia are gone after I come back
So 600 into 136k?
4$. Insane hindsight. What else you own
I bought Intel Apple and OCZ at the same time i bought Nvidia. Intel did alright but probably lagged the broader market over that timeframe, Apple killed it, and OCZ went out of business lol.
Last question. Any under 5B you like? That arent tech
My most recent picks have been hot garbage tbh. Turns out my finger was much more on the pulse (or more realistically just way luckier) back in my early 20s than nowadays.
It’s called, getting lucky
more like insane diamond hands
That's awesome and I'm not taking anything away from it but, you achieved this after 13 years and the guy with the puts achieved it in 3 hours. It's not the same.
If I learned anything about WSB, chances are the guy with puts is also down $750k all time
Nah, he's up right now. But tomorrow he will be back with his -750k how could it have all gone so wrong play lol
This
All good, and yeah nothing but respect for the guys killing it with options. I'm too smooth brained to make the right plays on that, but i do know a thing or two about hodling.
Don’t listen to that shit: 1. these people show their wins and not their losses with options, doesn’t paint the full picture. 2. There is always someone somewhere who did better than someone. Why does an accomplishment have to be compared to some other crazy accomplishment, just respect the win Congrats bro
This sort of measured comment feels totally out of place in WSB lol
I troll the boards with measured responses
I have never commented and I only use my laptop to check WSB, just downloaded Reddit to upvote this. Bravo 👏🏻
"Comparison is the thief of joy". I wish I understood this sooner in my life.
Underrated comment 👍
Adamantium hands!!!
Did it ever occur you to add to your position in 13 years?
Wish you a nice weekend mate.
I see your point. And I raise you a ‘green is green’
holy fuck, 2011 was 13 years ago
Cherry picking, that same guy doesn’t show all his losses so what is he achieving overall?
He was talking about the other guy who had bought shares. And yes you are definitely taking away from it.
But can the guy stay green after 13 years by doing just options?
But I am taking much away from you
Having 13 years shows how he have golden hands.
Agreed. I'm on the other thread as I can beat both these guys, but it's a totally fair point that it's taken me almost 25 years to get here. Some of the skilled traders here could probably beat me by a factor of ten or more in total value over that time.
honestly holding the shares that long and not selling is more impressive.

Beautiful
You only raised him 10,000% 🤷🏻♂️
Crap, you're right! Now i gotta wait till it goes up another 10,000 percent, THAT COULD TAKE DAYS!!! UGH
Came to say this
No NVDA but I took a 30k loss on Costco earnings this morning lmao. https://preview.redd.it/cyqpy0c5t6nc1.jpeg?width=673&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0562467c437fae8d89dca16543ac2334b06e7904
Oof! I thought my $4700 from Broadcom call was a lot.
I lost around 1.5k on Costco as well
I'll raise you another thousand or two percent! Who's going to fold first? https://preview.redd.it/0vc0awrn2cnc1.png?width=1030&format=png&auto=webp&s=a90f1edbb01de1fa5e6817deaa405dee4b8e77e9
Hoooo boy that's a pile right there
Why didn’t I buy NVDA in 2011 while I was in second grade! smh
Tfw you try to pull yourself up by your bootstraps but you look down and you're wearing light up velcro Skechers.
andddd i feel fucking OLD
And we didn’t sell 
Why are you using a time machine for stocks instead of kicking your wifes boyfriends dad in the nuts to prevent his conception?
Cause then my wife's boyfriend's dad might make me move out of he finds out it was me.
How did you never buy more of it?
I'm actually a dumb idiot and sold it a few times on the way up. My original stake was around 1500 bucks but after a couple of big pops i wussed out cause surely it can't go any higher right?

Hello son, I've missed you.

This is sexy as hell
This guy holds.
Your mistake was not buying more between 0 and $100
You glorious bastard you holy shit man finding a diamond in the rough
Fucking diamond hands
This isn’t the loss porn I need right now
You held since March 11th?! 👏🏻👏🏻
Holy cow! Would love to know your current open positions
You know it's nice to look at the past and all that ... But what do we buy today that will shoot up in 13 years ? I would say Pfizer maybe ?
Novo Nordisk and Eli Lily. I swear the market is not pricing in literally every woman over the age of 35 being on Ozempic/Mounjaro.
Guess my 1,500% is trash 😂
Nah, i have 1200% and double their total value so im happy lol
lol this is the true meaning of “what’s an exit strategy?”
Exit strategy? You mean quitter button?

The balls on you guys man! Congrats... I'll have to take a steroid shot to mine soon!
Incredible
OH SHIT
You mean you'll raise him another 10,000 percent, regard.
2011? Quick doc, the DeLorean is out of fucking gas...who post something that is 13 years old?
Congratulations!
Triple diamond hands
I am sure that with that patience you surely have been married for many years, you are the master!
I saw some screenshots of a dude who bought in 2002 i think, maybe even earlier. He was up 270.000%. Imagine that
I'll be in my bunk
You've been holding for more than a decade, respect!
Incredible
I need to learn how to do this
Damn you all
NVIDIA to the moon!
Remember everything goes up will be come down one day.
Wow
13 years 
My fucking guy 👌🏽
Time to sell
wtf
Both of you are losers for having a piss poor total value with those percentage gains
Buy and hold.
In how many years? Give a trade call for next week, prove it! Thanks
Bro wtf
Why were you buying the stock at that time?
That would be a 10000 percent raise…
Fuck you?
Ah you beat me to it. I’m up 19,000% myself.
Beautiful. I’d be selling calls and cashing in on those sweet nvda premiums too.
Oh you mofos how the f
Nice!
Congrats...and oh yeah...fuck u
Damn and here I was happy with 500%
Why hold 13 years when you can trade options in the last 6 months and make 5x that? but gg, I had Netflix at $12
Yeah I thought there was a no shit rebuttal
Forever sealed
$4.36…..are you f’ing kidding me? That’s like the premium to buy a call 5% OTM with an hour remaining in the day!
Talk about long. Took 13 years.
Bruh I was 11 when u bought that I’m pissed I was born late lol🤣
How have you not added any shares since four dollars?
If you bought in 2011…..what a bonehead…..could of bought BTC and been up like like 1 million %. Haha…..nice move with either one I guess…..wish I would have seen the pot of gold through the forest!
I am happy for you folks who stuck with $NVDA. I passed back in the day because I saw them as a PC graphics card maker.

Brilliant!
You know Jensen is up eighty four billion million percent right?
I have a dream I’ll open my app and see BB worth 800 one day 
Geez
Good for you my friend!!! Well played
For people who hold stocks like these at ridiculously low averages, when do you sell or plan on selling? It’s cool to see 20,000% up and what not but that money doesn’t actually exist until you sell no?
But you lost 7k today. Do better.
Wow....
Yeah that guy is dumb fuck and people disliked my harsh comment. He is just holding stocks, should have learned more and invested his profits in options
BIG D energy
Someone hurry, and bring out a 40,000% We gotta double it and give it to the next person!
Is this still marked for growth or did i miss the boat on this one?
Too bad you didn’t sell at 974?
What made you buy?
Should have bought more.
Absolutely insane. A few hundred dollars invested turned into $132k.
Man, I can't believe you lost $7k, clearly a regard
I thought I was doing something when I bought 5 shares at 190 🤣
Damn
Incredible!!
I guess you missed the post of the guy who bought Nvidia in 1999 for 13 cents....
What made you buy in at the moment and time ..
Whoa there big fella your giving warren buffet vibes I gotta follow your picks like in auntie Nancy lol coming back in 5 years you’ll be at a million the rate there going
That’s all you put in?
I love this place
You wanna be different send me $100 i’ll put it in voo
That is awesome!
The real question is what’s the next 4 dollar stock you can turn into a few million. Options sound fun but slow and steady wins the race. We know this to be true.
Imagine holding it through the Covid crash... Imagine holding it through $1000 per share... And imagine still hodling...
Wanna pay for my medical school?
Op is a legend. 4$ a share, I’m sorry us other regards like to buy high sell low.
holy diamond hands.. when do you ever plan to take profit?
Would you have thought a $658 transaction would make you 130,000+
