    You could start a sports newspaper in Boston in 2003 where you're sick of all the local sports coverage being ass kissers...and then buy a bunch of distribution boxes on your credit card, circulate 25K papers...Sell Ads...Start advertising college parties in the paper and then hit into the underground world of raves...Host a bunch of "Black Out" parties...Get in early on Fantasy SPorts ads and predictions...
    Re-invest in your product, branch out into podcasts...
    Get 51% bought out in 2016...
    Reinvest, buy back interests in your company...
    AND THEN...
    On January 29, 2020, it was announced that Penn National Gaming had purchased a 36% stake in Barstool Sports for $163 million, giving the company a valuation of $450 million. In three years, Penn National, with a market value of roughly $3 billion, will increase its stake to around 50% for a payment of $62 million. Penn National and Barstool have options that kick in then that would increase the casino company's stake to control or full ownership, based on fair market value at the time.[18] Following the sale, The Chernin Group maintained a 36% stake in the company.

    He's made at least $160M cash on his ownership...not including outstanding stocks... PENN Went as low as $7 post covid dip...and is now $56...he's never stopped buying his own stock and they will in a year have a MASSIVE online gambling portal crossed over with sports wagering and fantasy sports...

    On close today I took a real negative Nancy position...bought 10 of the Ford $7 23oct puts for $0.45. I expect it to cycle back towards $6 dollars again by October. I also have $45 NKLA puts. I just don't believe any of these day jumps on news will last in this market. Yes I was sweating it when it got to $54 but it's already back undr $50 at close and I wouldn't be surprised to see it open tomorrow in the $47's or below

    I’m probably gonna be down 40K on my 401K blue chip stocks tomorrow, had to happen after rising so much in a week, 120k rise since COVID. Not a bubble burst though, that would mean rational investors took over from the Robinhoods:D

    The Robinhood crowd is learning that markets go down as well as up. Hope none of them get in too much trouble with this.

    Same here some will do well for a while, others not, over time we’ll it’s a gamble. I let mine ride usually but did rebalance last week near the peak to move some of my blue chip gains over to my Intermediate bonds funds. After all those gains you just knew some drop was coming. This happens often with most all the stocks, especially the blue chips.

    I was mainly talking about the ones who used margin as prices went nowhere but up. I’m sure there were plenty.

    As long as the Feds let people short stocks,etc the market will be a mess. I wish they would put a stop to that, either buy the stock or don’t. Then the market would be based more in sound financial reality, Yields would matter, P/E ratio would matter, like they once did because they meant something.

    that's a little bit ridiculous....
    You can't buy if no one is selling.
    Do all stocks just go up all the time in your utopia? o_O
