Did you ever come to understand how arbitrary your own individual investment return is considered?

I'm down .47% YTD. Almost clawed all the way back!

This approximates the YTD return of S&P - good job

Pretty sure everyone who isn’t a bitch said it was going to go back up.

Especially after the tariff war didn't actually happen.

Remember when ppl here tried to pretend it was “main streets turn”???

In a dim-lit room where cobwebs cling,
Beneath the house where robins sing,
There dwells a man both sly and meek—
A ghost online, a hermit geek.

His name? Well, no one knows for sure,
But he calls himself, with mystic lure,
FriendofBaruch, wise and bold,
A trader rich, or so he told.

He dwells below his mother’s floor,
Mid stacks of books and Mountain Dew lore,
With mirrors turned to dodge the truth
That time has stolen all his youth.

But on Tiger Droppings, he’s a king,
He types of yachts and Vegas bling,
Of deals he closed, of stocks that soared,
Of women swooned and champagne poured.

Aviators grace his pixel face,
He shaves ten years without a trace.
A crypto wizard, gym-built frame—
Or so he crafts his phantom name.

But silence rules his basement lair,
Save for the hum of filtered air,
And Mom above, with trembling grace,
Leaves dinner trays outside his space.

No friends to call, no hands to hold,
No wealth but tales so often told,
Yet nightly still, behind the screen,
He lives the man he’s never been.

So raise a glass—of Diet Rite—
For FriendofBaruch, king of night,
A legend forged in web-born fog,
The bard of posts, the basement’s cog.

And maybe, just beneath the jest,
There lies a man who tried his best.
