Crazy how the vote is a month away and then results of that vote is another month. Going to be a crazy ~60 days. Can't imagine the other news that might trickle out or be held back until that is complete.



Would be awesome to confirm the redomicile and subsequently announce a partnership with Tesla/SpaceX or with a handful of battery companies

ETA: my shares went on loan this morning. I really don't understand short sellers. How do they see value in trading against such headwinds?

re: High-quality luggage

I travel a lot. 12-24 weeks a year all on planes.

I had an eye opening experience in 2018. Went to china for a manufacturing expose, ALL and I mean ALL of luggage you see is made in the same province of china. Louis Vuitton, Goyard, Gucci, Rimowa, Riggs, Tumi, Samsonite- all those internal parts come from the same 5-6 manufacturers in china just have a different skin/shell. I have a $100 bag from Amazon that has lasted me 4 years and I’ll get another one when it dies. Zero reason to pay for quality luggage. My wife wants that away luggage and I chuckled and said it’s the same as the stuff you see at TJ Maxx just a different molding and they forced a battery pack you don’t need into it.

Consult your tax professional but in simpler terms, your tax savings bumped you from a base model to LP model Lambo.

What brokerage do you use? There is a section within Fidelity that goes over "loaned securities"

FYI - All of my shares from three separate accounts were returned today and the collateral was withdrawn.

Correct. My staff think of our AI (claude) as a way to clean up a question set and come to me with a more refined question or finished product. It has saved us significant amounts of time building out deliverables but the primary time saver have been filtering out questions that consume two or more staff members time.

In our use case, AI is no different than an abacus turning into a calculator turning into an excel spreadsheet. Has helped my staff become significantly more efficient.

re: Best way to launder money?

Restaurant, next to a laundry mat, next to a convenience/vape store, and then a tire shop.

Depending the amount of cash you’re moving you need heavy cash based businesses. If you’re moving 1-2M a year the above is pretty easy but if your talking Marty Byrd/Walter White levels of cash, moving 50+m a year would require an enormous network of businesses or casino(s). As exampled by Pollos Hermanos and Missouri Belle.

I was in the line at the bank for some dumb reason and an old lady had probably 5-6k in cash/coins and said it was from her car washes. That could be an easy business but very capex/asset heavy.

Damn, wonder what color lambo she got.

But I’m somewhat curious if this is related to the re domicile/uplisting. I wonder if the option only can be exercised on the Canadian exchange and then ported to the US exchange. Re: she has to own the shares or else they go worthless. I also don’t know how many remaining options she has so she just might be getting a new lambo or down payment on a pad in ATX.

I find it interesting that your shares go in/out of loan. A large chunk of mine have been loaned out for was looks like a few months (given the prior months accrual that have been paid out.)
There are a ton of these

Stats make sense to an extent here but unless we see what the total population looks like, this is a huge swing in terms of voting.
