DJT stock

Up to $44.52 so far today...

Most people of "means" like Anti, you would think would be against giving 44% of their massive wealth to the government

This has nothing to do with the topic, and I'll never understand how you think you can make fun of me for making wise financial decisions You've had plenty of chances to just listen to me and make money, it's not my fault that you don't.

I've also made no comments on the 2025 tax plan, so I don't know you're implying that I've said anything about supporting it.

Regardless, right now a short term capital gain is taxes as ordinary income, ranging from 10% to 37%. Long term capital gains are taxed at 0%, 15%, or 20%.

Best I can tell, the plan is to raise that top rate by 1.2 points. It only apply to people with an income over $1 million and an investment income over $400,000.


My retirement plan is to have a portfolio worth over $1 million, and then I can comfortably pay myself about $100,000 a year for the rest of my life. My tax rate on that would be 15%... compared to the 24% tax rate if you make $100,000 from a job.

I'm not going to complain about a 40% reduction in taxes...

Even better, my social security would cover the taxes entirely

I plan to sell the DJT stock before the election, though, so if it makes money it will be a short term gain... so higher taxes. But if I invest $10,000 in something, sell it for $100,000, and pay $20,000 in taxes for it, I still pocketed $70,000...

f*xxy, you will never understand how some people are willing to give up some of their wealth for the benefit of the not so well off. You have a disease that prevents you from doing so it's called SELFISHNESS!

If that were true then you should have been able to prove it by now. But neither you nor your ilk have ever been able to show a single lie that I've ever said on here.

And I showed you a screenshot on April 12... second page of this very thread.

Which proves that I'm not a liar, you're just... well, a fool and a troll.

You're such a effing liar you've probably never owned a single share of anything in your life.

Closed at $38.49 today!

I bought in on April 8 at $37.17... it took 2 weeks, but I'm finally making a profit

Up 9.61% today, closed at $36.38... almost back to where I bought it.

If it does the same thing next week, I'll be pretty tickled

Trump's not in the habit of listening to advice, but he must have heeded P.T. Barnum albeit posthumously. "There's a sucker born every minute."

You really should have known anything with associated with Trump is going to fail.

If you had doubled down yesterday in the mid twenties you could have gotten out today pretty much unscathed.

Tell us the truth, were you drunk when you bought this stock? Or was it mushrooms?

antithesis

Closed today up 25.72%

I bought in at $37.17 but it dropped all the way down to $22.84! Now it's back up to $33.19, though, so not too far below where I bought it. I still think it will skyrocket through November, so I guess I'm in it for the long haul...

You're right, Uno, but this has nothing to do with his failures as a CEO. This one is about foreign nations funneling money to him in an attempt to get him in office again... they're paying for his support.

I don't know if it will work, but there's no reason that we shouldn't all make a little money off of it!

Seems like you're better at losing it...

You think so? It was up 15.59% yesterday, and up 18.88% again today with an hour left to go.

Literally the definition of business failure...

Another ignorant muttt who is stuck in little wilkes co. who thinks someone who owns several hundred different pieces of property thinks a half dozen filings of bankruptcies over forty years mean that person is a failure at business.

No one could have seen this coming a mile away. Nobody!

Except for those of us who have witnessed the myriad of Trump bankruptcies over the last 40 years.

I don't buy stock to reward the industries I like, I buy it to make money.

I know several people with money and they sure aren't keyboard jockeys like Anti

"It's all about the money" with Anti, let that sink in for a minute......

And remember it the next time she gets on her high horse

DJT had a good day, +15.59%! Hopefully that means that it bottomed out


I don't know why you of all people would buy DJT. I wouldn't buy Joe Biden stock for a nickel a share.

It's all about the money, DB. I own stock in oil companies and alternative fuels. I own stock in Wal*mart, even though I think they're destroying America and I haven't stepped foot in one in 15 years. I own stock in a marijuana ETF, even though I've never smoked and never intend to.

I don't buy stock to reward the industries I like, I buy it to make money.

Do I think that DJT stock is strictly being used to funnel money illegally to Trump? Absolutely. Will that belief stop me from trying to make money on it? Absolutely not.
