Have you thought of having billionaire parents?

[-] MagnificentSteiner@lemmy.zip 15 points 3 weeks ago

Steal it. That's the only way to become a billionaire.

At this point it might not be the worst idea to bet against Nvidia or OpenAI, if you can do it at the perfect moment.

Lol..... Predicting the stock market? That thing that everyone has tried to do and no one has ever been successful at?

Warren Buffet came close, by virtue of investing in stocks based on the quality of a company's product and the brand loyalty of their customers. The sad thing is this was considered a novel and innovative method of investing and didn't really catch on despite him becoming a hundred-billionaire through this strategy.

The problem is most people don't want to be hundred billionaires in 20 years, they want to be 10 millionaires by the end of the month. To do that you don't go for great products, you go for good products you can make sound great to other people and hope other people are stupider than you.

ChatGPT is helping me short stock right now.

The problem with this is unfortunately that if you miss the perfect moment you're in for a catastrophic loss. If you're not an insider it's not worth the risk. We all know it's going to happen, but it's near impossible to predict when, from the outside. Those companies could manage to keep themselves alive in a financial circlejerk for a long time and the current environment of complete lawlessness in the US does not help in making it predictable either.

I would agree with a bet against OpenAI, but not Nvidia.

Assuming you have money to do that at all.

Depending on your needs and style of living, single-digit-million(s) already can do it. Risk-free at 2-5% or risky with >10%. Or, the wiser approach: 50/50

Work is stupid and boring. But what I always see with people: they earn 1k more a month and spend 1k more a month. I've seen people complaining about having no money left to spend, while their lifestyle already is at 10k/month.

Long story short: save, invest, rinse repeat. Stop trying to impress others with your "rich" lifestyle.

You could try divorcing Jeff Bezos.

Have you thought about massive insurance fraud?

[-] petersr@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

It is only illegal if you get caught.

Bedbug bait. No one has figured it out yet, and if you did EVERY exterminator on the planet would instantly start buying the stuff.

I suspect that some sort of poison that emits CO2 would be your starting point.
