In 2009 I had 13k AMD shares at an average cost basis of $2.12.

I sold them in 2011 for ~$8/share.

Those shares are worth around $1.5M today.

I once got a reddit DM from a guy offering to be my sugar daddy. All I had to do was give up family, friends, hobbies, career, move in with him and have his babies. He assured me I would want for nothing. I turned him down, but I was just a simple "yes" away from being so wealthy and happy. He was also highly complimentary of my looks, despite never seeing even a photo of me, so I know he wasn't shallow.

Edit: ok, that's all a lie. I got like 6 DMs like this. And that's when I turned direct messaging off for my reddit account.

Well, he didn't assure me he was 6 foot or taller, ofc. Us ladies be wanting our 6-6-6 men.

Six feet or taller, six-pack abs, six-figure salary or GTFO.
