    Perhaps I should start an investing community. I’m not much of a WSB, but investing can be worthwhile.

      WSB wasn’t about investing, though… it was about watching idiots lose their life savings in particularly stupid and amusing ways.

        Yeah, I’m not so interested in making a community like that. It is fun to watch people to do dumb things with their money, though.

          like the users were telling OP OF those posts, not to spend what they dont have, but the op dint listen and spent 100sk on a stock and lost it all, or only gained back a marginal amount. they just heard “dont spend”

      from what ive seen, visitng wsb sparingly, its a mix of rich people and trolls, when they lose like 500-750k in stocks, they act like nothing bad happened.

      I think a friendly “how to get started” community would be better than the big peepee energy of WSB.
