the war began

yeh, that's true :) btw, I'm sure many did just that

Either I misunderstood the question, or you misunderstood what this project is about. All I consider is historical data. Based on this data and the dates entered, I calculate the r…

do you mean popular shares?

You are welcome:) This works as long as everything is good and stable, at least with the economy. But in the long run (decades), it still works. You just have to survive.

It's a great strategy as long as there's agreement between people and that the "S&P500" (paste your) means something :)

My brother is not a crypto guru, we just discussed about BTC. It was a philosophical conversation in the spirit of perhaps it will become an alternative to conventional money, then…

I spent 20 years of my adult life on a cold and calculating lifestyle (as you described), I can’t say that I was unhappy, but one morning I woke up and realized that everything tha…

Think of it as art :) It’s an interactive museum of missed opportunities. We all know we can't change the past, but it's strangely entertaining to calculate exactly how much a 2015…

Ah, the classic "99% of gamblers quit right before they win big" mindset! :) But honestly, your second point is the ultimate truth. Ignorance truly is bliss. The happiest people ar…

You are 100% right about survivorship bias. That's actually exactly why the calculator already supports a status "BULLET DODGED"!

yeah as Warren Buffett once said: "Our favorite holding period is forever".

You are 100% right about pre-2014 BTC. Any suggestion where to download trusted prices? Regarding the date format - it can really cause confusion. Let me explaine. The "calculator"…

149,000 mean 149000

Honestly, it's mostly just dark humor and a bit of financial "exposure therapy". Sometimes seeing the absurdly huge, multi-million dollar number makes the regret feel almost comica…

fixed, btw

I'm unsing Laravel. I think any framework you are familiar with will do. I'm using frameworks even for single page application, cuz you never know how it turned. I think the danger…

By the way, a "Reverse Mode" (calculating the initial stake needed to hit exactly $1M) is actually a brilliant idea. But to your underlying point - it's the hard truth. People ofte…

Haha, or maybe the flash drive got lost in the junk at home :) I would have sold it when I made X2 - good profit.

would you keep it till today?

Ouch, that San Jose townhome story is actual physical pain. WELCOME TO REALITY. IT’S EXPENSIVE.

if the system wrote $149 this mean $149 or you found a bug. Please let me know if found a bug.

I tracked every single daily expense for a few years, until I hit a point where I realized I already knew exactly where my money was going and how much I could realistically save. …

It's true. In my experience, you'll be able to evaluate the correctness of your actions today in about five years, when you have more data and results.

Thanks for the "zero", it really does matter in a calculator like this. Fair point on the shorting - I definitely prioritized retro drama over actual market mechanics there!
