BBBY 🐳 FINAL UPDATE : 2M (3.2M net) —> 5.4M —> 2.1M. NET LOSS ~1.1M

I was wrong.

I am out. Yes, I lost big.

It has been an honor to yolo with you.

For the first time, I issued a trade AH through a broker on the phone. It was somewhat surreal. It’s messed up my summary a little but I will lose somewhere around 800k over the past two weeks and 1.2M over the bast week related to BBBY.

I peaked at 6M account value, I only have a screenshot of 5.4.

My approach has been to prioritizing being right, not early or ahead. That has served me well. However, if you are wrong, it also applies. I hope those still holding are not completely wiped out. Maybe positive news comes, maybe something happens, maybe the shorts themselves double down. Maybe I’m leaving early. But I enter when I know I’m right, and I leave when I know I was wrong. This game isn’t about feelings. It’s about up and down.

I was right about the squeeze and the momentum up to 6M. I called a down Wed / Thursday and was bullish at close, before the AH disaster. I was wrong about RC. All he had to do was stay out of the way. We were blown up at the launchpad. RC has sold his reputation at market. Only he knows if it was worth it.

Yes I felt some of the normal emotions - betrayal, humiliation, despair. But I make the best decision I can and live with the consequences. That won’t change.

It seems we have lost this war. They threw everything at this, and even recruited the top betrayal at the 11th hour. We threw everything we had from retail investors across the world. It reads like a movie script, really unimaginable stuff. That happens.

It’s fine to lose a trade. Don’t lose your hope. It’s fine to lose on a BBBY bet. Don’t lose the bet on yourself. My dream is 10M. It was within reach, which would have seemed unimaginable just two weeks ago. I will get there. You can too.

I am actually really a regular guy. If you saw me on the street you wouldnt think twice. I could buy a Lambo now; I drive an inexpensive SUV with over 100k miles. This loss really does hurt. But I will be fine. I started small, worked my way up, and I will come back stronger and with more motivation.

Feel free to dance on my grave. The “I told you so’s”, “Should have sold,l” and much worse, I can take it. From where I have been to where I am now, I developed a thick skin and resolve.

But there was real damage done today, real scars, to people who likely work hard just to keep up with the bills. Many are underwater, and often desperate. Give some words of encouragement if you can, even if you were on the other side. Heads up, everyone. Big Girls don’t cry.

Seriously though - Take solace in the little things. I took a walk. I took a shower. My 2yr old thinks I’m still funny. The coffee maker still works. Life goes on.

I’m not the first to say it, but when Wall Street gets wiped out, they get a bail out. When Main Street does, we pick up extra shifts. Honestly, that’s what I will do essentially. I’ll work a little extra, put in some OT, build back up. I’ve been at zero before. I’m way ahead of that time still.

Losers of wars don’t get to dictate terms. But I’ll leave a word of warning to the HF’s : We can survive on nothing. We often have almost nothing to lose. We can recover when we hit a full blown loss. Can you? Someday it will again be our turn. Be ready. From what I’ve seen these past few days, your enemy (us) is formidable in ways you truly don’t understand. You got lucky at the very moment before we kicked you off the cliff. Next time, don’t count on it.

Not everyone gets to be DFV. He’s the exception not the rule. That’s why we are so genuinely happy for him, and for everyone who wins. Godspeed and God Bless you all.

Thank you. I can’t express my appreciation enough for the support and the responsibility of carrying or exemplifying some of your dreams.

I would prefer to now be cashed out at 6M, yes, but my biggest regret is that I didn’t get to celebrate with you all in the end.

I bled with you guys. RC ran.

It’s been an honor.

Sincerely,

Baby🐳 hgy
