Art of The Deal
If there’s one thing that wouldn’t surprise me coming out of this, it would be a good chunk of that $300B in our tax dollars building a few Trump golf course resorts in Iran.- Gulf of America

Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?
On the Figma IPO, I got all 5 I requested at $33. Sold 2 at $100 right after IPO and held 3 (which was dumb, but I’m still up $100 on the whole deal). One thing I don’t know, if I requested 100 of SpaceX, would I have gotten 20 or still just 1. Guess we’ll never know.- Gulf of America

Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?
Yep. On Robinhood you request shares and based on how many they’re given and how many are requested, your order is partially filled (or in one case not filled at all) at the initial offering price. I got one share of the 5 I requested at $135 and just sold at $163. They say IPO flipping risks...- Gulf of America

Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?
I put in for 5 shares, we’ll see if I’m allocated any. I think there are so many fanboys it’s going to jump up from the initial offering price and I’ll sell any I get before trading closes. Unfortunately I’ll have long-term exposure in ETF’s because of the Nasdaq shenanigans but other than that...- Gulf of America

Thinking about getting a pellet grill
I have a Grilla vertical smoker and absolutely love it, but I think our use cases are pretty different - if you aren’t making lots of sausage the pellet grill is probably more convenient to use than the vertical. All that being said, my .02 is that the more long cooks with specific temp targets...- Gulf of America

Sell me a bed cover
I’ve had the roll-up canvas type - less secure and doesn’t look as clean but pretty handy overall. I’ve had a tri-fold - looked really nice and more secure but wasn’t easily removable (removing in itself wasn’t terrible, but reinstalling required a lot of little tweaks to align everything every...- Gulf of America

6.5 Creedmoor Peak
Depending on price, I’ll see how it shoots in my Howa Superlite. I don’t reload anyways so a few hundred fps for free if it groups well seems like an easy choice.- Gulf of America

What is the wait time going to be for suppressor approval starting 1/1/2026?
Just a lil' PSA, if you're sitting on a Form 4 submission longer than expected, might be worth reaching out to your FFL to have them check on the status. I received the email that my Form 4 trust was submitted 42 days ago and called my FFL today to check on it, and they said it's showing...- Gulf of America

I don't think having a previous approval provides any benefit. My ZG 7 form 4 was submitted on 4/22 so I'm hoping for an approval any day now, but the can I bought a couple years ago doesn't seem to be giving me any leg up.- Gulf of America

Conservation or Big Beautiful Ballrooms?
They may have been republicans for their whole life, but the primaries this last week should cement that if you think Trump is a POS you aren't a republican. Until our election process is overhauled or the silent center starts actually showing up for primaries, the republican party is not a set...- Gulf of America

Made in China
They look pretty interesting and the price point is pretty attractive. One thing that I prefer is zippered main pockets because I'm paranoid about my car key or wallet slipping out of my pocket to never be found again, but I acknowledge that's highly unlikely and have several pairs of pants...- Gulf of America

Or companies that Don Jr and Eric are on the board; pretty diverse range of stuff they're into these days from gov drone contracts to tungsten mining in Kazakhstan. Real entrepreneurs.- Gulf of America
