What’s something you own that has truly paid for itself? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I’m curious, what’s an item, tool, or purchase you own that you feel has completely justified its cost over time? Could be anything from a gadget to a piece of furniture or even software. What made it worth it for you?

It's called Autopilot, I just downloaded it and it synced with my Robinhood account. Costs 100 bucks a year for the automated trading. I've been up 40% over the year

Is Nancy Pelosi the best performing?

Edit: this app really only for mobile? No desktop? Sus

[–] cristo@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

I think Jim Simmons is the best performing one they have that's included with the regular subscription. It's a new one though I think, I did the Nancy Pelosi one for a year and it was the best performing for that period. And yeah it is kinda sus that it's a mobile only afaik

I thought this didn't work because by the time their purchases are disclosed, you are already buying past the rise in price?

[–] cristo@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

That is true, but it's about the percentages. If you make the trades as they get released to the public, you still make money. It's within a few percent of what Pelosi is making. I switched to a different one that is reported instantly as far as I know instead of Pelosi's 14 days average. It's the Jim Simmons tracker
