So if you want to go buy something that ain't worth the shit or you think it's worth the shit and I don't, I don't have a problem with that so much, but now you want me to, No, and people have to understand that. And if they're throwing fucking beads at Cybertruck, you can imagine where they're going to be in two months.

And once it gets in your hand, it's not worth a shit. And once it's on the ground, it's trash. It's trash, okay? But at one period, when that corner will be, I think you're on the apex. I don't know what the right word is. But it's right there. Its value is infinitely more than it is. But it's your hand when it falls on the ground because no one's going to stoop down and pick one up.

I didn't realize that you had all of these CDOs and you had these tranches. And oh, my God. And then you brought the whole shit down with you. That's what they do.

There's a site called Predicted where you can actually bet on the outcome of an election. I think limited in size, but whatever the odds are, take the Democrats in the Virginia governor's race. All right. And if you can get over five or even over seven, take it. So, James, what do you say?
