My apologies for misjudging your motivation. I was a gold medalist in the Conclusion Jump in 2012. But, yes, throwaway money gets spent on things I might not otherwise buy. A Tesla is Just Another Car, nothing special. I have one of those already, just in Hyundai form, don’t need another one. Hence the Ferrari with all its impracticality.
Back to the original post I replied to: the money I made on TSLA wasn’t “free”, it represents opportunity cost if nothing else (I could’ve purchased the car I really wanted instead). And hence no Tesla for me. But if I had purchased 10x of those early Tesla shares…I’d still buy the Ferrari, and get groceries in the Hyundai. :-)
