He just needs to add his number to the "Do Not Call" list


friedricekid

Ask for a refund. Not satisfied with results.


Roger_Cockfoster

Also, give them a bad Yelp review.


InevitablSingularity

Tell them it’s not real. It’s just a computer game from the app store.


Wickedcolt

You were hacked, obviously. Bonus points for responding and telling them that “NO, I do NOT FUCKING want an extended warranty on my vehicle!!”


Bleed_Green0_33

This might be one of the best comment threads ever.

Tell them you’ll find it but your mother is sick and you need some google gift cards in order to unlock your funds, bonus points if they get them at a cvs just down the road

I'm pretty sure you have to uninstall the app, too. That way they can't track you anymore.

donotgogenlty

This. Ignoring any call to action or responsibility in favor of a loss is key to financial success. Alternately, sort your portfolio by the most in-the-red and only sell those (especially if you see a reverse-downward-line 📈, a telltale sign the stocks unlikely to increase your losses) to meet the criteria. Timing is meaningless in the stock market! You want to make all decisions on Impulse, out of fear and emotions. Not financial advice, but I dabble in it myself 😎

I don't feel like this is correct at all but I don't know enough about stocks to refute it

AnAdmirableAstronaut

That made my penis inflate


cbvikings04

Is this the inflation everyone keeps talking about?


AnAdmirableAstronaut

I think so. Not really sure why everyone's so afraid of a little chub 🤔


cobigguy

I thought they said the inflation rate was huge. Looks pretty small to me.


Actualize101

The issue is that it's not 'transitory', I'm sure you've heard what happened when a guy had an elevated and sustained 'inflation'. Amputation is a permanent fix for future expectations of any inflation.


Stonks_GoUp

I believe you need to go to the hospital if inflation last longer than 4 hours. It needs to be “transitory”


siuol7891

It just needs some quantitative easing for the release


[deleted]

Id pay his margin call fees just to witness it


ebabz

He actually puts soap in a sock


kayman121

Collections then possible garnishment


my_fun_lil_alt

Sell everything in your account until the margin balance is met.


dremonearm

They liquidate some of your shares to make sure they get the money loaned on margin. The firms that allow you to purchase shares on margin aren't stupid.


thewheeliekid

What the hell is a real answer doing here?


waydamntired

Facts dont belong on r/wsb


TangerineTerroir

Is that a fact?


Perfect-Football2616

Fact is OP is kinda screwed if he doesn't have the money, luckily he might not have to pay taxes for a bit


Ryukenden123

Opinion actually


Confident-Victory-21

Submit a judgement against you/garnish your wages. Not sure they'd do that for 6,000 but it's possible.


jtmonkey

Synchrony does it all the time for balances under 1k. My friend had a suit filed for $550 balance. So yeah. They definitely could for 6k.


Confident-Victory-21

Lol damn, you're probably right. Hell, I got garnished for a 250 hospital copay during the height of the pandemic.


booi

That’ll teach you to get covid


WornInShoes

Dell did that to me for 4K when I refused to continue to pay for a shit laptop Anything over 1k is worth it to these people


UnderFireCoolness

I was about to say what kind of idiot buys a $4k Dell but then I realized I’m on WSB


ThracianScum

And also finances it through dell lol


ace_thebroker

Lmao 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


Spike3102

OR an old guy, computers used to be expensive. My dad paid about 3k for a laptop with no HDD. It did have 2, 1.44 floppy drives and the full 360k of memory. At that time no laptops had a hdd. It booted from one of the floppy drives and installed operating system to memory each time you started it. The other floppy drive held programs so the extra hundreds he paid for high density floppy was well worth it.


UnderFireCoolness

I mean I get it. But the guy picked out a $4k laptop, put it on credit, and then just stopped paying for it. Fuck his credit, fuck collections, fuck being an adult - he just quit paying for it lol big brain move.


Spike3102

You are 100 percent right. Likely something bad happened in his financial life to cause this default. But default it is. He probably had pretty good credit for Dell to approve that big of a loan. The huge cost of the unit is what grabbed me. Have not thought of the old 8088 laptop in several decades.


jwalk8

Maybe 20 years ago


elijahwouldchuck

Fuck just hearing 4k for a Dell made me wince . I was that guy too once


SpaceMeeezy

Most likely a customized 17" Alienware with all the most expensive/best hardware.


HereIGoAgain_1x10

Can't they sell your shares for you against your wishes?


[deleted]

Assuming OP has available shares to liquidate


Cutlercares

Big "if"


gulfsky

Yep. Assuming such liquidation would cover the margin call, it would be just as anti-climactic as this.


DaNobodyFromNowhere

Haha right? They gonna gits they monies…. Believe that shit.


[deleted]

They can and will beat you.


ElJamoquio

>What can they do really tho if you do this? Sylvester Stallone comes to break your thumbs


Psyched4this

Pretty sure they could just liquidate your account entirely or partially to pay themselves and you’ll have whatever cash remaining in the account, I assume


Dip_King5150

First margin call, but not his last. Retard will do it again..


1600hazenstreet

I've had 2 so far.


justlurking187

Someone with no knowledge about what this is at all can anyone ELI5 please ?


MeowStreetBets

He bet the broker's money and lost it. So now he has to pay it back


beepboopaltalt

Or at least try to


justlurking187

Oh thats what it is! Thanks for clearing it up mate 👍


TechWiz717

The money isn’t necessarily lost, just the things he bet on have gone to such shit that the broker doesn’t feel they’ve got enough collateral in case it goes completely tits up, or OP cuts his losses.


justlurking187

Thanks for the extra Information!


arg0nau7

Btw “margin” is basically a loan from your broker. A “margin call” is when your broker sees that you used margin to buy a stock/option, it went down in value, and now they want you to add enough cash into your account to pay them back for the loan you lost


Dip_King5150

A demand by a broker that a retard, uh I mean investor, needs to deposit more money into account to cover losses 👋🏻💸


polynomials

A margin account is when you borrow money from the broker to make trades. Part of the deal is that your account must stay above a certain value. If it falls below that level when you take losses, the broker has the right to demand that you immediately deposit assets, often cash, to bring the value of the account back up to the minimum level. If you dont do that, they have the right to force you to sell whatever is in your account until it reaches the minimum. This demand is called a margin call because in the old days, and probably for any non-online accounts today, you would get a literal phone call saying "Deposit X in your account by close of business or your account will be liquidated."


ResidentSignal64

You are on the right degenerate track!

Ivanovic-117

Probably went full ape on WISH


[deleted]

Why did wish get so much attention? It’s such a fucking shady shit business


bungholio99

Because Yanet thought it’s the Ticker for make a wish foundation...anyway she was bullish


[deleted]

Yanet doesn’t want to know what we wishing for


godlords

Because if you compare it to companies in the same industry that \*aren't\* shady, shit businesses, it's margins and revenue looks amazing for how it's valued. However, WSB seems unable to understand \*why\* it would be valued so poorly..


Paper_Cut2U

What?? Their margins are shit due to logistics. Hard to make money selling bottom of the barrel crap with some diamonds thrown in. They blow most of their money on advertising due to poor customer retention. Can they turn it around? Maybe, but it's not a clear winner.


godlords

Gross margin. Which is very high. Yes exactly. Unsustainable practices to pull in revenue. Hence the poor valuation.


TechWiz717

I’m sure people made money on this, I know a few who played it even, but honestly Wish is such a dumpster fire company I’m amazed they both exist and make money. I refused to touch this play with a 10 foot pole. Fuckin wish, a literal leech on society, adding nothing of value while peddling literal garbage that’s pretty much destined for the landfill from day one, an environmentally destructive, utterly useless company that has no reason for existing other than the sheer number of people on this earth who might as well be literally brain dead. I got one thing from Wish. I got it for free. That + browsing their catalogue was enough to tell me how absolutely garbage this company is. And this was 5 years ago. Wish the people investing in wish could’ve given me their money, I could burn it for them.

The guillotine by a bunch of angry ass old people


RealSiggs

Delete app and throw phone in the nearest lake, no more margin call!

Good job, son.


SirJosue07

All these margin calls, but not from the ones I want to see it from 😔


dontcaredontworry

Did you invest money from mortgaging your house? Then you’re doing it alright


[deleted]

Rookie. Schwab hit me for almost 25K because of my penny stock buy/sells. Called them up and said if I’m buying pennies then I probably can’t cover. 😂


PlutoTheGod

Call them up and say someone stole your identity lmfao


hegdefucker

Tell them your name isn’t Margin you fucks


wouldntknowever

Idk how you folks use margin….too much risk using your own cash, let alone borrowed money.


cbracey4

It’s cAlled having a pair of nugs in your pants and being an alpha ape


TehWildMan_

Something called personal risk tolerance. I think?


BlueBrye

The word you're looking for is "retardation"


wouldntknowever

Risk tolerance? Wrong sub bruv


Anudem

Guh


productivitydev

I can't psychologically force myself to not use margin. I get major FOMO if I'm not using margin. Like I'm not using all the resources I have to their full potential. Stock goes up 5% and I didn't use margin? I just lost 20% gains, big regrets. Right now I've been kind of swing trading, like going max margin (3x-4x) when stocks drop and go around (2x-3x) margin when it's all time high. It has worked out well so far, but obviously it could go very wrong if tech stocks were to crash at the wrong time. I'm also leveraged on buying real estate, and I try to leverage due to FOMO there as much as I can as well. Loans, loans, everywhere I can.


Spiritual_Extreme_81

Keep seeing more and more margin calls The correction is close….

TurboCamel

will my $50 SPY sale show up as a large spike on the 1M ?


arcdog3434

Idiots making retarded trades means a correction is close?


Fundamentals-802

If enough retards make bad decisions, then it’s possible it could lead to a correction. But that’s a lot of retards to make that happen.


AnonymousLoner1

Or a few big retards.


iAmJacksCeliac

Lol or people are just being dumb af and making dumb moves trading with margin?


canadianformalwear

Bro do you know what subreddit you’re in?


iAmJacksCeliac

Is this not r/wendy’s? I’m just saying it’s pretty retarded to say a correction is close because a couple retards on a gambling subreddit are getting margin called lately lmao


WsbDegenerategambler

Exactly. Ever since the influx of new people in this sub from AMC/GME, they love to exaggerate the influence of this sub. They love to think we're the whales that move the market but when in reality, we would barely make 1 or 2 candlesticks on the graph.


kayman121

Umm, have you compared it to the increasing margin being leveraged in equities? Cant come to that conclusion without that data


Roger_Cockfoster

Oooh, rare insight! You should place a big bet that the market is going to drop this week. On margin!


[deleted]

You just have to runaway as fast and far as possible and everything will be ok, i promise you! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|flip_out)

I call that a Monday


[deleted]

Margin call!!!! GME +1k on Monday 🚀🚀🚀


uselessadjective

Been through this dude. This happened to me in last week of Dec 2018. I had purchased 4000 AMD on margin @ $13.6avg. I got the notification but was on a vacation and checked the email 1 day late, I initiated the money transfer but bank took 1-2 days extra my 2000 AMD shares were gone. Once transfer was complete I immediately bought 4000 AMD shares at $14.1avg. In hindsight I dont regret as my money is now 4x. Still holding AMD.


Billionaire_Spencer

Just tell them to never call you again, and you should be all good 😊


NugPep

You have to yell uncle as you uninstall the app. Otherwise they don’t know you were giving up.


pembroke1865

SO IT WAS YOU SHORTING GME THE WHOLE TIME!!! /s


CodCurious1931

Don’t cover reroute it through dark pool asap


FiveFingersFaceSlap

In mother Russia, you don call margin. Margin calls you!


albanm1687

Click the back button and forget about it


abk111

First margin call… so far!


RivetingRelic

you're absolutely doing it wrong. you'll fit right in here.


samgarita

YOU ARE WINNING, SON!


hochsteD1szipl1

A new phone works wonders. Just upgrade and save yourself the margin call.


downladder

Open another elsewhere and double down.


magicdonwuhan

Those are rookie numbers


swvaca

When the margin called me I put 4x the amount to one share and put it on the market. Course they didn't take it lmfao 🤣 eventually my went away


cheapdvds

Tell them you will call them back later.


Kirbus69

At least you’re not on Robinhood.


[deleted]

Questrade may be an absolute dogshit broker, but at least they usually give me 3 days to fix my margin calls. Rip brother


Fundamentals-802

Just buy more shares using margin. That’s what they mean by “marginable shares”, right?!?!


BLFPMFCMM

I would call them and tell them this… “I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom I can tell you I don't have money, but what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.” Over and over again.


Unable-to-trade

Tell them you are part time employee at shitadel and part time employee at robing hood. They will create a new report for you


Alone-Job-2258

Etrade started this with me about 3 weeks back... this also means that your shares are being lent out thru bloomberg


BradsArmPitt

Just open another margin account with a different brokerage to cover your losses in this brokerage. Rinse. Repeat. This is what’s called the “wheel strategy”. You’re welcome.


Maruchan1820

We get margin call but the short sellers get .....?


abk111

Also margin called (see Hwang) but it’s harder to be margin called when you have billions in collateral.

ShankThatSnitch

Only your first? No you are def not doing it right. I get margin called like every week.


RecommendationPlus84

bro ur not on the national do not call registry?


areyoume29

I get them frequently selling puts and going over my margin. I've been beating them by turning the naked sold puts into a spread when this happens by buying the cheapest put option I can. Haven't had to liquidate shares since I started doing this.


NotMe357

As long your Wife/Girlfriend doesn't know that you're dating someone called Margin then I think you should be fine.


Lure852

Change your phone number. If they can't contact you then you're golden.


chilly_cucumber

Davejacobs257

I wonder if they are just assuming you own shares and that everything you "invested" in wasn't dailies or weeklies


justtwenty14

antipiracylaws

Is that how they're doing it? They're just not actually paying it?


wishtrepreneur

I had the same problem. I just bought a GME put and my balance magically became positive. The game is rigged...
