Good idea. Those will probably be popular again also in a decade for nostalgia.

Come on PotD, lets mastermind ideas together.

When Canadas dollar was worth more than the USD back in 2008... We now have to sign paperwork in Canada saying we wont buy and resell new vehicles. I personally was buying Xbox 360s (couldnt afford to flip vehicles) for $399 USD in the US when ours were worth $499 CAD, and our dollar was worth ten cents more. Im not saying what I sold them for but I made a decent amount of money at the time.

Selling "I survived the coronavirus outbreak and all I got was this lousy t-shirt" shirts seems hardly amoral when they could be scalping TP.

I mean, you could always make a t-shirt that says:

"I didn't survive the coronavirus outbreak, but this shirt did. Glad someone is using it"

Id feel kinda bad about doing that. Being a middle man and taking advantage of arbitrage is usually my kind of thing, but not really for a pandemic.

I was more thinking memorabilia and investments.

seems kinda messed up but at least you arent charging crazy amounts like some people online

not sure why folks are going crazy over hand sanitizer though when regular soap and water will work just as well

From what I heard, soap is also selling out. But hand sanitizer is probably more desired because you can use it anywhere at anytime because you dont need water...

You are 100% invested in a single asset class and put all of your disposable income into one index fund and only have a small emergency fund.

I am curious what a guy like you would be investing in if he had the cash. So what would you be buying?

Depends in how much I had. Like if I had 1MM cash right now Id put it into VTSAX like 5% a week or something right now Until its all in. Maybe like 15% VBTLX. Its already well diversified. If I had a few million Id probably talk to a professional or have to do more research.

If I want to use leverage probably real estate (which is likely but I dont know about it so havent taken the leap). I might in the future but realize I dont know enough yet to make that a wise decision.

Kinda want to try my own business eventually but thats lower on the list than real estate but still in the realm of possibility.
