Still would only be 100% profit. Costed nothing to get them, so when you sell them, they will be 100% profit.

As a shareholder I would discuss the options of a share buyback program with the company.

No doubt they would prefer that then dumping a large chunk of them on the open market.

Although that would depend on the shares I got.

Share buyback programs.

Sell the shares back to the company rather then on the open market.

Alternative answer:

If I can get my money for nothing then I would like my checks for free.

Edit: It's actually "chicks" for free. Also the uncut version of this song is offensive like only something four decades old could be.

That wasn’t the question. It was asking what you want for free for a year. And this would be my answer too. Give me a year to gather as much gold as I can.

Thank you for your kind words.

I honestly rapidly went through a bunch in my head, my first one was real estate, but then I was like.. "no, I'd need to get tenants in that fast cause that gets taxed separately, not just income tax", so then my backups were either gift cards, or lottery tickets :3

I ultimately went with the lottery cause it's less limited than gift cards, and even if they don't pay out all the time they have enough small payouts to get you hooked™ so at no cost even what would be putting me in the negatives irl would be profits in the hypothetical :3

And maybe if I make enough I can just hire people to check the tickets for me in the long(er) run hah

I feel like "in general" would be the same as "everything needed to live" but I suppose if you wanted to then there could be an argument made otherwise.

Anyway to actually answer the question I meant I would like to not pay for anything to continue living.
