SpaceX IPO - $SPCX is expected to IPO and trade starting June 12th. June 11, 2026 - The final IPO share price and valuation will be determined. This isn’t really about money or making a profit - but taking part of an historic event - the biggest IPO to date, maybe ever. Let’s see when OpenAI (ChatGPT) or Anthropic (Claude) IPOs. It’s a great story to tell the little ones 20 years later :) Here’s how to do it: Open and fully fund an account at a brokerage offering IPO access Reports currently mention: - Charles Schwab - Fidelity - Robinhood - SoFi Invest - E*TRADE by Morgan Stanley Understand that requesting shares ≠ receiving shares In almost all IPOs: - Investors submit an ā€œindication of interestā€ - The brokerage allocates shares - Allocation can be tiny or zero if demand is extreme How IPO Allocation Requests Work - No Obligation Initially: Submitting a request simply tells your broker you are interested in buying a specific amount of shares at the IPO price. It acts as a conditional reservation, not a finalized purchase. - Confirmation Window: When the IPO prices, your broker will typically require you to take an action to confirm or reject the shares before they officially hit the market. - Cancellation Deadlines: You can freely cancel or edit your request through your brokerage app right up until the broker's specific cut-off time (usually the afternoon before the stock begins trading). - Allocation Limitations: Because IPO demand usually outstrips supply, you are not guaranteed to receive the full amount you requested. You will only be allocated the shares your broker can fulfill Funding Requirements: Some brokerages may require you to have the cash readily available in your account when you submit the request. Flipping Penalties: If you do receive shares and sell them within a short window (often 15 to 30 days), your broker may bar you from participating in future IPOs.

Thank you for this guidance! I was thinking about this just this morning and feeling a bit lost šŸ™ŒšŸ™
Market update?
Hi @Tulinh Tran there was no market update this week?
Day 11 - Unconscious Spending
Unconscious spending is not about amount, it’s about lack of awareness at the moment of decision Most financial ā€œleaksā€ happen in micro-transactions, not big purchases. If you didn’t consciously choose it, it’s running on autopilot (habit, emotion, or the environment you’re in) Common Categories of Unconscious Spending 1. Convenience Spending - Food delivery, rideshares, last-minute purchases - Paying to avoid discomfort, time, or effort - Question: Am I buying ease or avoiding something? 2. Emotional Spending - Shopping when stressed, bored, lonely, rewarded - Temporary regulation, not real resolution - Question: What was I feeling right before this purchase? 3. Subscription Drift - Apps, memberships, auto-renewals you forgot about - Individually small, collectively significant - Question: Would I sign up for this again today? 4. Lifestyle Creep - Gradual upgrades without conscious decision - ā€œThis is just what I do nowā€ energy - Question: When did this become normal for me?

I spend a lot on Convenience things because my life is quite busy, so whatever I can do to make things easier for me, I’ll do it. But I don’t see this as unconscious spending because I’m well aware of what I’m doing, and I enjoy the benefits of it. So, the real culprit is Subscription drift. I’ve got a few memberships to things that I want to do more of (writing clubs, Mindvalley, fitness apps) and yet, I don’t use them for lack of time or energy or dedication. But I can’t get myself to cancel them because it’s almost like giving up on the intention to do those things. The thing is, I would still want to sign up to them today. I’m just not using them though. šŸ™
Day 13: spending vs priorities
How we spend our money is actually a record of our priorities! There are 2 things here: our behavior and money. It’s much harder to track behavior (although you can), it’s much easier to track and calculate how much and where money was directed towards. So for today, I want us to think about what our spending says about our priorities. Our spending patterns show us our true priorities. Misalignment isn’t the problem - it’s only when we don’t see it. What are your top 3 priorities? Where does the highest percentage of your money go to?

Rent is my top expense right now, paying for mine and also for the place where my mom lives in. Travel probably comes next. I love to travel. With my kid. With friends. Also by myself, sometimes. Self-care/family care: yoga, Pilates, skin care, hair and nail appointments (for my mom and me), health supplements, therapy for my kid, etc.
Day 16 - what debts do I have?
Step 1 - list all your debt! * Credit cards * Personal loans * Student loans * Mortgages * Car loans * Lines of credit * For each one, write: * Current balance * Minimum payment * Interest rate (APR) Step 2 - do the math: - Annual interest cost =Balance Ɨ Interest rate - $10,000 at 20% → $2,000/year - * That’s ~$167/month just in interest (before touching principal) Step 3 - Categorize: high vs low interest High-interest debt (typically 10- 30%+) - Credit cards - Many personal loans - Some private student loans→ This is financially corrosive→ It compounds against you Moderate-interest (5- 10%) - Auto loans - Some private loans→ Neutral to slightly negative depending on context Low-interest (0–5%) - Mortgages (historically) - Federal student loans - depending when you went to school

Okay, I was going to say no debt but there’s this one annoying thing I need to resolve. I stopped making payments two months ago on a storage unit that has stuff up in WA state that I’m not going to go get out. It’s mostly toys and kids clothes and some IKEA furniture that I’m fine parting with. It was costing me more to keep the unit after years than the value of the stuff that’s still there. I thought if I stopped paying it, they would just get rid of the stuff eventually and I wouldn’t have to worry about it, but I keep getting emails and texts and calls that I’m ignoring. Perhaps I need to call them and let them know I can’t come back for the stuff.. I’m just worried they’ll say I have to. Living in Mexico now, this is a huge ordeal because it would mean going up there, getting stuff out of storage and figuring out what to do with it since I can’t bring it here with me.. but it’s bothering me that this one small debt will grow in penalties before it goes away if I don’t do something… sigh.

@Tulinh Tran I did it! I called and asked them to auction the stuff in storage. It was super easy. Closed that open loop! šŸ™šŸŽ‰
