Claim it as a loss on your taxes since it is an investment. Now it is "worth" whatever taxes were paid on 635,000 dollars of income, which I would guess is in the 100K - 300k range.

That doesn't help that he actually paid $635,000 for it and now it's worthless.

It's as if he took half a million dollars and just set it on fire. Being able to claim a loss on his taxes, if that's allowed (which I'm pretty sure it isn't), doesn't really help with that.

And yet this degenerate asshole is worth ~$150M Laying out bare, being 'smart' has no bearing on wealth.

Sorry, that's not worth $155.

How much is it worth in Trumpcoin?

The computer can't handle a number that small, it will just round it to 0.

[–] plyth@feddit.org 3 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Do you mean to say that Trump coins are very valuable?

[–] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 2 points 21 hours ago

I was thinking that both values are very close to zero, but that would mean they use a third currency as intermediate, and as I remember that's not how things work.

So in conclusion my comment needs some more work.

Why is it even worth $155?

TIL: NFT's are/were the modern equipment of beanie babies

Is this the guy who got his jaw busted, and now wants to fight a football player?

Is this the same guy who filmed the dead bodies in Aokigahara forest?

[–] treesquid@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

Then he made it all back on a Pokemon card, right?
