Just because that guy did it doesn't mean "why isn't everyone just doing this".

It also doesn't mean that guy was an idiot.

Personally, I don't have the information at my disposal that aligns with the risk profile I have for my capital to go and buy a section of land and drill a well.

Good for you, don't deride me or imply I'm a moron because I allocate my capital differently.

I think some of the people involved in the GME crap actually knew what they were doing, and made a lot of money. I think way more people should have stayed the hell away.
