And why would I give you 10x if the market is giving me 100x? You should be giving me odds actually because I'm actually taking a bigger bet. Anyways when it cracks $440 on Monday and I get my new options, I will do 100% on those meaning it should be about $500 a share by Friday.

Also if what I said was so preposterous you should have said, I will give you 10x your return if that happens and give me a 2x if it doesn't.

Well you’ve stated it as an absolute, so it must be sure thing right?
There are no guarantees in the market. If there was I'd be a billionaire right now.

You can place it in an lazy/bogleheads portfolio if you want to reduce risk and even that is not guaranteed.

The only difference between what I said and an ETF is $TSLA will turn $100,000 into $1M in a decade but the ETF will only turn $100,000 into $400,000 in that same time frame (if the SPY continues its 10-year returns.)
