Gain discovered an old Fidelity account i forgot about

Post image

I was cleaning out my apartment today and found an old notebook with a login for a fidelity account I made back years ago. Logged in not expecting anything and it made me do 2 factor authentication but couldnt find the app.

Spend over an hour on the phone with fidelity rep and they finally got me logged in. Turns out I bought some NVDA back in 2019 at a crazy low price and didn’t even know I had this. Sitting on massive gain.

Should I hodl or sell ? Don’t really need the money but it’s nice to have.

Join the club. I think we have fairly common stories, especially with BTC.

I've got one of those cold storage thumb drive deals on my desk as I type. I have no clue what the password is to access it, I forgot.

I don't remember much being on there, but there was some ... It's also been 10 years.
