TENDIES
(Investment Profits)
TENDIES (from "chicken tenders") is internet slang for trading profits, particularly those spent on frivolous purchases. The term originated in 4chan's finance boards where users posted gains alongside photos of celebratory junk food.
In meme finance culture, tendies represent the tangible rewards of risky bets - a $5,000 BTC investment becoming $50,000 might be "enough tendies to retire." The concept fuels YOLO mentalities, with traders chasing life-changing tendies through assets like NFT or penny stocks. A 2022 study found traders who discuss tendies online take 300% more risk than average. While playful, the tendies mindset can encourage reckless behavior - the SEC reports 60% of traders who chase tendies underperform buy-and-hold strategies.
