<h2>我的 Meta 故事</h2>
<p>我在十多年前首次投资 Meta Platforms（当时称为 Facebook），是在阅读了一份来自 Motley Fool 服务的引人注目的买入报告后，该报告将 Facebook 的数字广告潜力与 <strong>Google</strong> 进行了比较。当时，股票价格已大幅下跌，结合价格和广告驱动的增长潜力，吸引力十足，因此我购买了该股票的长期看涨期权。</p>
<p>这笔时机恰到好处的投资最终成为了改变人生的投资。Facebook 的股票从其首次公开募股后的下跌中恢复过来。然而，我并没有兑现我的看涨期权，而是在到期时行使了它们。我保留了一半的股票，另一半则出售以帮助支付我和妻子共同购买的第一套房子的首付款。</p>
<p>这笔交易的两个方面都取得了良好的结果。我和妻子在那套房子里住了几年，然后以不错的收益将其出售。我们随后又买卖了几套房子，积累了大量的资产。现在，我们拥有的房子是我们认为最接近梦想家园的地方，尽可能符合我们的经济能力。</p>
<p>与此同时，Meta Platforms 已成为我第三大持股。虽然我偶尔会在股票看起来过于吸引人时购买更多股票，但大部分价值来自我最初的购买，该股票的涨幅超过了 3000%。</p>
<h2>我为什么计划永远不再出售 Meta</h2>
<p>我并不后悔在十多年前行使看涨期权时出售了一半的 Meta 股票。我们的房屋拥有之旅在个人和财务上都是一次非常丰富的经历。然而，我不打算再出售任何股票，即使我很少使用 Facebook 或 Meta 的其他社交媒体平台。</p>
<p>一个原因是 Meta 现在支付股息。作为一个喜欢产生被动收入的人，Meta 现在为我提供了不错的收入来源。虽然 Meta 的股票目前的股息收益率为 0.3%，但我在最初投资成本上获得了高达 10% 的收益。我预计随着 Meta 增加股息，这一收入来源将稳步增长。我可以利用这笔收入购买其他股票。</p>
<p>然而，我计划继续持有 Meta 的主要原因是公司的选择性。当我第一次投资时，我的理论集中在 Facebook 通过广告货币化其庞大受众的能力上。现在，Meta 远不止是一家社交媒体公司——它正在大力投资人工智能，这可能在未来推动更大的价值创造。公司对新兴技术和新市场机会的投资开放性进一步增强了我对其未来增长的信心。</p>
<p>该公司正在大力投资人工智能，以开发超智能，旨在创造超越人类智能的人工智能。Meta 的大胆愿景是为每个人提供个人超智能，可能会改变技术对社会的影响。</p>
<p>Meta 实现这一目标的一种方式是通过人工智能设备，例如人工智能眼镜。许多人已经佩戴眼镜，包括我，这使其成为人工智能应用的现成工具。该公司还希望开发用于广告、创作和通信的人工智能产品和工具。</p>
<p>与此同时，我对 Meta Platforms 的投资理论远远超出了人工智能，还包括其他增长机会，例如 Quest VR 头盔和云游戏。Meta 在追求长期潜力的新领域方面的历史进一步支持了我对其未来能够继续为股东创造价值的看法。</p>
<h2>对我来说的永恒持股</h2>
<p>Meta Platforms 已经成为我改变人生的投资。展望未来，我对其大胆的雄心感到兴奋，包括追求个人超智能和对创新领导地位的坚定承诺。公司的适应和成长能力是我承诺长期持有 Meta 股票的核心原因。对我来说，这不仅仅是一项投资——它已成为我投资组合的基石。</p>

</div><h2>My Meta story</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>我的 Meta 故事</h2>
</div><p>I initially invested in Meta Platforms (then Facebook) over a decade ago after reading a compelling buy report from a Motley Fool service that compared Facebook's digital advertising potential to <strong>Google</strong>'s. At the time, shares had fallen considerably from their IPO level. The combination of price and ad-driven growth potential appeared so attractive that I bought long-term call options on the stock.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>我在十多年前首次投资 Meta Platforms（当时称为 Facebook），是在阅读了一份来自 Motley Fool 服务的引人注目的买入报告后，该报告将 Facebook 的数字广告潜力与 <strong>Google</strong> 进行了比较。当时，股票价格已大幅下跌，结合价格和广告驱动的增长潜力，吸引力十足，因此我购买了该股票的长期看涨期权。</p>
</div><p>That well-timed purchase turned out to be a life-changing investment. Shares of Facebook would go on to recover from their post-IPO dip. However, instead of cashing in on my call options, I exercised them at expiration. I kept half the shares and sold the other half to help put a down payment on the first home my wife and I bought together.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>这笔时机恰到好处的投资最终成为了改变人生的投资。Facebook 的股票从其首次公开募股后的下跌中恢复过来。然而，我并没有兑现我的看涨期权，而是在到期时行使了它们。我保留了一半的股票，另一半则出售以帮助支付我和妻子共同购买的第一套房子的首付款。</p>
</div><p>Both sides of that trade have worked out well. My wife and I lived in the home for several years before selling it at a nice gain. We've gone on to buy and sell several homes, building lots of equity along the way. Now, we own what both of us consider as close to our dream home as we could have reasonably hoped to afford.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>这笔交易的两个方面都取得了良好的结果。我和妻子在那套房子里住了几年，然后以不错的收益将其出售。我们随后又买卖了几套房子，积累了大量的资产。现在，我们拥有的房子是我们认为最接近梦想家园的地方，尽可能符合我们的经济能力。</p>
</div><p>Meanwhile, Meta Platforms has become my third-largest holding. While I've occasionally bought more shares when they seemed too attractive to pass up, most of the value comes from my original purchase, which has gained over 3,000%.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>与此同时，Meta Platforms 已成为我第三大持股。虽然我偶尔会在股票看起来过于吸引人时购买更多股票，但大部分价值来自我最初的购买，该股票的涨幅超过了 3000%。</p>
</div><h2>Why I plan on never selling any more Meta</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>我为什么计划永远不再出售 Meta</h2>
</div><p>I don't regret selling half of my Meta shares upon exercising the call option over a decade ago. Our homeownership journey has been a very enriching endeavor, both personally and financially. However, I don't plan to sell another share, even though I rarely use Facebook or any of Meta's other social media platforms.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>我并不后悔在十多年前行使看涨期权时出售了一半的 Meta 股票。我们的房屋拥有之旅在个人和财务上都是一次非常丰富的经历。然而，我不打算再出售任何股票，即使我很少使用 Facebook 或 Meta 的其他社交媒体平台。</p>
</div><p>One reason is that Meta now pays a dividend. As someone who likes to generate passive income, Meta now provides me with a nice income stream. While Meta's stock currently has a dividend yield of 0.3%, I'm earning a hefty 10% yield on my initial cost. I expect that income stream to steadily grow as Meta increases its dividend. I can use that income stream to buy other stocks.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>一个原因是 Meta 现在支付股息。作为一个喜欢产生被动收入的人，Meta 现在为我提供了不错的收入来源。虽然 Meta 的股票目前的股息收益率为 0.3%，但我在最初投资成本上获得了高达 10% 的收益。我预计随着 Meta 增加股息，这一收入来源将稳步增长。我可以利用这笔收入购买其他股票。</p>
</div><p>However, the main reason I plan to keep holding Meta is the company's optionality. When I first invested, my thesis focused on Facebook's ability to monetize its large audience through advertising. Now, Meta is far more than a social media company -- it is investing heavily in artificial intelligence, which could drive even greater value creation in the future. The company's openness to invest in emerging technologies and new market opportunities reinforces my belief that it still has a lot of growth ahead.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>然而，我计划继续持有 Meta 的主要原因是公司的选择性。当我第一次投资时，我的理论集中在 Facebook 通过广告货币化其庞大受众的能力上。现在，Meta 远不止是一家社交媒体公司——它正在大力投资人工智能，这可能在未来推动更大的价值创造。公司对新兴技术和新市场机会的投资开放性进一步增强了我对其未来增长的信心。</p>
</div><p>The company is investing heavily in AI to develop superintelligence, aiming to create AI that surpasses human intelligence. Meta's bold vision is to deliver personal superintelligence to everyone, potentially transforming the impact of technology on society.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>该公司正在大力投资人工智能，以开发超智能，旨在创造超越人类智能的人工智能。Meta 的大胆愿景是为每个人提供个人超智能，可能会改变技术对社会的影响。</p>
</div><p>One way Meta aims to do that is through AI devices, such as AI-powered glasses. Many people already wear glasses, including me, making them a ready-made tool for AI applications. The company is also looking to develop AI products and tools for advertising, creating, and communications.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>Meta 实现这一目标的一种方式是通过人工智能设备，例如人工智能眼镜。许多人已经佩戴眼镜，包括我，这使其成为人工智能应用的现成工具。该公司还希望开发用于广告、创作和通信的人工智能产品和工具。</p>
</div><p>Meanwhile, my Meta Platforms' investment thesis extends well beyond AI to other growth opportunities, including products like Quest VR headsets and cloud gaming. Meta's history of pursuing new areas with long-term potential further supports my view that it can continue growing shareholder value for years to come.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>与此同时，我对 Meta Platforms 的投资理论远远超出了人工智能，还包括其他增长机会，例如 Quest VR 头盔和云游戏。Meta 在追求长期潜力的新领域方面的历史进一步支持了我对其未来能够继续为股东创造价值的看法。</p>
</div><h2>A forever stock holding for me</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>对我来说的永恒持股</h2>
</div><p>Meta Platforms has already been a life-changing investment for me. Looking ahead, I'm excited by its bold ambitions, including the pursuit of personal superintelligence and a steadfast commitment to leadership in innovation. The company's ability to adapt and grow is a core reason why I'm committed to holding my Meta stock for the long haul. For me, it's more than an investment -- it has become a cornerstone of my portfolio.</p>
