    If only there were some kind of… I don’t know… ‘market’… where you could sell your unwanted ‘stock’ of oil to the highest bidder… at a reduced price, given the urgency.

    MFW I buy futures and they become presents.

    .

    (I don’t actually trade I think it’s kinda gross)

    this is why you don’t fuck around on the futures market

    if you’ve ever had to drive a truckload of eggs to chicago, well, yeah.

    if this is real and you’re having a bit of a panic, i can help you arrange a truck (but it will not be cheap, the truckers i work with are out of Fresno, CA). I’m not sure what you will do with the crude though. I would recommend finding a refinery to sell to.
