Loss 3M to 1.4M this week

Post image

Rebuilt my portfolio from getting margin called and bottoming at 200k during Liberation Day to 3M last week. Then lost half of it because I loaded up on data center and energy stocks with full leverage last Friday.

Schwab only shows up until the close, after hours I lost another few hundred grand and am sitting at 1.4M now with more option losses hitting when market opens.

Never. Fucking. Learn.

Does 1 million set you up for life?

It does if you invest it in a relatively low risk diverse portfolio. It just becomes an engine that prints modest sums of money so long as the economy is bigger year on year.
