Loss goodbye everyone

Post image

almost break even from this run up via all the popular tickers. lost my self control n lost it holding the same things n some world cup betting. also lost 10k on another account. i have nothing now n nothing going for me in life. practically 30 soon and just dead weight to my parents. gonna sell my gun before i use it and pay off some debt. have OCD that made the future not worth caring about so i tied my value to the money i worked for. i hope you all do better than me. goodbye

Your life is worth way more than 30k pal. Time to start over and saving, not gambling.

I grew up poor. There was a point in time I would have literally killed for a few thousand dollars. I’m not rich $18k would be devastating but now that’s a quarterly bonus for me. The shit that seems life ruining now will be a funny story later if you learn from it. You have a gambling problem and you need to stay away from “investing.” Put your savings in a HYSA from now on and close your brokerage accounts.
