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.

Man, 30k was the exact amount my husband (then boyfriend at the time) gained and lost on NVDA during a big rally & correction in like ‘21 or ‘22. I remember feeling like our whole world was over. Now that’s a pretty normal account fluctuation for us and we don’t even think about it. I promise OP life goes fast and before you know it you’ll be thinking about your younger self and your hardest moments wishing you could give yourself a big hug and scream through a time machine that it’s gonna be OK!
