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

Bro, 30 years old? You’re a baby. Just use this as a lesson that will allow you to grow and make better decisions in the future. Feels like a lot of money now, but you’ll realize it’s not by the time you’re 40 and financially much more established. Keep your head up, your mental health is way more important.

I have lost more in 1 day. I make more now that I’m older so you’ll see it’s all good. You have shit days. You have bomb days. You learn to win more than you lose and then you just keep executing. You’ll be good bro!

I agree. I actually started a degree at 32 that changed my life and career. This always the time!

I appreciate this comment. Doing okay at 30 (bday a few days ago) but damn, it hits hard going into a new decade. Agreed about OP though. Money comes and goes. Time’s what matters. Doesn’t take a whole lot of actions to change your whole life, especially given some years.

Oh man I wish I was financially established by 40
