This isn't a bitchy/woe-is-me post, I take 100% responsibility for treating the stock market like a casino. I just am a) embarrassed and b) I don't even know where to go from here.
So long story short basically for the last two years I've been listening to Ron Walker and Maverick of Wallstreet for news/updates. So of course this whole year while the market has been absolutely ripping I've been short. Before that I was in on the AMC squeeze but of course I never sold because treys trades and Matt said it was going to a gazillion… and now am down 65%+ on all that.
I am aware of how much of an idiot I am, and no, I'm not going to take these guys advice anymore.
I've watched 40K+ turn into 12-13K. I'm in my early thirties and I make a decent living, don't have a tremendous amount of debt or anything and losing that money hasn't negatively affected my life outside of just like… what the fuck have I been doing? I could've really helped out my family with all that and instead it's just gone.
I mean do I just buy dividends and legitimate companies now? Do I just fucking call it good and take what I have left? Where does someone even go from here?
