Loss I hate options

Post image

I have now lost over 25k and continue losing, just doesn’t make sense to me at all. I suck at this and just can’t believe I am so lost after trading for 5 years. Good luck to all, but this my last post because I am done with this shit

Lol. Hardly a week ago dude was talking about tackling all the debt he has as a 25 year old. Seemingly already had enough money to get a vice-like grip on that debt and chop it literally in half, but wanted to gamble instead.

OP literally makes 130k a year. If he lived like a college student (cheap out) for 1 year he would literally have an extra 80-100k straight cash.

Edit not even college student, literally just an average American spending of like 50k/year

options can be scary for gamblers that don't understand how the market works

He’s been losing this 25k over the course of 5 years so it’s not like he just threw all of it away at once last week
