i get it, if you play the game then you have to be ok with losing at times

I have a savings account and a 401k
this is being treated as a medium term (5 to 10 years, perhaps 10 to 15) source of income.


i am also aware that you have to just step back. I cant remember the study but they realized that some of the best performing stock players were dead people since the dead have a tendency to not take action
