Bought $1000 of Ford in 2009 instead of Bitcoin. When I sold, it had broken even while BTC was up 40kx.
Also should have lived with parents and then bought a house instead of renting.

Paying for medical bills with a credit card.
The credit card company was able to sell the debt to a connector and garnish my wages. I have more medical bills I haven't paid in years though and they just sit there because they're still with the hospital.

1)Being too fucking scared to go all in during 2008 crash and the slow recovery.. till 2015!

2)Not buying bitcoin when it was a dollar... or even $10 or $65,000!

3)Not going all in during the COVID crash of 2020

You can always go all in on this crash now

not investing because i thought it was going to crash

Not selling link at 53,40,30,20,15,10.

Also same applies instead of selling to fiat selling into BTC since now it has drop so much in sats it's effectively another shitcoin

>>
>>62343038
he is definitely better looking than me and I have done pretty good with the ladies. I think the problem is autism. Autists have insane standards and its why many of them only want anime girls and cant even really be attracted to real hot girls because they might burp or have have a mole or whatever. And yeah I assume his audience was even more autistic than 4chan.

Weed, which made me sometimes spend $100 a day on food alone.

Paying women to lick their feet.

>>62342782
Not when the credit card company sells your debt. It was either get my wages garnished or be taken to court.
I don’t think hospitals are allowed to do that, but i was trying to be a decent human paying for services rendered.
Young and dumb idealism desu, didn’t know how fucked the medical industry was

Crypto.

Not selling when I was deep into profit. My plan was to hold much longer but If I took some profits I would have been able to buy back in lower.

>>62343038
Watch the video. It's like his face is somehow fixated in that awkward quarter-turn, chin forward position with invisible wires or something.
It's bizarre.

In the grand scheme of thing 30k isn't that bad of a loss to wait out. Maybe 200k+ would be a lot worse. Most can save 20k a year so look at it as a year. The more 20ks you stack the worse it is.

So my rule is I don't invest more than 20k on something if I'm not sure of it, that's not the s&p 500 VOO or VT.

Sold 10000 shares of AMD at a loss at like $12 a share.

Going to uni, at the time I was extremely shy and if you want to, you can really be alone at university.. So i barely spoke to anyone for 5 years, which just amplified the shyness and made me even more socially inept.
The lonesomeness made me drink more, and my grades began to suffer.

At the end, it cost me around ~$70K, I don't use my degree so it's basically worthless now, but the real killer is the opportunity cost, 5 years i could have been earning money, 5 years of being (forced) to socialize at work - which, i know now, would have a dramatic impact on my ability to socialize and basically cure me of my shyness.

I invested into fricking starbucks right as covid hit. Starbucks was not the play, ironically, if I invested into McDonalds as I planned I would've made a shit ton of money, but I didn't have enough cash for a long call worth 13k at the time. Lesson learned, don't cheap out, but it still would've been my worst investment decision, dumping all my money into one long call on a stock is absolute ape behavior and I knew it.

This guy is a master entertainer. His "manhunt" videos are near-constant excitement, last-second clutches and brilliant plot-twists
>>
>>62345586
And all scripted

>>62345588
Probably, to a large extent, yeah.

There's certainly a strong selection bias. He himself admitted they quietly discard many videos that don't turn out well

>>62339898
thought i wanted to be a doctor. $5-10k on applications and travel to interviews plus $40k for a semester, after which i realized i hated it and dropped out.

Stopped selling weed in the black market because muh morals. It was effortless.
>>
lost $4k on ANKR when retards here we’re shilling it
lost $10k giving it to a friend who promised ez gains on options, never go into business with a friend
I also got hep c from a Thai whore but luckily my body cleared it in its own, recently got a handie from a Colombian whore, almost did FS but was scared of STDs again, bitch charged me $200
>>
>>62345621
elaborate on your morals and why it didn't stop you from starting in the first place.
>>
>>62345634
At first it was "if I don't do it then someone else will" and "weeds not addictive" and I was mainly just selling to kids my age. Then my customer base started growing and I was selling frequently to this single dad and he'd bring his kid with him when he'd meet me. That was probably what turned me off of it. I couldn't get that image out of my head when I'd sell to kids my age. I didn't want to be the one that sent them down that path. But yea the profit margin was insane if you had a solid clientele. Buy a half pound for 650 and sell it off almost gram by gram. Almost a 400% profit margin.

Not buying more boden when I knew it was memetic. I got 1200+% on way too small of an investment. Second only to listening to my friend and buying that dogshit mimany and immediately getting rugged. I should've gone with my gut. The design is so repulsive and now every time I see one of those retards on Twitter I get pissed off.
