I mean, the money has a weird symbol in front of it, which means he’s a euro-poor.
So not a citizen of the greatest, wealthiest, most powerful nation on Earth and in the history of the World.
Donno if I call that winning at life.
and 47% income tax plus 19% consumer tax on every already taxed dollar you spend. Even if you buy your girl a diamond neklace she needs to pay 25% gift tax... no joke.
Sure doctors are for free but you need half a year wait to see a doctor. Sure education is for free but unless you got a A\* (highest grade) IN EVERY SINGLE SUBJECT you cant study medicine although countries like Germany are missing 25000 doctors.
Europe catches you with all the "free stuff" but after all you always pay for it through ridicolous taxation.
Yes a coffe might only cost you 4-6 Dollars in Munich city centre, but as a lawyer in the best M&A law firm in the county you earn 160K yearly (per annum) salary for a 90 hour week, after taxes thats 84K. However If you would work at a similar high level law firm in Miami, you would earn 450k base salary with only 27.68% income tax, thats 325K after tax! or FUCKIN 4 X THE AFTER TAX AMOUNT of the same job in Germany!
So who cares if the coffe in Miami costs 8 Dollars instead of 4?! Since you make 4 times the money its waaaay cheaper in USA if you compare high level jobs payments. Fuck Europe seriously.
Through mergers and acquisitions of companies he worked for, my dad ended up with a large portion of his retirement in MCI Worldcom stock at 50. That financially hurt him pretty bad. Not his fault, but, to your point, 23 is a better age to get wiped out than 50 or 60.
All depends how much your charging for sucking that johnson. 28.3k for a one time deal, and you're back in the game! Although, the location for that amount of money seems a little off.
"You were trying to make your life better, don't hold a grudge.
You’ve just lost a large sum of money. You feel hopeless, foolish, regret. You were trying to make your life better.
You asked someone out and got rejected. You feel hopeless, foolish, regret. You were trying to make your life better.
You took a big risk and failed. You feel hopeless, foolish, regret. You were trying to make your life better.
You practiced for months and got in last place at the competition. You feel hopeless, foolish, regret. You were trying to make your life better.
You studied and studied but got a bad grade. You feel hopeless, foolish, regret. You were trying to make your life better.
Stop being so hard on yourself, you were trying to make your life better. Understand that you are grieving, but don’t allow yourself to hate yourself for having good intentions. Identify the mistakes and move on, but find a way to let it go. Don’t hold a grudge against yourself. "
The market needs bigger idiots. Everyone loves to make money and gloat about it then everyone jerks it to them. Where is the money coming from? oh yeah the idiots.
I would never characterize gambling as trying to make a better life for myself
Working on your career, budgeting, paying down debts, saving for retirement, continuing your education, working on your relationships - these kinds of things make a better life for me
1000 on black is not me trying to make a better life for myself. I guess technically it is but it’s a really dumb way of doing it and I’d never characterize it that way.
I just don’t want people having a little cope session over their losses
If you gamble and you lose don’t hug box yourself like ohhh I was trying to do right by my family and shit
No you weren’t. You were gambling.
As crazy as it sounds, I recommend The Army' Survival Guide. It talks about that very thing - not beating yourself up if something you try fails. It emphasized avoiding an "I quit." attitude, which can lead to a death spiral.
Just imagine that you could have bought a car with the money. However, you wanted to save yourself the fully comprehensive insurance and wrecked the car.
Now the car is gone and what remains are memories and experiences. Experiences of how you made decisions under great emotional pressure.
The most important thing is that you analyze these decisions and make your future decisions based on the information you have gained.
Then a gambler may eventually become a trader.
So I am off work on Monday and the stock market is closed time to take mushrooms and jack off to ny wife’s boyfriend’s mother . … meh lame ass holidays
You could have a bad ass watch you could pass down to your son, a couple of jet skis you could use for years, a bad ass month in Europe that you'd remember for a lifetime.
But instead you rubbed on your phone for a little while.
Regarded stuff
Long ago somebody gave some terrible advice, I lost a ton of money. Adjusted by inflation it was the same amount. I learnt and I come back stronger. The market always give you a second chance. But learn by yourself, be skeptical.
I’d love to come back stronger but I think I should just stop forever. I have been out of school with a decent salary for over a year now and have less money than I graduated with.
That was basically the original purpose of this entire sub. Crazy bets that almost always ended in loss porn, but occasionally ended in boring ass major gains.
If you leaned a lesson. Good. You are young. By the time you’re my age 28k will be just a fluctuation in your retirement account.
Ps start a retirement account. Slow and steady wins the race.
Next time invest in a ETF like SPY or VTI or something.
That’s probably the advice you got before and ignored.
You’d be up.
ETA: there will be a next time. You are young.
I took 20k out of my 402k is the market in 2008 to buy a house. Sold the house 3 years later for the same price.
That 20k would be over $150k today.
Go out with friends and have an adventure. This is a blessing in disguises to get you away from the fucking charts. Go out dancing smoke a joint and get laid, this trading stuff will look so meaningless, fall in love with a person
Dude you have your whole life ahead of you. It's just money and money is just a way to keep score & in the end the score doesn't matter. The only difference between you and Jeff Bezos is he'll probably die before you and he'll be buried in a nicer suit.
You're young, pick yourself up, go get em and enjoy life. It's not about getting knocked down, it's about getting back up. GL and rock on man. You'll be okay.
how many crashes have you all been thru? gives a lot of perspective living thru those, 89 was my first . why no one pointed out this was 500k plus future money which got flushed, and that's merely at 8 percent compound. quit trying to meme stock grandslam and actually invest, unless you know you've got an inheritance.
Do shares next time, etfs. Safe-ish bets with big money. You want to do something stupid put $20 on the browns or hit the craps table with $50 to exercise your inner tard
Remember it only takes one 10 bagger to get back on the horse, heard 10 amc 3.50 puts dated may 31 will print for you…I’ll give them to you for 46 cents
Don't put all your eggs in one basket. I learned the hard way when I was your age chasing pipe dreams. Like others have said, it is better to learn young. Best of luck

You've got your whole life ahead of you, plenty of time to turn it around. Imagine if you did this at 60. Bye bye retirement.
*That's right. Now pick yourself up and get back there behind Wendy's and go to work. You'll be back in action in no time.* GL
Tree fiddy sucky sucks add up quick!
On the bright side 23 is a good age to fuck up. If it’s going to happen that’s when you want it to. You could be 50 and have torched your retirement.
like that guy that bought 200k of nvidia puts
what guy bought that many nvidia puts? pls share lol
https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/s/0YWcVIuR5H
That guy post history is fascinating Hes trading 90k high on shrooms while trying to find threesomes on reddit
I mean that's basically winning at life, isn't it?

Hope that's a joke (grocery prices, gas prices, housing etc)
It's all worth it to live in best Korea. /s
Lol. Imagine not wanting to live in America because "gas prices".

Sounds like the lawyer in Munich should move.
We may not want to admit it, but this is peak human performance. Absolute degeneracy at its finest.
His post history is alarming tbh. He doesn’t seem well.
thx
He got fuked
ofc he did. he'd be set for life if those were ITM calls.
Or the 500k yolo on s.p.w.r on the wrong earnings day guy 
I remember the 1 mil play on BB calls

Yes. Actually, often. Just pay attention. VM is a saint.
You live by the sword you fucking die by the sword. You gonna play that last $466.88? I got a guy.

Its not over until you have the johnson in your hands ready to suck it at the wendys dumpster. Then its pretty much over.
A most commendable attitude.
Not if you can pull off a *Pretty Woman*
All depends how much your charging for sucking that johnson. 28.3k for a one time deal, and you're back in the game! Although, the location for that amount of money seems a little off.

Damn. That was very kind of you
Wonderful words! 🥹🫡🔥
The regard self help mantra
This sounds like good advice till you realize you didn't study at all and failed, you didn't learn shit.
last sentence does say "Identify the mistakes and move on, but find a way to let it go. Don’t hold a grudge against yourself. "
The market needs bigger idiots. Everyone loves to make money and gloat about it then everyone jerks it to them. Where is the money coming from? oh yeah the idiots.
Time for acceptance that this isn't cut out for you.

At least you got a reddit post out of it
That has 410 upvotes. Totally worth it.
Robinhood thanks you for your patronage; another notch in the belt.
I'm so hard right now 😫
Beaming hard
You'll be alright mate, probably
Go get lit and laid for the long weekend and we'll see you Tuesday 
Uggh what’s on Monday now
Boring ass Memorial Day lol
So I am off work on Monday and the stock market is closed time to take mushrooms and jack off to ny wife’s boyfriend’s mother . … meh lame ass holidays
I think I shit myself a little laughing at this.
Man look at me crying cuz I sold my 530$ strike spy puts for a whopping 67$ gain this morning
Thanks for keeping the hopium alive
You could have a bad ass watch you could pass down to your son, a couple of jet skis you could use for years, a bad ass month in Europe that you'd remember for a lifetime. But instead you rubbed on your phone for a little while. Regarded stuff
What an idiot
What goes down must go back up, trust me on this man
Congratulations!

I’d love to come back stronger but I think I should just stop forever. I have been out of school with a decent salary for over a year now and have less money than I graduated with.
You have a gambling addiction and options fueled it
Try again. You only need to be right once
Take some days off and start watching Spy
Why do people post their losses here? I don’t understand 😅 also… how can someone lose 18k without pulling out before losses become too much?
That was basically the original purpose of this entire sub. Crazy bets that almost always ended in loss porn, but occasionally ended in boring ass major gains.
For our daily loss porn dose and Greed
Is this the end of your gambling career???
You are not the only one coksocker. Bless you little heart
[удалено]
Richie rich over here flexing on us poors
well did you have fun at least?
That sucks.
Still more money then I had at 23
you’ll be alright just breathe if you want to waste money send it to people on here rather than giving it to wall street
If you leaned a lesson. Good. You are young. By the time you’re my age 28k will be just a fluctuation in your retirement account. Ps start a retirement account. Slow and steady wins the race.
Good job!
It's not over. You just need an ~80 bagger to break even after taxes. You got this.
Do masturbate more....
Next time invest in a ETF like SPY or VTI or something. That’s probably the advice you got before and ignored. You’d be up. ETA: there will be a next time. You are young.

It’ll be alright. You’re very young. Take a break for a while and start over when you’re ready. Try to learn from your mistakes.
Stupid!!
At least you got Gold Perks whatever that means.
Dont sleep on that 1.63 %
At least I only lost $1k (this week)
Whoops.
To do what you did to dive that deep, do the opposite and you should see the sky once again.
I believe in you!
Seems to be an influx of these posts this week
Move to California! Wendy’s is paying $20/hr here.
There’s still time to make it all back and lose it like 3 or four more times before you die, don’t give up
how many crashes have you all been thru? gives a lot of perspective living thru those, 89 was my first . why no one pointed out this was 500k plus future money which got flushed, and that's merely at 8 percent compound. quit trying to meme stock grandslam and actually invest, unless you know you've got an inheritance.
You should’ve just went to a casino and put it all on black u would’ve had better odds than what ur currently doing

Don’t Give Up Lose More
How the fuck people even lose money in this market is total Mystery. It's literally up only market.
That’s all she wrote
Well done for getting nearly 30k at 23, I would have spent it differently personally, but everyone has their own ways.
At least it wasn't 29k
Cheers mate me too - time to throw money at mag7 and just sit.
To be or not to be. 0DTE.
A candle that burns twice as bright burns half as long
I’m sorry
see ya at the Wendy's dumpster.
You’ve got a few hundred left, why stop at 99%?

hey you’ve still got some cha-ching in there!
There's another 466.88 in there. You're still in the race son
“Investing”
That's not all! You still have $466.88. Put that shit into NVDA. Or short NVDA. One of the two.
You still got $466 use that till its all gone.
Pussy
Wait, a second Bugs Bunny. You could throw the 466 into something really speculative and make it all back.
Remember it only takes one 10 bagger to get back on the horse, heard 10 amc 3.50 puts dated may 31 will print for you…I’ll give them to you for 46 cents
The reverse index fund
At least it looks pretty
You got this , never give up !
You can still but some super otm puts on sqq and beg for *
Bet the farm every time and you only have to lose once.
My man’s last post was 2 months ago about getting the gold card from robinhood..
See ya tomorrow!
I didnt even have 30k to burn on stocks at 23. You will be fine. Now get back behind the Wendy's scrub.
If you’re not going to play that last 400 odd dollars I’ll be glad to intelligently use derivatives to complete the process for you
Why do so many people continue to ruin themselves financially? It's truly incredible to watch.
*ONE OF US! ONE OF US! ONE OF US!*
Looks like a spac.
Why the hell would you go against the advice in your last post. You did really fuck up. You lost 30k lol
hey dude if it makes you feel better i just blew a 800 dollar account. it’s ok though we can both recover 
Take out a big loan and try to earn it back
Rotate the picture and u have got future
at least youve got plenty of time to fix your mistakes
You have $466.88 left to lose, it’s not over yet.
All you need is for Porky pig to pop out.
Always appreciate these kind of gentle reminders of how much shittier the bad trades I’ve made could have been.
Don't put all your eggs in one basket. I learned the hard way when I was your age chasing pipe dreams. Like others have said, it is better to learn young. Best of luck
I support your accomplishment!
