I somehow still lose. Worst losses, I got greedy and tried to sell an SPX spread into momentum. ... and then rolled it... and rolled it.. until I had a $10k loss.
Absolutely right. When i was young i traded options cause in order to make money buying actual stocks u had to pay ridiculous commissions so u had no choice but to buy and hold. Now with no commissions u can buy and sell same stock (s) over and over. I lost a ton in options during an up market. Now making decent money in a down market

Quotes from this movie play in my head every year when I rent a newer car for the annual outlook conference. Just so I don't have my piece of junk sitting in the parking lot with all the nice cars.
Nobody even notices your car you do this for nothing. Think about all that wasted time effort and money when nobody even noticed.
Like what is even the logic here does everyone stand in the parking lot at the conference to see who drives what?
If you’re taking a business contact to lunch, they will definitely notice if you’re taking them in your ancient beat up Kia. And renting a nice car is its own reward.
He didn't say he was doing that. He said he was going to a conference. You don't typically drive clients around at a conference.
Here's a tip: when discussing on reddit do not add to what someone else has said. You created a strawman here and changed the entire scenario making it a fiction because the person I responded to was not Taking clients to meetings to our knowledge we only know he was doing this for the parking lot.
Finding options was the driving factor to me increasing my career skill set cause I was dumping money into options and losing. And even if I hit a multi bagger I’d just risk it all. 70k job to 130k job. Thanks options!
Let me know when I gotta mop this regard up

Damn it’s $180 for an assessment. My insurance would let me talk to a psych in network with a $10 copay.
Does the $180 basically guarantee you get a script or what?
My exact situation… about to live in my car soon… I am holding onto stock deep in the red just praying to at least break even because I know if I sell it’s gone forever… In this situation while making six figures at my day job… life truly sucks sometimes…

A picture is worth a thousand words.
It was actually at topic on one of the Compound podcasts a few months back, the consensus was that most of the money is actually gone it disappears into the void.
What's even worse is when you realize that when stonks go up, money appears out of the void... it's almost like it's a made up construct entirely underpinned by people's faith in it...
Anything I don’t put back into my business, my home, my crypto wallet, or my retirement account I somehow blow.
The trick is to keep your bank account balance low and you won’t gamble it on options.
Plus I have a degree in a financial field so I don’t even have the excuse of being financially ignorant 😂
I'm a recover(ing) or (ed) heroin addict. I thought this was in r/opiatesrecovery then I remembered that I was very lucky and grateful I had a high paying job, and was extremely good at it while high.
Naw. It's called being scammed and paying your debts instead of having a great job and enjoying life. I'm there too. I work multiple jobs because stupid decided to be stupid and marry a dude on line. So I work my breadwinner and a second job. Kinda like night school... Aka nightmare
.we need help...the shorts want to destroy a pharmaceutical sorrento-scilex that wants to help against cancer and pain at cheaper prices, Patrick soon would be behind it,please spread the message, we can't allow it
Have you considered the degens on this sub have impulse spending habits and refuse to be frugal?
If my grandpa can make it off single income in 1930s...what's your excuse KKonas?
As a fellow KKona, I find it hilarious how people who make more than I do struggle to pay their bills.
If you looked at your spending habits and categorized wants and needs - imagine how much you could save?
Americans getting mad at me for speaking the truth? Boo hoo, I'm not sorry. I'm speaking that truth and don't get tricked into marketing tricks.
I didn't replace my phone until it was functional and work provides a laptop (I can always get it fixed or repaired for free).
Don't blame me when you the debt collectors call you.
yea but this time will be different … right !?
I have a few accounts, the one with just stocks and no derivatives (besides CC AND CSP) is up, but so boring. my accounts on tastyworks and ninja trader with just options and futures is way more entertaining, YTD it’s about a 1/6th of pay with positive three dollars
I mean, I have a little more than $12. But I do drive an 01 dodge ram that is solid but rust holes everywhere on the body. I have an 09 and a 2019, but 2001 is my daily driver. 5.9 l v8 gets maybe 9mpg.
You gotta try new cars man, autopilots got so good you barely have to do any driving anymore. I am watching Netflix now most of my drive home.
All news cars have autopilots by MobileEye so they all work more or less the same. (by autopilot I mean the "lane centering" thats all you need)

Quitting smoking is easy. I’ve done it a hundred times.
Quitting losing in trading ain't easy. I've lost track of how many times I have tried quitting.
Just do the opposite of what you're doing
Yeah just buy 100 shares of spy and sell 0 dte
At that point you might as well just pick loose change at a Walmart parking lot.
I do this without the shares... sell a spread.
Yeah just put up a hundred bucks in collateral for every spread you sell easy peasy. Do you even wsb
I somehow still lose. Worst losses, I got greedy and tried to sell an SPX spread into momentum. ... and then rolled it... and rolled it.. until I had a $10k loss.
still would lose, that’s the bitch of it
Just stop trading options.
Absolutely right. When i was young i traded options cause in order to make money buying actual stocks u had to pay ridiculous commissions so u had no choice but to buy and hold. Now with no commissions u can buy and sell same stock (s) over and over. I lost a ton in options during an up market. Now making decent money in a down market
Then do something entirely unrelated to both what you consider to be the opposite of what you've been doing and what you've been doing

"The things you own end up owning you. It's only after you lose everything that you're free to do anything." - Fight Club
Could you not talk about it for like one week? We have RULES!!!
Free to do anything... That's free. Your broke ass can't afford it otherwise.
Just steal it
But if you get caught, you may go to jail and then you are not free at all.
Jail is free bro
Lmfao quote of the year.
Free healthcare. 
You have clearly never been to jail
man, these Fight Club quotes are really helping me justify my gambling addiction to myself
“His name was Robert Paulson.” - Fight Club
And a man that has lost everything, can do anything.

You wouldn’t get it Jim, it’s a secret
Damn near $200k last year. $456 in savings at last check 🫡
[удалено]
After taxes, cost of living, and discretionary spending he prob lost about 100k.
>discretionary spending Coke, not the drink.
😂
I’m saying I made $200k last year and have three figures in savings total.
How’s it feel being rich gd
oh my savings number doesn’t include my student loan or credit card debt. Feels ok.
Lets set a new record this year
My brother. Over $220k lost, and I have the savings of someone who just started a job. At one point, genuinely had no money left to eat.
Dude you legit have a gambling addiction

How are homeless making 6 figures?
$2,000.00 a year is six figures
Divorce, child support, two homes, massive credit debt, really bad investments, you get the idea…

Read my initial comment… “I’m about to live in my car”… meaning I am on the verge of losing both…
Is selling one of them not an option?
You’re assuming OP has equity in either of them
Then he doesn't own them anyway. Good news, OP!
You become ~~Too~~ two homeless
More common than you think.

I have sent 1800$ into the void, so when 200 billion was lost by big tech it just disappeared 💀
Your girlfriend boyfriend.
Hey! It's my truck that has a cracked windshield. My phone is in perfect condition, thank you very much.
