We're all failures at different points in our lives and all at the same time. It sounds like you're going through a very hard time. Maybe it's best just to accept yourself for where you are right now and just be okay with the fact that shit is shitty right now. It's okay to be sad and to feel...
Isn’t this just their reaction to the US Friday? Samsung and SK Hynix (their two index leaders) were downstream of all the AI pullbacks.
I don’t think it’s indicative of tomorrow’s opening but wtf do I know?
One of my friends was put into a bunch of crazy funds with leverage and wonky shit and all of them had expense ratios of like 1.3-2.0% and YTD gains of like 5%. Meanwhile no brainer easy af VOO is up 9.5% YTD.
Fucking scabs.

Sadly, most of that happened literally a few months before I vested 🥴
For straight up investing you’re right. I do have some first strike nonsense as well as different countries and “collectible” gold and silver. Investing is personal and I liked some of the “fun” or “pretty” pieces I’ve collected even if it cost me a little bit more on premiums. But I also...

Did the exact same thing. Changed car insurance, homeowners, cut xbox, geforce, netflix, spotify, etc. Saved a shit ton and I'm just trying to live without so much excess bullshit. Tired of fucking subscriptions everywhere.
I had this happen to me late last year. I had a bunch of really nice tech stocks that I purchased in 2018-2020 that had massive runs and were now bulking up my portfolio. I made the decision to shift more conservatively into VOO/SPMO/VXUS and I sleep better at night. I'm not in bonds or SCHD or...
I remember this board being early on Breaking Bad (myself included) and recognizing early that it was a slow burn and loving it (myself included). It didn’t hit right away with the normies but then it picked up and more people took notice as S2 and S3 had increased standard thrills.
