What does your family say? Do they know? Do you consider yourself a Trader with a gambling habit? Do you consider yourself always to be a trader? Do you feel Suicidal? I wanted to put all of your posts together (31 minutes of time) up to this point. Michael B. 06-28-06 04:47 PM i've dropped 400k since may 10th and i'm throwing in the towell dead broke. i was long everything from mrvl to brcm and was margined huge. i just couldn't take a lose and now it's over. i wish all the best of luck 06-28-06 04:54 PM i left with 15k. i just froze. i hedged nothing as i was paralzed. it seems like a bad dream. waking up every morning with butterflies. i've put my family in grave risk now as my gambling addiction wiped me out. 06-28-06 05:02 PM why would i lie? i thought maybe my exp could save someone else the pain i've gone threw 06-28-06 05:18 PM i'm in shock now to be honest and have no idea what i'll do. i've already started taking cash advances on my credit cards to live on the next few months till i figure out a course of action. i actually had some hope till yesterday and today as mrvl collapsed almost 10 pts
Well there is no use being a smart ass to someone who has f**ked himself up the butt so royally with real losses. I cannot understand addiction to 'throw away' gambling; its a subliminal & urgent demand by the individual to expose & prove himself as a self loser. From such self flagellation the good news is that it will lead to better things for Hedgeking and a learnt perspective.
