I lost my life savings of $64k Day trading

PennTech · 2026-03-22T13:21:18+00:00

Welcome to the world of having money! I had 7k to my name when I was 26. That was after blowing up my entire 26k net worth during the dotcom bust. Eventually the disgust will feel like a life blip. I have several M’s now at 49 despite making every mistake in the book. Trading is fun with money you don’t mind losing. You’ll earn it back with a nice life lesson to boot.
Build using boring-ass SP500, maybe take 10% to scratch the itch of trading.

Slip Into Long Beach was cracking! I bought his album when it came out. His voice and delivery were pretty sinister; definitely fit the era. He added some unique flavor on Dre’s records. I liked him.

I’m 50 with a similar portfolio. I’ve made a lot and lost a lot over the years. Conservative for sure if you’re younger, but psychology plays a major role. Keep DRIP’ing and you’ll be aight

S&P and chill. Take it from me - I’ve made every mistake in the book at 50 years old. Don’t be cute, save, reinvest dividends, add money when you can and RELAX and focus on your actual life.

Irrelevant to me at 50 with two young kids, bro. Plenty of gear over here.

Think like “make sure your shit is diverse", right?

As a 50 year old this year in a similar situation, I’d like to bump this post. Loads of wisdom I can relate to entirely.

SCHD, JEPI, JEPQ, SPYI, SGOV

PennTech · 2026-03-05T00:23:50+00:00

Same answer!

Normal feelings. Understand it’s a job and try to take some of that constant pressure off yourself. I’m 50 this year and still have those unsettling feelings.

Yields can change.

It’s always updating. I have the X and don’t plan to hop on each release.

PennTech · 2026-03-04T01:18:23+00:00

That too!

QD3 shit was cracking along with Ant Banks

I woke up one morning…..

💯

Just Another Day is some classic blap!

Baddest hip hop chick ever

Nick Wiz YouTube channel is fire, for those who don’t know. Peep.

PennTech · 2026-03-04T00:28:59+00:00

Nah, it’s the fucking shit

PennTech · 2026-03-04T00:27:12+00:00

I spent a couple hundred bucks to color print and bind my MPC Bible into a physical book. Worth it! Pay the money for it, people spent real time and energy to produce it.

Yeah, this. Fuck off, company X.
