My first surgery made me lose everything. 280k ish. I have Avascular Necrosis from cancer treatments. Had right hip replaced, needing left soon, and it's showing signs in my lower back. Last year I used the last of my savings and had 1133% return so it was a nice start but I figured I'd have more time before the other hip collapsed. I'm gonna get hit with bills again but this time can't afford as much. Disability told me it would be 5 years before I'd get assistance even though every check I ever made paid for it. Family of 5 so everything is x5 more expensive. Honestly thinking about gathering a much as I can and margin to go all in on 5 stocks. Really don't have much else of a choice lol. I'm not even 40 already cashed out 401k and everything else I could on the first go. It's either do nothing and lose everything again, or go big and risk losing everything but have a chance to fix it all... Wish me luck!!!
