My wife too is not a gambler. Does not like me doing this. Watches all the money like a hawk. This is my play money as she calls it. A hobby. I am forbidden to add any more to it. So there goes dollar cost averaging. But she has the right to be skeptical because of my investing past. Won some, lost more. All my early retirement funds gone. Took me years to rebuild them. I managed to squirrel enough money away to trade again.
My sob story here is that I bought my paltry 100k shares of ENZC for only $1300 bucks back in early Dec.'20. Then the rocket ride that took it up to around $80k last February. Was on top of the world, felt like a king. Then, like skiing down Mt. Everest rode it all the way back down to under $10k. I managed another 50k shares spread between all my accounts. Sitting with some profit looking forward to a whole lot more. Believe me, I've kicked my ass pretty good thinking about it. Its that fear of selling and missing out that I can't shake. I held on to bad stocks way too long that wasted a lot of time and money. I've been in several other stocks that I sold way too early. Stuff like that kills me. Thats why they call the OTC a casino. Full of big Winners and losers.
