Post# of 94785
This is my last post ever on any stock board.
I have lost 40% of my entire portfolio and almost 100% of my non 401 K account . I will never buy a stock for myself personally . I also got creamed in 2000. My greed and fear caused me to take very risky behavior. I have to say i am innerly glad and this may turn out to be the greatest day of my life . I have a great job making a six fiqure income and i have a small cash cushion in the bank . Who knows i may even get a few thousand back here . But getting back to this may be the best thing that ever happened to me . All of my life i have been a prisoner to some demon . 20 years ago i gave up alcohol and drugs but i replaced them with a money addiction . The last few days i hit a bottom and have had to surrender to that and i actually feel a new freedom . I am now free not to worry so much about having enough money to be " comfortable " for a guy like me there is never enough comfort . Checking my account every day i was a prisoner .I have gone back to meditating and have rebegun being the real person that i was put on this earth to be.This loss has freed me . I know 90% of you wont understand what i am writing but 10% will . My goal is to live very simply one day in the mountains of Costa Rica . Our simple little house is almost done .I just need 6 more years to get my youngest through middle and high school . Thank God i have my health and my family and today i was given my freedom.
Good luck to you fine people .
