I invested 1000€ in Crypto once. I missed a peak where I could've cashed out 30k€, I ended up exiting with 800€, a 200€ loss instead of 29k€ profit.
I also briefly considered putting 100$ in bitcoin when I read a story about it hitting $1.
A lot of success trains have passed me by. I haven't ruined myself by missing them, my story is unremarkable. There's 100 stories like mine for every success. There's 100 more when someone lost their life savings instead.
Risk produces big winners, but the winners are only a tiny part of the picture.
