    Don’t forget dumbasses like me who started gambling while stuck at home during covid. I buy ~$20 of speculative stocks every few months just for the thrill. It’s basically the same thing as buying lottery tickets except it keeps me entertained for months or years watching them spike and fall.

    How’s it going? Not well. I’m sure I’ve lost more than I’ve made but it was money that I was okay with losing… same as a casino I guess.
