started my journey in 2017, got wrecked twice by the stock that shall not be named in 2021 and 2024. Started DCAing and investing like a normal person at the start of 2025 and within about a years time i’ve managed to climb out of the hole. special thanks to $MU ❤️

Congratulations on rejoining the ranks of gamblers
Congrats on the 68 cents. How many hours did you work for it?
Bro cooking with a 68 dollar account lol
Congratulations on showing us nothing
So you have $7000 in your account after 9 years? I think it’s time you got a job at Wendys
It took you 10 years to recover $6800?
Try Wendys, you’d have made a lot more.
Put it all on red!
“Investing like a normal person”
“MU”
You’re on a hot streak bro keep going
Now you can get out and stop being an idiot
0.68 return in 10 years let’s go!
That $.68 climb looks real tough.
You just want to cry when you finally see that green $3.78 peaking above the line!

Congrats?
You still owe capital gains tax so you’re net negative bud
A winner is you.
Nice, still negative if you account for opportunity cost though
Get out soon honestly be even and then just index fund like a human being and escape red for another lost decade
You go boy !!
Well that makes one of us
Can’t be called a comeback without a setback. Now sell everything, drive to a casino, and put it on black. Then once you win (because you will) you can say you doubled your money after 10 years in the market. Thank me later.
bro you’re BEYOND MEAT
Nice going, broh, I’ve just finished my 10th comeback into the green in 4 years, so I can kinda relate. 😂
Absolutely atrocious results. You must have been insanely irresponsible.

Just keep moving forward now. Try not too look back. I know I’m still climbing back but I still feel stained.
SELL, SELL, SELL!
At some point you have to consider the opportunity cost of that money just sitting there for 10 years, just to break even (not including inflation).
i thought you were gonna say intc bag holder
I would do anything to be up at this point 🙁
Toxic nasty garbage people in this thread. Their friends and family failed them royally.
Congrats OP. I’m sure it feels good to break even. Good luck moving forward.
Actually, at an average inflation rate of 3%:
(1.03)^10 == ~ 1.35
1.03 ~ 1.35^(1/10)
~1.35-1
~ 35%
You lost 35% of your original spending power. So you’ve a little ways towards green.
You can make it 69 cents
Downvoted for cropping your screenshot like an idiot
