Dude did everything right. Saved up, controlled his spending, executed a sound investment plan with discipline, and now he's facing ruin.

FIRE is impossible. Retirement is impossible.

There was nothing sound about his investment plan. He missed out on doubling his gains. He should have been fine but his stock moves destroyed 1mm in wealth. Then he got hit by a routine correction and is now poor.

obsessing over your portfolio to the point of panic selling and buying at the top is a destructive habit. i sympathize with having trouble resisting when you don't have other stimulation. but it's basically the same reason addicts get pwned.

I like it-- there could be a fish burger stand on the shore and Tommy could supply it each day with his haul from fishing and also there could be a hamburger option for those who prefer that (sysco slop isn't just for America). One employee to cook/sell the food and it's profitable in no time.
