Bought a couple stocks in college for a few weeks until I discovered options. Got fucked multiple times instead of just buying VOO or SPY or anything else. Today is the day I see green on my all since 2018.

Or he could have put it in his 401k. (X for doubt that he has one).

Or he could have put it in FXIAX and VFIAX like rational moron.

Or could have got to Vegas. Have 1/4th of it stolen by a hooker, 1/4 of it lost at the slots, 1/4 lost due to cocaine cost and have a hell of a story and some cash leftover. But now he'sj acking it in his apartment alone crying about his losses.

Bruh i've just put everything in $VFIAX after maxing out 401k/roth ira/HSA, auto re-invest dividends. I look at it like once every 3 months, never change anything, my 5 yr average is like 14% returns and I'm up ~150k >:)
