It’s been 3 years since I had to tell my wife, parents, and in laws….

Friends, fellow church volunteers, etc…. About how I was the downfall of my families financial future.

I got caught up in the post GameStop hype, and stayed for the ride.

Rode every loss with… as long as I can make my minimums, most people have debt and I have none so what’s a few delayed credit card payments.

The irony is my chart doesn’t even show my up time. I was up ~ $40k when GameStop announced a stock split over a year after the crazy boom, but now the time line doesn’t even show the spike beating my downhill spiral. By shear dumb luck I was up $40k with a total account of $60k. I even bragged. In a week after I was below $5k in total value.

From there. Delayed every payment and made the minimums cause I knew my day would come. But it never did, or was never substantial enough to bail me out of what I had done.…
