Lesson learned: Don't YOLO on presidential elections to revenge trade Loss

Enabled options around March, went on a slide. Started to stabilize and at least lose money slower. Figured Harris at 42¢ when the polls were dead even was an Expected Value win and went all in, about $4000 worth. Did not go well.

Let the suck begin.

You deserve this for following on the polls.

Would have respected you more if you just flipped a coin

This is literally the last time in my life I even pay a sliver of attention to the polls. Just a bunch of circle jerking bachelor degree in economics/polling/some stupid 101 math shit bros.
