Imagine having invested in basics early in your 20s... When you are in the full form, without limits, without preconceptions... With your qualities, you would be a millionaire before you're 30! 😃

I was actually in the local stock market for a couple of years when the financial crisis came more like in 2010-2011 around here. Not taking profits... then either, and lost quite a bit, because I had to sell around 2014 still at a big loss, to buy a house when a good opportunity arose (family helped with that). And my family wasn't happy at all with the losses (even if they were my money), they are very risk averse, in general, so their strong opinions and digesting my losses kept me away from investing for several years. Even now, I hesitate to "go big" into something. So, it probably still haunts me that early loss.
