A stock trading experience that will always be remembered

Every amateur investor and speculator will have many unforgettable memories about the stock market. What I remember most is not how I made money and lost money, but the story of my parents' stock trading a few years ago. At that time, I bought a computer for my family. After my father and mother spent a lot of effort to finally learn how to use the mouse, turn on and off the computer, they began to buy and sell stocks according to my instructions. In fact, it was also to give them something to do after they had just retired. But the story later was the same as most stock investors. They always made money at the beginning, invested more and more, and finally lost 50,000 yuan. They completely gave up and never traded stocks again. This made me regret it very much, and I knew that no matter how much money I gave them, it would not make up for the feeling of losing money. After that, I gradually learned the principle of trying not to recommend stocks to others.

Seth Klarman said it well: compared to focusing on returns, paying attention to risks is the most important thing.

September 25, 2010: Time flies. My father has passed away for more than two months. I will never have the above opportunity again. Life is like this. There will always be regrets, and they will grow deeper with time. Even though you may not think it's a big deal at the time.
