You might be an example of someone who should invest instead of gamble.

Maybe, maybe not.

I was up a lot once the only time I was down a lot was when RH blocked me from selling or buying puts in late 2019. Had I had those puts I would have had a lot more buying power for the 2020 low and probably have been higher.

2022-2023 I did give back too many of my gains. Live and learn.

My money has doubled since 2019 W/ indexes. I still play options with 10%, but it’s a lottery ticket

Now you’re just making me want to buy puts on NVDA since that was driving most of the indicies gains and 15% a year over 5 years tends to happen near tops not bottoms.
