knock out the first major loss early, then it's smooth sailing for the rest of the year, right?

dropped 10k into what looked like a solid opportunity. turns out it wasn't.

no regrets though—just part of the game. time to move on to the next one.

Ha, 10k is just tuition fees anyway. Anyway, the earlier you lose and the sooner you get ahead, the better... But I’ve got this mindset now, really, it's better than most people.

According to the Kelly criterion, starting the year with a loss can actually reduce subsequent decision biases. Bear Bear analyzed historical data, and this wave is actually the golden window for dollar-cost averaging.

Ha, does this logic work? Even when losing, everything still goes smoothly. I've never encountered that before.
