I lost 100 million VND that my husband and I saved for a whole year because of trading.

I went to bed late, couldn't concentrate on my work during the day, only wanting to check my phone to see the index, it haunted me even in my dreams.

I lost 100 million VND, the money my husband and I saved for a whole year, in a short time because of what is called trading. I do not consider it bad, in fact, this is a way to make a living for many people, but for someone without enough knowledge like me, it is more about luck than gambling.

Until now, I have always saved, collecting every penny until I learned about this game. I only played with a small amount of money, accepting that if I lost, it would be a lesson. But then, from profits of 1 USD, 10 USD, then 100 USD, I became increasingly greedy. When I was making money, I wanted to keep playing because I was excited, and when I was losing, I wanted to keep playing to recover, and then I gradually lost more and more... The amount reached 100 million VND was when I came to my senses.

I cried and confessed to my husband, deleted the app, and was determined not to play again. I wish I had never known about this game, wish I had been calmer and clearer-minded, wish I had not played based on emotions like that. My husband did not blame me, but seeing him work hard, I blamed myself even more.

I hope everyone, especially young people, if you want to become a trader, learn how to invest properly, don't turn it into a game of chance, because you will never win against the market. And absolutely do not try to recover by any means when your mind is not clear.

This will be a big lesson for me. After three months of playing, I not only lost 100 million VND but also lost time, completely absorbed in it. I went to bed late, couldn't concentrate on my work during the day, only wanting to check my phone to see the index, it haunted me even in my dreams. There was joy when I made a profit, but in the end, I lost everything. A lesson with an expensive tuition fee for me.
