I went from dollar cost averaging into the s&p 500 at the beginning of 2020 to buying call options on blackberry a month ago. BLACK BERRY -- a phone I used to own a decade ago. Euphoria in the stock market can make even the most sensible of us turn into fools. Sad part is, the distraction from quick riches kept me from focusing on what I love to do, continue to build the career that took me six years to build patiently. Great piece.
