A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Not quite. I stopped playing around with buying and selling so much and stayed with a few well known stocks. I didn't lose any more, but the growth was extremely slow. Hence the nature of the stock market. If you try to play it to make money fast, you really really need to know what you're doing or you'll lose a fortune.
