3. That is the biggest problem

3. That is the biggest problem for me.
I bought into Top Glove without keeping close tabs and had to sell at a loss.

For the other points, I am not illogical, I accept that I do not know enough and am always willing to read more, or have other perspectives guide my actions. I am happy to give get-rich-quick opportunities like meme stock or risky assets a miss (hearing about individuals who bought trump coins and getting burnt was shocking)

Another point I believe in is: do NOT invest in what you cannot afford to lose, especially if you cannot afford to pay attention or read up, if you dump your savings in and lose it all, that would be absolutely fatal.
