Going back to ground zero

Losing all the money I had in this thing was extremely hard to deal with at first, but now I realize it was the best thing that ever happened to me.
Even when I had lots of money I was still unhappy..The novelty wore off fast on all the shinny stuff I was buying. And most importantly money will not get you laid without confidence...Unless you pay for it.
When I lost everything it made me start all over and I was forced to either sink or swim..I quickly got a job in the oil patch doing instrumention/operating...I worked for 2.5 years and got to a point again where I was debt free and had some excess money...Then I quit my high paying patch job and now I am a personal trainer, which is something I truly love.
I don't make a lot of money, but I help people get healthy, and I love going to work. For me it's like not even working...And most importantly I get more young hot tail then any rich guy I know...Unless they are paying for it. Lol
My point is that people need to let this go, and move on.
There was a saying on a movie once. It went something like this.
"Why do people die when they are stranded in the woods?"
"They die of shame."
They sit there forever thinking about how they got into this mess. They sit there and do nothing and die, and not do think very thing that could have saved them...."Think"
If you want to talk about investing then go physically help people in some way or another...Helping others is the best investment you'll ever make....Ghandi helped people for free, and when he died had 1000s of people by his side that loved him....You watch when a greedy clown like Donald Trump is on his death bed...When he dies there will be 1000s by his side alright...Only cause they are hoping for a handout, not because they love and respect him.
Forget about SLI and go help and invest in people, and you will be happy...I promise you.
