As someone who held massive cash (in proportion to my networth) previously, it feels scary to see that I'm running out of cash.
For context, just 1 year ago back in Aug 2020, I talked about having $300k CASH before reaching 30 and the breakdown is here.
Few days after I posted, I came upon Tiger Brokers (see my guide and referral here) and have invested heavily since. I grew my Tiger Brokers portfolio from $0 to $28k (one month later) to $70k (five months later) to $95k (eight months later) to $136k (eleven months later) to $170k now (1 year 3 mths later).
And unfortunately, I am sitting on paper losses amounting to close to $9,000 now 🙃as a bulk of my portfolio is in HK/China stocks 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃I'm the donkey.
I've depleted more than half of my CASH warchest just on stocks alone.
I also started my crypto journey in Feb this year....
