At the age of 37, in the deep of night, the moment I opened my account, that string of 8 digits shone on the screen, glaring like a slap that woke up all my past selves.
Did I make it? Have I turned my life around? Logically, I should be excited, I should be overjoyed, I should shout out like those people in the square screenshots, "It's taking off!"
But I didn't. In that second, my mind went boom—I flashed back to that extremely difficult night in 2018.
At that time, I had no confidence, no background, no resources,
even my imagination of the future was as thin as paper.
The 50,000 I had in hand was borrowed.
It wasn't an investment, it was a burden;
It wasn't courage, it was pressure;
clutched in my hand—
it was like a hot potato, so hot that I couldn't sleep all night.
The first time I opened the trading interface,
my heart raced like I was taking a college entrance exam.
Every K-line seemed to mock me:
"You, a small retail investor, think you can change your destiny?"
When the market trembled slightly, my palms were sweaty;
if my account was a little red, I thought I was about to get rich;
if it turned a little green, my mindset shattered.
At that time, I couldn't even bear to click on the words "stop loss,"
because that wasn't a stop loss—
it was admitting that I might not be able to afford the losses.
I will always remember that night:
the dim yellow light, the broken chair, my fingers frozen and numb,
and me staring blankly at the K-line alone.
That was the real starting point—
embarrassment, anxiety, even a bit of despair.
Many people see my 8-digit number today and only envy the result,
but no one sees—
how I went from a debt of 50,000, being beaten down to the point of questioning life during those nights,
how I held on, how I endured, how I carved out a path bit by bit.
Now I have come out of it, what about you?
Ask yourself, are you willing to be a lifetime of chives? Or do you want to become the winner who laughs last?
