And here I sit, semi retired (but with nicely increasing workload) waiting for my biotech to 10 bag .
I can be equally greedy but I distinguish between what I consider "good money" that is lifetime savings + super e.t.c. and "play money" from speculative windfalls and the like.
Perhaps I do feel sorry for people who speculate with "good money", then lose, then head off to a Centrelink office but it's a highly irritating form of sorry.
Should my share speculations go to plan I would certainly consider some investment in property if and when that market completely tanks on higher global interest rates and soft employment numbers. Perhaps I will then feel a level of irrational guilt when purchasing at someone else's fire sale.
