Saw a story, pretty interesting: A small business owner, during the time his wife was pregnant, his wife wouldn’t let him have any action, not even let him handle it himself. He couldn’t hold it in and ended up going out to hire a prostitute. While hiring, he developed feelings for a girl. After some deep conversations, he found out that this 25-year-old girl had gotten into massive debt because of playing with crypto and had no choice but to do this to pay it off. But he noticed that the money she earned was partly used to pay off her debt, and the rest was thrown back into exchanges to keep trading. The guy couldn’t understand—if she was already drowning in debt, why would she keep playing? The girl told him that it’s thrilling, and there’s always a chance to turn things around. At her peak, she had won over 100,000 yuan. The guy didn’t believe it, thought there was no way it could be that addictive, so he decided to try trading contracts himself to see what it felt like. Under the girl’s recommendation, he registered on an exchange, deposited a few thousand yuan, and started trading contracts. At first, he made money. The thrill of opening positions and the joy of making profits were indeed addictive, and he got deeply hooked. The end result? Over 3 years, he lost 4 million yuan, shut down his factory, sold his house, and borrowed from credit cards, online loans, and even relatives—ending up with 1.2 million yuan in debt.
