You know what kills more portfolios than going to zero?

Sitting pretty on your past gains.

That warm fuzzy feeling from last cycle's wins? It's a trap. Makes you sluggish. Makes you complacent. Tricks you into thinking the war's over when you've only won a battle.

Here's the kicker—the game's still running. Market dynamics shift. New players enter. Old strategies stop working.

And while you're busy replaying your highlight reel, someone hungrier is already adapting to the new rules.

To be honest, the money I made during the last bull run is all lost now... I wish I hadn't been so confident back then.

Really, living off past profits is the most damnable thing.

Indeed, lying on past profits is the most comfortable yet the most deadly... The money I earned last year has now become my shackles.

The money earned during the last bull run is really more painful now than losing money... Constantly thinking about the past victories makes it hard to keep up with the rhythm.
