Love - A game?

Well maybe I've been studying Finance a bit too much lately, but have you ever compared the sharemarket and the game of love?

Look at current investors, having invested all their money into the sharemarket, they're now left with like next to nothing. The sharemarket has crashed, and their investments are now diminshed. Gone.

Look at me. Having invested so much in her, what am I left with now?

But I guess that'sthe chance we all have to take. Risk, uncertainty - they're all fundamental to the sharemarket, just as they are to the game of love.

If we never invest in the sharmarket, we'll miss out on many opportunities. And of course we may lose some money, but by investing, it also gives us the chance to profit from favourable movements in the market.

Just as in love, if we never take the plunge, we will miss out on opportunities. The opportunity to find someone, to find your significant other. The opportunity to feel loved, to be loved. The opportunity to know that you can instil your trust in someone else, and know that they can instil their trust in you. All these opportunities will go begging if you never take the chance and invest. Of course, things may not go as you planned, but at least you know you've tried. That at least you were willing to put it all on the line for love ~ whatever that may mean.

Remember, risk/chance/uncertainty are all elements of life. Sometimes, we just have to be willing to put it out there, to put our money, our hearts, in certain circumstances, certain places, which are out of our control. Sometimes, we just have to let go, and follow it, wherever it may lead. Because maybe, just maybe, the outcome just may be favourable. We may just make a profit. We may just be able to find the one. Our soulmate. Love.

Never let what has happened in the past deter you from investing. Sure you may have made some losses in the past, you may have been emotionally hurt, but the good times are just around the corner. The sharemarket will bounce back, stronger than before. You just have to believe in it. To have confidence in it. It may not happen tomorrow. It may not happen next month. It may not happen by next year. But sometime in the future, the sharemarket will bounce back, and once again, we will all be able to profit from it again. Once again, we can experience some favourable outcomes. Once again, we will be able to love and be loved.

Give up on the market and you will give up on all this. The chance for a happier life. A better life. Something wonderful. Something great. Something beautiful.

Don't let these chances pass by, cause one they go, they're gone forever.

Live a life without regrets, invest now! (Actually hold off a few months before investing in the sharemarket. I expect the downward trend to continue for a few months. Expect a small pickup around December-January).

So I hope this explains a few more things to you. Hopefully, it's revealed a bit more of me to you.
