"How did you get liquidated again? I told you not to mess with futures." "Just listen to me next time." "It's fine, you only lost a few tens of thousands."
"Damn, I really feel for you... Wasn't your mind just blank the moment you got liquidated? I was the same last time, stared at the screen all night without sleeping. If you want to vent or need a hug, I'm here for you." "How much did you lose? It's okay, I can lend you some."
Did you get it, friends? 😂
