It shows that your family is relatively rational. Secondly, do you need others to understand what you do? Reminds me of a line: Do you need a reason to love someone? Need it? Need it?
The domestic stock market is actually very immature. This is definitely because the state is still in control and has not completely left the fluctuations and increases of the stock market to the market itself. Therefore, it is very difficult to control the domestic stock market. If you only speculate in the short term and have little investment or you have a set of mature skills, you can try to continue. If you don't meet the conditions and just read basic stock and futures books and feel that you are the future stock god, then you'd better give up. Benjamin Greer clearly pointed out in "The Intelligent Investor" that investing and speculation are completely different. In the examples cited in the book in the past 50 years, most of the speculators lost money. And there are more people who make profits as long-term investors. Therefore, if you are speculating in the short term unless you have a strong sense of the market, it is not recommended to continue.
If your main business is investing, you need to consider your own personality to determine your investment balance. Use the ratio of bonds to stocks to reduce the impact of short-term fluctuations. The advantage is that you will lose money. A few won’t be too much, and the family won’t blame them too much. But this kind of investment is not about short-term profit. Of course, during this period, you can enhance your own skills by studying the stock market knowledge system. Finally, you will find that most of the experience books on foreign stock markets are not applicable to the domestic market. After all, the invisible hand of our stock market is too powerful.
Of course, the simplest thing is that if you grab money from the stock market, your family will not understand but may support you. It’s human nature to not be too early if you don’t have any profit.
