Today, I tried to sell 2,000 options contracts, but I bought them instead, resulting in a big loss. FML

Halloween

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

#2, I don't only because I'm 12. Could someone please explain it for me (and not dumbed down, cause I'm actually one of the few grade school kids who actually pays attention in class and knows something about finance).

You're 12. The only thing you know about finance is the allowance you receive from your parents.

Actually, he's 16 or 17 now, so he probably knows more about finance than he did in 2009...

I doubt it would be that difficult to grasp, you probably wouldn't need to know a whole lot about finance (if you do anyway)

he's had plenty of time to figure it out

Options are not easy to explain. They are a right but not an obligation to purchase a set number of shares or goods at a predetermined price at a future date from another party.

the OP had the option of being interesting, he didn't exercise it.

ehhh 9th! haha and its been 2 and a half years.

I an 10th I would like to thank every one who supported me threw this time! You guys rock!

Yeah. I'm 11th and I'm posting this 2 and a half years after the FML was posted. Not much of an accomplishment there.
