know that feel, my weekend is 60% studying stocks, options and commodities markets now, with 30% sleep and 10% masturbation

>>1321868
I don't know that feel.

I dollar cost average

>>1321870
It's literally all I think about now. I hear something on the news, I need to go investigate because of stocks. I hear something interesting from someone, I investigate it because of stocks.

>tfw stocks consume your entire life now

>>1321876
>being interested in stocks is a bad thing

You're learning a very valuable skill at a rate that very few ever do.

>>1321868
happened to me once.. market closed during a bull run.. wanted to sell.. got scurred it would be traded to hell by insiders and i'd be picking the scraps. couldnt sleep. Not a good feeling a all

>>1321868

You have a gambling addiction.

Just go to a casino on the weekend to get your fix.

>>1321868
>he doesnt just go to the casino during the weekend

it's basically the same thing

I can relate to all these feels

>DUDE LMAO JUST GAMBLE YOUR HARD EARNED CALCULATED PROFITS
??????

Don't ever get into futures then.
You'll be checking that shit whenever you wake up in the middle of the night.

>>1322235
well shit

So fanatical stock traders. I guess you are pretty rich right now? Surely that fanatical stock picking must be paying off.

>>1322075
Stock picking is gambling.

I think it's a part of the education process. When I first got into the stock market I was similar to OP, and definitely over traded, but that was years ago. Now I'm a boring investor and much happier (and doing better financially).

>>1323235
It's funny how they spend so much time and effort and don't even beat the market, kek

BUT THE MARKET, IT ABIDES BY CAUSALITY

Dude, that's not right. How long have you been at this? I get being Fervent and racing to get through the pain period of learning as fast as you can, there is a lot of materiel. But addicted is never a word I'd have used.

I'm reading some underlying psychological issues here you might need to explore. because
You don't want to be trading with your brains image of your depression era grandma whispering shit in your subconscious or some other random psych BS.

It is not bait to point out that stockpicking is gambling and

>sex
>physiological need

>>1323521
can't even get my memes right

>>1323570
You masturbate to cope

>>1323585
i masturbate maybe twice a month m8 and i don't go crazy if i go without it's not a physiological need like sleep

>>1323596
Are you a woman?

I'd argue that not getting any is probably a sign that you're not able to achieve things higher on the pyramid.
For example General Health next rung up. There are 0 studies that say a healthy sex life doesn't improve life.
I for one feel much better after a good romp, my blood pressure goes down, my cortisol goes down, my headaches go away, I smile more and am able to function at a higher level.

Being intimate with a significant other is even better. almost instantaneously gets you the purple if everything else is normal.

You can have an unstable pyramid.

I have yet to meet a true a-sexual who wasn't simply sick through self inflicted behavior.

>>1323644
i'm a man and stable as fuck m8

>>1323647
That's nice.

Back on topic. How long have you been tradign?

>>1323660
i don't trade i just came here to point out that maslow's hierarchy of needs is disproved pseudoscience and sincerely question your intellect and trading ability for still subscribing to it in this day and age

>>1323660
Are you Chinese?

Can someone explain to a newfriend what all these words and numbers mean?

>>1323644
Based sheng at it again

>>1323666
I'm not saying an 1950's model of human behavior is gospel truth. They're models man. This one probably inaccurate when you get down to the biochem, but models get to be models because they are usually precise. I would never apply causality to this drawing.

Precise, is useful, if you know the limits of the model.

Old tools don't stop working, we just have better tools as time goes on.

intelligence might be overrated, but at least compared to my peers i think it would be at least a 9/10. I wish i had enough discipline to finally get down to 65kg, but at 70 i get to eat shit

>>1323715
maslow's never got to be "a model" in any prestegious sense of the word so don't compare it to newtonian physics you hack

>>1323914
Look I'm agreeing with you. We know that it can't measure up to the rigor of physics, because we can torture rocks and projectiles and tops all day and it hurts no one except the physicists trying to figure it out.
But if we were to really study humans to isolate variables, we'd have to go well beyond the Nazi's in terms of experimentation. our best proxies today are small mammals. and while attaching printer heads to cats with their skulltops removed gets us pretty close to usable info, doing it to statistically relevant numbers of humans might be a tall order.

pic somewhat related.

Yeah, but he can't play casino on his phone (at least, not in the US) unless it's poker, and poker isn't chiefly a game of chance, so he'd probably lose.

his punishment, in the last episode the psychic overlords, as punishment for his leadership of the queerrat rebellion, reform his structure into a formless mass of exposed nerves and memory, such that his experience is that of boundless pure exponential pain. He also remembers that his rebellion is the cause of the vaporization of every one he's ever known, loved, and everyone they may have associated with.


I juxtapose Squealer's punishment with what I imagine the human experience of having your brain probed and manipulated to further the cause of scientifically rigorous psychology, in statistically relevant means, on the order of Millions of people for the reason of acquiring the truth of the human mind.

I believe these levels far exceed the highest natural pain thresholds of bursts of substance P - pic related.
