What do I do /biz/? I saw it as an easy buck, I really didn't anticipate this. I feel so fucking stupid. I bet about 2/3 of my savings and I don't even fucking support hilary, I just thought she was going to win. I nearly feel like offing myself

Now?

What options do you think you have?

The only one I see is to eat the loss and attempt to learn something from it. Like there is no sure thing.

What is your lost bet vs yearly income?
>>
>>1610276
only thing I've learned is no more gambling

>>1610284
No yearly income. I'm a university student. This came from what I used to pay for my tuition fees. I'll probably drop out now or look for aid

never ever EVER spend money on a market you can't hedge in some way.

Well there you go.

Hopefully that;s worth 18.5k to you because that's what you paid for it and there are no refunds.

>>1610316
Oh well it's an important life lesson I guess. Money can be earned back but these two things will always remain

1)Never gamble against your instincts
2)pol is always right

>Never gamble against your instincts

You are doing it wrong

Should be

>Just gamble for fun with spare money
>>
>>1610292

Why did you do this? Didn't you see Brexit? The odds on Hillary were crap anyways, and you put all of this. You could have literally but half the money on Trump, and if he loses, fine, but if he wins, you would have cashed out even harder.

Why didn't you at least split your bet? Lose 9k, and with the 9k you bet on Trump you probably could have broke even, or more depending on when you placed the bet.
>>
>>1610326
God you fucks depress me.

You don't gamble. You take calculated risks based upon careful consideration and the best information you can get. If you take no risks good luck ever seeing any reward, if you take no major risks then maybe you will piece together wealth in 3 generations.

If you want to be wealthy you MUST take large risks and you MUST be right. You can mitigate risk with intelligence but chaos (luck) will always be a factor so you must consider carefully what you are personally willing to risk to get what you want.

>You don't gamble. You take calculated risks based upon careful consideration and the best information you can get
That's gambling you retard. Gambling doesn't mean 50/50 odds, it means putting your investment up for a potential loss based on events outside of your control for the chance of a quick return.

This is actually an important less of EV. Your bet here didn't make sense.

Try to salvage what you can this semester. Don't ever drop out but try to find a way to take a leave of absence due to financial reasons if you absolutely have to.

Honestly, it's better that he learns it now vs when he actually has money.

there were people on /pol/ doing the same shit on the night of Brexit. It sucks OP but just think of it as an expensive life lesson. When you're 70 years old 18k won't mean much to you, but you'll have lived a full life in which this painful memory had influenced many of your decisions for the better.

This is great advice. Look at this anon, made a killing betting on Trump, and he had no money, he was 60k in debt, borrowed money, and cleared 250k. It looks like overnight success but he ran up debt loaning it to people and from having a failed business, so this shit isn't overnight, it takes time and you can make it.

This bet, risking 18k to get 2k, makes no sense. Not to mention, if you were going to bet 18k, why weren't you following the election like a hawk? Going on Pol, the donald, /r/politics, watching the news, etc, getting a real feel for what was happening.

You win or you learn. This time you learn, next time you win...hopefully :P.
>>
I'm just pissed I didn't bet at all. I should have, I was all over /pol/ for months. I saw the momentum and movement first hand. I don't know shit about sports but I could have gained with this. Oh well.
>>
Gotta admit, I'm glad I didn't bet.
I totally would have put money on Hillary too winning, by the time I even started to seriously consider it though I was too late

Was actually planning to go to /pol/ to laugh at the retards who bet all their money Trump after he lost, who I guess weren't retards after all.

I'm right there with you, hell, I was responsible for a few social media items that really damaged Hillary.

I did, truly, expect a Trump victory despite all the doomsayers bombarding us since his candidacy was announced. I've been a faithful supporter since ~feb, but I thought Trump COULD squeak out a NARROW victory...

I didn't know that he WOULD pull off an absolute shitstomping. I feel accomplished because I predicted it correctly, and for what I believe to be the right reasons, but I feel bad because I misread the magnitude of the situation and I believed that it would be on small margins. (Although in fairness I expected voter fraud to be more prevalent, then again, in all my electioneering, I hadn't met a single enthusiastic Hillary supporter in real life, so maybe her pathetic showing was the result of mostly fraud.)

What are odds on bets that Trump will build the wall out of salt extracted from liberal tears? We've got more than enough to encase the coastline of the entire US at this point.

Ok I will admit I was pulling everyone's legs here. That's not me in the OP I got it from a /pol/ thread during the election m. Great advice anyways guys

Sorry op that sucks.

Never gamble again. No such thing as a sure thing in gambling.

Even at the end I only figured it was a 50/50, but clearly that meant I should have bet on Trump given the existing betting odds.

Sadly, no such bets possible in Spain. :(

Anyway, I honestly cannot understand what people were thinking when making a Hillary bet for +15% profit if win and 100% loss if lose.

I did the same thing but only lost $4k. I feel like a retard but seeing the shit show of the past few days unfold has more than made up for it.

Not strictly. Starting a business is a risk but with good planning and execution is isn't a gamble.

Just be thankful you finally learned about
risk Vs reward.

Sadly for you, it was lot later than any normal person, but not everyone can be at or above average IQ.
