So I've been waiting quite some time to time the market and said fuck it one week ago. Put in 6k euros in etf. Then shit like this happens lmao. European stock is affected less than NA ones but still.

Lost almost my week's income on this stuff. But now's the time to pump it. Gonna put 2k euros in it every few days until it's at 30k euros original value.

We're all such emotional creatures, so... Gimme those stocks 😎 gimme gimme gimme

Now is not the time to buy...... Dont try and catch a falling knife. Let it hit the floor before you decide to pick it up. Tariffs will take weeks until they really start curbing consumer spending, we have a long ways to go.

It's not going to just stay on the floor nicely like a good little doggy. Once it reaches it, it will shoot up sharply.

I'm just going to take the average of the crash. Put in 2000 euros every few days across 2 months and then ride it out.

It's still the same property and I'm going to keep it for 20 years. It's money I don't need.

You are treating this as if it were a dip, when in reality this is more than likely the beginning of a recession. The last time we had a real recession it took the market nearly 2 years to hit the ground bottom.

You are going to have plenty of time to buy low, nothing is going to be shooting up quickly unless tariffs return back to normal.
