LIFE OUTSIDE: SAVING EVERY PUNCTUAL PENNY OF INSTANT NOODLES—AND THEN, OVER ONE NIGHT’S ORDER, THE MONEY VANISHES
All year long, they pinched every cent, braving the rain to push the bicycle, eating plain meals and working overtime until their skin peeled—only to scrape together a little “scraps” of capital. Yet in just one night of a “sudden fit of madness,” with leverage orders, more than 22,000 USD (nearly 600 million VND) earned through tears of labor was burned down into ashes.
Watching the green PnL calendar light up for a dozen days, gathering each last odd dollar bill, only for one day—on the 11th, turning a glaring red with 75%—to bring tears back as they mixed with a hastily overturned bowl of instant noodles.
In real life, you scrape together every bitter 100k drop of sweat; on the trading floor, just one casual click of the hand without discipline— and you’re wiped out, completely wiped out.
Working an entire year is nothing compared to one reckless, impulsive night!
