Gambling mentality in 2026 is absolutely cooked.
People are so beaten down economically they think the only escape route is yoloing their last $500 into some degen play. Classic desperation trade.
Smaller account + bigger risk = fastest way to zero before the actual turnaround comes.
This is textbook late-cycle behavior when everyone's broke and impatient. They'd rather gamble than grind because grinding feels pointless when rent's due and nothing's working.
The irony? The ones who survive are the ones NOT doing this. But when you're underwater, logic goes out the window.
Seen this movie before. Never ends well.
