    You only know it's a mistake in hindsight, taking profit is not a mistake. We can all say we 'wish' we bought or held some stock, some people may hold and it losses so I don't see this as a mistake

    Opportunity cost is something else eh? lol I have to applaud your decision though because TSLA is a pretty unusual case and you'd probably been right the other 9/10 times. Thanks for sharing!

      It's real tempting to keep checking or sell if things hit the fan or if they go up big. Hopefully things work out for your stock and you win big!

    I’ve driven a Tesla before. Very smooth and it’s the best electric car.

    • @MillennialFinance101
      @MillennialFinance101  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I drove the model 3 (my coworker had one of those too and I was slightly impressed with it also haha). The self driving was nerve wrecking but seems like a big winner for long distance driving (but tesla isn't really made for long distance driving). But the slighly longer charge time doesn't seem to bother people, which is good for Tesla

    I did the same thing. Invested in a company but didn’t know anything about it. It tanked. I just assumed stocks go up. Lost about 80% before I sold! Now it sits at down 90%

    Great confession. Don’t invest in something you don’t understand. Or don’t believe in.
    You can have a second chance now..... to buy now Tesla stock and start over and hold them for 5 years.

      I STRONGLY suggest buying and holding for 1 year MINIMUM. Do not dare even look at the price until 1 year has went by. Long term, this stock could see growth upwards to $7,000 valuations and even $22,000 by 2024.
