On-screen text

MY BIGGEST INVESTMENT EVER I PUT ALL MY MONEY INTO THE STOCK MARKET WHEN IT CRASHED I THOUGHT THIS WAS AN OVERREACTION. THE MARKET'S GOING TO RECOVER. OF COURSE IT'S GONNA RECOVER. I DOUBLED MY MONEY IN 12 MONTHS. WHEN THE MARKET CRASHED TRUMP ANNOUNCED TARIFFS, AND IT WENT DOWN LIKE 25% "OH THAT'S OBVIOUSLY AN OVERREACTION." SO I PUT A TON OF MONEY INTO THE MARKET THEN. WHEN NETFLIX WAS DOWN $200 A SHARE, I'M LIKE, "THIS STOCK HAS CRASHED THIS IS A MASSIVE COMPANY, IT'S GONNA REBOUND." SO I PUT SOME MONEY IN THAT. PEOPLE GENERALLY OVERREACT.

Transcript

My biggest investment ever, I put all my money into the stock market when it crashed and COVID. I thought this was an overreaction. The market's going to recover. No, of course it's going to recover. I doubled my money in 12 months. When the market crashed because Trump announced tariffs, and it went down like 25%. I said, "Oh, that's obviously an overreaction." So I put a ton of money into the market then. When Netflix was down $200 a share. I'm like, "This stock has crashed way too much. It's a massive company, it's going to rebound." So I put some money in that. People generally overreact.
