What is your single biggest fear in life?

Quote from vhehn:

to die like both my father and father in law did. they both smoked and died from lung cancer. it was a slow, horrible, painful way to go. i dont cut people much slack when i see them smoking around me.
anybody who is reading this and smokes think about it.

Same happened to my mom; it was oweful.
I still have terrible nightmares about it that I cannot explain and make go away.
 
Quote from Ripley:

Hey, am I reading this correct?

You already lost your wife due to a car accident? or your fear would be losing your wife?

If you lost your wife.. I am really sorry, and I hope you get over her eventually. If I ever lose my wife, I really don't know how I would handle it.

Grieving is healthy. The way I have dealt with loss is to carry that person in my heart, knowing that wherever that person went, I shall eventually get there, too.
 
1. Presently, what is your single biggest fear in life? It need not be limited to the trading arena.

Making mistakes in trading i.e. lossing money.

2. How, and to what extent, do you think this fear has either helped or hindered you?

Either. It perevents me from pulling the trigger but also stops me from lossing more money.

3. If you have found that, on balance, your fear has hindered you, what steps do you think you would need to take in order to overcome that fear?

Try to forget the mistakes that I have made and trust my own system.

4. If you are not presently taking these steps, what prevents you from doing so? (If, indeed, you have found that your fear serves as a hindrance.)

The failures always pop up in my mind.
 
I simply cannot answer in this thread...I tried. Maybe its because I just woke up and am having my coffee still..Hey this is scary, when I can't post something relevent to a thread....
 
I have a strong fear of losing my vision and not being able to trade ever again. I also fear that I will die in same way that my father did from a sudden heart attack at a early age.
