He remembers his moment of wealth fondly. ``You have a different attitude about life,'' Nguyen says. ``You never feel like you're at the mercy of someone for the next paycheck. You feel in control, and it's a nice feeling. Life is good.''

One year later, he's lost most of what he gained, now works at a corporate job, and ignores the stock market.

``Basically, I gave up,'' he says. ``I work for a living and I don't look at the market any more.''



There seems to have been and still is a perception that eashy money in the stock market gives one the opportunity to retire and live a wealthy lifestyle. Having skills and good work ethic makes one's life financially more secure and should make it more rewarding. Sports such as golf or any leasure enjoyable activity have their place. Too much of anything is not good for one's well being. We all need goals.
