I agree with Sam. You will someday look back and say you learned an invaluable lesson. If part of that lesson is that you are temperamentally suited to invest in the market you will be able to say that the lesson made you many times over what you lost. As part of my lesson I vowed that I would quit losing money on stocks. Most of the time I follow what I learned, sometimes I don't and then I lose.

I was overly agressive with the little I did have trying to turn it in to a small fortune.

You and many others. The chapter heading for that particular lesson is "The Difference between Investment and Speculation".
