Some valuable stock market lessons available at $300 a piece right now.

Probably not going to end well, but they'll learn something from it.

Unfortunately, I disagree. I think there will be stories written for the next bit about the handful that make bank, very few stories written about the people who lose their shirts and end up with their financial life in ruins.

When nonsense like this happens again, no one will remember the downside.

Everyone who loses their shirts will learn a lesson they'll never forget. Pain is the best teacher.

The smart people learn from other people's pain.
