Not only more common -- that is effectively what crashes are: demand for liquidity exceeds the supply, and the way markets are set up, this condition causes an even greater demand for liquidity, in a feedback loop.

Most of the time, you can get liquidity, but only at a price that really hurts. Sometimes you can't get it at all.

That makes sense, growing up my parents never contributed or had a 401k and I myself didn't start taking investing or contributing to anything until last year.
