My inheritance money ran out, I'm BROKE! [a-Xj9KZVSLI]

A few years ago, my dad passed away and I

inherited quite a lot of money in the form

of a life insurance payout. And you might

be wondering, what has happened to that

money? What have I done with it? How have

I spent it? What have I wasted it on?

Unfortunately, I didn't really get to

spend any of it. Through no fault of my

own, I ended up losing nearly all of it on

the stock market and through bad

investments. So I thought it it would be a

good idea to use the money responsibly and

start investing, because everyone always

says, you know, you should start investing

because it's the wise thing to do. And I

wanted to make more money by using the

money instead of just wasting it on tech

and cameras and games and stuff like that.

And it's kind of annoying. I wish I never

bothered getting into stocks and

investing, because if I just spent the

money, even if I wasted all of it, at

least I could have bought some nice things

like a new phone, a new computer, some

nice new clothing. So I could have spent

all of the money and it would have been a

waste, but at least I I would have some

nice stuff to show for it. What do I have

to show after 2 years of trying to become

an investing guru and to try and make

money off the stock market? Well, I've

lost about £16,000, which is nearly

$20,000, and I've had many sleepless

nights, and I've just felt pretty terrible

after losing such a big amount of money.

So if you remember last year around

September, I made a video about investing.

It was my last— it was the last time I

made a video update on my stock

investments, and that was around September

last year. And at that point I was down

about £9,000 in my main portfolio. And you

might be wondering, after 8 months,

surely you've regained, recouped some of

that money. Actually, no, I've lost even

more since then. I think I'm now down over

£12,000 in my main portfolio. And in

addition to that, I'm also down £1,000 in

my second portfolio. And in addition to

that, I'm also down another £2,500 because

last year I was trying to do day trading

and I had a day trading trading accounts

that had about £2,500 in. The account

balance of my day trading account is now

£1.82, and I've kind of given up on

the idea of day trading. I just had loads

of really bad day trades that I tried to

make, and yeah, I just didn't have very

good luck with day trading. So you might

be wondering, what the hell kind of

investments did I have last year back in

September to be down another £3,000?

Well, back then I mostly had tech stocks

still. I had Corsair Gaming, I had PayPal,

I had Amazon, and then a bunch of other

NASDAQ stocks and tech stocks. And if

you've been following the markets at all

recently in the past few months, you'll

know that the stock market, the stock

market has not been doing very well

because of inflation. And then the war

that's happening in Europe hasn't really

helped things either. And you might be

thinking, don't worry, if you're just

patient and you hold and you wait, then

your stocks will eventually go back up.

Well, I kind of sold everything a couple

of months ago, and I'm really glad I did

because things have just gotten way worse

after I sold everything. I also had quite

a lot of money in some other stocks like

Palantir, Tattooed Chef, which are

considered to be growth stocks. And when

inflation is as high as it is now, those

kind of stocks don't really do very well

and they've plummeted like 60+%. And after

I sold them, they actually dropped another

20 or 25%. So I was kind of lucky in the

way that I sold everything. So I've lost

quite a lot of money, and let's face it,

I'm probably not going to get that money

back. I'm not going to jump back into the

same stocks I had before. And in order to

make back the amount of money I lost, I'm

not exactly sure how the maths works, but

I think it works like this. So if a stock

drops by 50%, in order for me to break

even and get back to where I was, the

stock has to go up 100%. And because I

started investing basically at the very

top, at the peak of the markets, the

market's going to have to go to all-time

new highs for me to be able to get my

money back. So I think it's wise to just

cut my losses and just accept that I made

some really bad choices. I invested at the

completely wrong time and I'm not going to

get that money back. So what am I going to

do moving forwards? I'm not going to give

up on investing. I feel like I've learned

a lot over the last 2 years. What I've

done is I've completely sold all of my

tech stocks. I don't own any stocks that

are in the Nasdaq. I don't have any kind

of growth stocks or meme stocks or stuff

like crypto or that kind of dumb stuff.

As of right now, I think I have around

£30,000, and I've put all of

that money into 3 main sectors. The

sectors that I've chosen to focus on are

number 1, the tobacco industry, number 2,

energy and oil stocks, number 3, Lockheed

Martin, who develops missiles and weapons.

According to my economical research, I

have determined that based off of my

studies, I believe that inflation is going

to get much worse and it's going to last

for much longer than we expect. So So I've

decided to focus into companies and stocks

that provide value now and dividends as

well. And I decided to choose the tobacco

industry because I believe that even if

things get more and more expensive and

people start running out of money to buy

luxury items such as chocolate and crisps,

pot noodle, and, you know, good stuff like

that, I believe that people who are

addicted to nicotine, well, even if they

have to cut back on other things, they're

still going to buy their smokes. I think

smokers are going to prioritize buying

their cigarettes way above buying basic

stuff like milk or bacon. So when the

recession hits and everyone's poor and

broke, well, smokers still gotta smoke.

And for sector number 2 that I'm focusing

on, energy and oil companies. I believe

that energy stocks and oil stocks are

going to carry on going up because of the

war that is happening in Europe. I think

that energy is going to become more and

more expensive because there's less and

less supply from Russia. According to what

I've read, there's going to be rolling

blackouts across Europe. People are going

to have to choose between eating or

heating. So by this logic, energy

companies are going to make so much money

because they'll be able to charge a

premium on the electricity, and people are

going to have no choice but to buy it.

What are they going to do, just live in

the dark? Unfortunately, I just don't

really believe that this conflict, this

war that's happening in Europe, is going

to be resolved anytime soon. It's going to

be a really long, dragged-out thing, and

these sanctions that we have put in place

and the sanctions that have been placed on

us by Russia, it's just going to hurt us

more than it's going to hurt them. And

this leads me on to why I've chosen

Lockheed Martin as my 3rd sector to focus

on, because they are going to make the

missiles that are going to be needed for

this WAR. And if you know anything about

the missile industry, then you'll know

that the hypersonic missile technology is

something that's kind of like the main

focus right now. Hypersonic missile

technology is just going to make

everything obsolete. It's going to be a

complete game changer. Aircraft carriers,

battleships, massive planes— basically

everything and anything is just going to

be destroyed by hypersonic missiles. And

Lockheed Martin is probably going to be at

the forefront for developing this

technology for, for us as Westerners. So

basically what this means is I have a

portfolio that is fully positioned to take

100% full advantage and benefit and profit

from the conflict or the war and

rising inflation and even a recession and

also lung cancer. And then as part of my

smaller positions, I also have some gold

mining stocks and some precious metal

stocks in the form of Rio Tinto. And I

have some pharmaceutical companies as well

because everyone knows that when the value

of fiat currencies go down and inflation

runs rampant, then commodities like gold

and precious metals, they are seen as an

inflation hedge. So I think it's a good

idea to have some of those as well. So

It's basically a win-win because if I'm

right, then I'll become rich and I won't

have just wasted my father's inheritance.

But then if I'm wrong, that would mean

that the war has been resolved, people

quit smoking and don't get lung cancer

anymore, energy prices will have come down

and gas prices won't be $10 a gallon or

something, and inflation has come down and

we won't be having a recession. So you can

all thank me.
