100% agree and super dangerous for younger people. I didn't get into options until my late 40s (thank God). If I had this at my fingertips in my twenties I would've lost a ton of money. I'm a gambling addict naturally, but as I've aged I've learned bankroll management and risk management. But I still fall into that trance where it's just numbers on a screen.
