How Can I Screw This Up?

[mid range]

I thought of different ways to divert my attention over the years. Some study and a decent amount of time devoted to all. 1) Precious metals. 2) Trading preferred stocks. 3) Volatility ETFs. 4) Shorting distressed equities right before the advent of Reddit's Wall Street Bets. They turned out to be the kinda Good, kinda Bad and the very Ugly. Now on to dividend growth stocks with options. Guess it needs to be both the right thing and the right time and don't get greedy.
