I bought a few Adani group stocks during a strong period and saw my portfolio rise faster than anything I had experienced before. That success changed my personality. I started borrowing against investments and taking concentrated positions because I believed I could identify momentum before everyone else.
When volatility increased, I moved from delivery shares into options and futures. My total loss eventually reached ₹46 lakh. My wife had warned me repeatedly, but I called her negative and said she did not understand markets. After the loss, the first apology I made was not for losing money. It was for insulting the person who had been trying to protect our family.
