Not playing the stock market is the real win

Personally, I remember jumping into crypto years ago (during the "Park Sang-gi Rebellion" era) when it was incredibly popular, only to suffer losses amounting to tens of millions of won.
Based on that experience, I became cautious about stocks and crypto, and it became the catalyst for my belief that the stock and crypto markets cannot be trusted.
It's almost like a coin toss game—heads or tails... it's highly speculative.
Because of that, I found it difficult to actively participate in the market, as it felt unreliable and anxiety-inducing, leading me to avoid investing.
I occasionally try entering with around a million won just for fun, but even that isn't easy because it's so easy to lose.
Watching the recent difficult state of the domestic stock market, I feel that my decision to stay out—due to that gambling-like sensation from my past crypto losses—might actually be a lesson learned from those painful past losses.
After all, you can't just throw tens or hundreds of millions of won of your hard-earned money into a heads-or-tails game, can you?
