What I've noticed about myself is that I tend to look at a risk like the Sprint buy as a gamble and challenge...........as to why it entices me to buy a stock like that I'm not sure as I DO NOT like to gamble in the traditional casino, card game, or sports fashion at all. I will wager on a game when my performance and skill is involved but don't really get a rush from it.
I don't consider myself lucky either which adds to "why the heck did I do that" factor. On a roulette wheel I've bet red 7 times in a row, switched to black 6 times and lost every time.
Help..............
