Mr. Sharma, a 42-year-old professional, started investing on his own, focusing only on short-term gains, ignoring long-term financial planning for retirement and his children’s education.
He opened a trading account, followed market news, and felt like he had everything under control. He bought random stocks based on tips from colleagues. He tried his hand at futures and options because it looked exciting.
He refused to sell underperforming shares because his ego told him, “They will bounce back.”
At first, he saw small profits, which boosted his confidence. But slowly, things changed:
– His F&O trades wiped out months of savings in just weeks.
– His stock portfolio had companies that were not growing, but he kept holding.
– He lost out on opportunities in mutual funds, PMS, and international funds because he was busy chasing the next hot tip.
– The stress of constantly checking prices gave him sleepless nights and family pressure.
-He also missed out on diversifying his investments, which could have reduced risks and improved overall returns.
– Chasing short-term gains repeatedly led him to overlook stable investment opportunities..
After five years, Mr. Sharma realized he had invested a lot of time, energy, and money—but his portfolio had hardly grown. In fact, after accounting for mistakes and losses, he was behind where he should have been.
He realized that investing without a structured approach and ignoring professional advice was costing him far more than just money—it affected his mental well-being and family life.

Mr. Sharma’s story is not unique. Most self-managed investors face the same problems:
- The Ego Trap – Believing they know everything and refusing to take professional help.
- The F&O Illusion – Wasting energy in speculative trades that usually end in losses.
- Lack of Dynamic Portfolio Management – Holding on to poor investments and missing new opportunities.
- No Goal Alignment – Investing randomly without retirement or wealth goals and chasing short-term gains led him to overlook stable investment opportunities.
- Stress and Fatigue – Constant worry instead of enjoying financial peace.
