He had an interesting statement on his PowerPoint presentation......It's harder to recover a loss than it is to make a loss

He's right. His video is all about money management and saving the bank, but his statistics show why so many people fall into the suicide trap of trying to recover losses with gambles

Hi there. Thanks for the link, I enjoyed the video - all the more because of the way the sub-title software made a real mess of understanding his accent! :D
