I've never been known for my decision making skills. Let's start there.
So... I made a gamble. A stupid gamble.
Down $20. I had the money, sure, but telling Mom how I spent it? That's going to hurt. Not to mention... Ugh.
See, I thought 'oh! that zomg box looks keen'! I'll buy one! So I got one and I got a fluff box. I got a wolf pup out of the fluff box. I thought 'not bad. I bet I can do better!'
So...
Then.
In the End.
I think I bought 19 boxes.
I got a pair of panda slippers. I sold them for 190,000!
I smiled to myself.
I can do better! I can get the best item EVAR if I just do it ONE MORE TIME!
Now?
Now I'm $20 poorer. Have a few utterly worthless items: a golden chest, two magic blue boxes, and a chickie and bunny shirt.
Can't sell them for anything.
Ugh.
Why did I do that?
Why didn't I listen to that tiny voice that said 'you have 190000! Stop here! Go away!
It's such a dumb thing to be upset over, but...
I'm so stupid.
How could I spend that on ...
And then just...?
And now I've got nothing.
*sob*
I've got to learn a lesson from this, but I'd rather have my money back...
Lesson learned:
Stop while you're ahead.
Or better yet, don't start at all.
*weep*

Sincerely and crush-ed-ly yours,
L-A
