There's a human cost, but your life isn't over because your business fails.

I used to wonder how investors could throw themselves out of 10th floor windows after finding their shares had become worthless, whereas other folks who never owned any stock feel great.

The delusion is attaching your sense of self-worth to your balance sheet.

Also for future reference, your post is a rude ad-hominem attack defending a straw-man argument. If you have something to contribute, please don't mask it with hostility.
