Me: "Wow dude, I'm sorry to hear that. How down are you?"

CA: "Like two hundred grand!!"

Me: "Oh God. Uhh....I'm sorry. Wow. I mean...that's awful."

CA: "Well, at least it's just the simulation. If this was real I'd have jumped out of the hotel window."

Me: "I'm sorry...what?"

CA: "It's a trading sim I have. It's not real money. I simulate stuff before I trade it for real."

Me: "So....you lost $200K of pretend money? Like in The Sims?"

CA: "Yeah. It sucks. I'm so freaking out."

It's days like these I realize I REALLY need to get off my tail and get out of the regionals.
