A United States Postal Service worker’s attempt to make quick money through day trading has left him $180,000 in the hole, facing massive debt, potential job loss, and personal turmoil, prompting urgent advice from The Ramsey Show hosts.
In the July episode, Caller Alex explained that after losing package volume at his USPS job, he turned to day trading, initially making $120,000 but borrowing $60,000 to fund trades.
“I ended up losing the money and I took out another loan to try and make it back and lost it, too,” he said.
Alex now faces $6,200 in monthly expenses with only $4,000 in income and fears he could lose his job due to not being able to afford a delivery vehicle required by his contract.
