Timi, I agree with acees. Valuable lesson. Many many many years ago my first investment made 50% in six months. Wow. My next one lost 70% over two years. Two very valuable lessons. I've also leaned that i make more money on boring, steady as she goes, income equities than on the 'you beaut, I'll make a lot of quick money here' equities. I'm in (or out, in this case) of equities like CCE for their long term potential. How often have I been wrong on that, worth a try with a small amount of money, while the boring shares bring in dividends and increase in value year after year.
Good luck. And enjoy the ride.
