Is it careless to have the mindset that the money I have invested in the market as a student (around 3.5k) isn't much in the grand scheme of things? Considering I'm in my very early 20s and going into a field that pays pretty well, I seem to default to thinking this current wave of red is easily stomached by thinking this, but I worry I'm being a little careless with the funds I've put in already by thinking this way. Anyone's input is appreciated, even those that may have been in my position way back when.

In essence, I adhered to the "only invest what you're willing to lose" and I'm okay with losing the money I could potentially continue to lose to learn some pretty valuable lessons now instead of later, which could be potentially much more costly.
