I have owned several restuarants and editing companies over the years. The only loss I had was a restaurant I didn't do my normal research on. My loss was only 100,000 (USD) which isn't too bad compared to all the other good deals I have done before.

I brought a bike in the hope of reviving its rusted bodywork for a profit but once I figgured out some guy has simply stuck a 'giant' sticker on it I did my shirt. Lost 8 bucks I paid the tip guy for it :D (in australia tip is another word for trash drump)

You can make a killing on the stock/currency markets for sure but you have to play your cards right and have the right knowlage at the right time or whoops! 85% flushed. Unless you have a 'sure bet' as gordon geko would say or happy to spend some serious time researching and maintaining its probaly not worth your time speculating rather than investing in blue chip or some such for the longer term and then any value rises become a bonus.

Azer I stand in awe! Here I was thinking you were a small-timer, you have now officialy lost 6.5 times what im worth total :P Long as ramsy isent knocking on your door your going OK I figgure, good luck through
