My father has done well for himself as an investor/trader and taught me a lot while I was growing up, the most important rule of investing for him is YOU HAVEN'T LOST ANYTHING UNTIL YOU SELL!

Have you lost 5k?  Or has your short position now turned long and you're waiting for Legends Room to gain more popularity while getting passive income from renting your membership?  Sounds to me like the latter, not the former, but hey I'm a glass half full kinda guy...
