I have made a few bad investments. Let's say the loss is around $15K. ?
I have a job that pays ok, yet sometime I dwell on my losses in bad investments. Some say to forget about it and move on. What should I do?

Everybody's investments are in the tank right now, except for the short sellers that almost destroyed America. Crashes happen, you couldn't have known.

you can write off the loss on any sale you make. You have to sell the bad investment before you write it off. File long form 1040 and claim a loss on schedule c or d. I forget which one.

Move on, but remember what you did so you don't make the same mistake twice.

As many have said learn from your "mistakes" or market "fickleness" - I call it legalized gambling. Can't win all the time and the odds are with the house.

As for taxes, losses can be used to offset gains and you can deduct a net loss on your taxes up to $3000 per year. Any unused losses can be carried forward to future years to offset future gains.

Good luck - it has been a tough year.

I've lost twice that in the last 4 months and, like you, feel terrible about it.

But my broker said, "It's not gone (the $$). You just don't have it right NOW".

Good luck with your future.

Just be happy that you don't have much to lose.
