English term

beaten mentally

English to Portuguese Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general)
A baseball player can lose a baseball game; it is just a game. A football player can be on a team that has a losing season; some teams win, some teams lose. That is the nature of sports. But if you lose money in investing, you get a double whammy. Not only are you less wealthy from an activity that should increase your wealth, you are exposing the fact that you were beaten mentally
