A few years ago a friend saw that I was making money as an individual being succesful (at that time) trading stocks and gave me $60,000 to invest at my discretion. I gave her a personal guarantee. Well, over the next several months I manages to lose not only ALL of her money but $120,00 of my money (documented). I did not represent myself as a "broker", just as someone who had success trading from my home. I fully acknowledge that I owe her the balanced of $55,000 not paid back but she is threatening to put me in jail, etc. I would like to know if I have done anything ILLEGAL/CRIMINAL by taking her money which she gave me and putting it into my stock trading account. I NEVER TOOK A PENNY FOR PERSONAL USE. Thanking you all ahead of time for your legal response. I just feel horrific about what has transpired.
