Margin 2:1 on random punished stocks

I have my entire net worth in some other random stocks (mainly UPWK, PYPL, WDC, BULL), I lost around 20k on those. I got margin account and I instantly bought another 200k$ approx. Yes, I come from the Value sub. Yes, I’m regarded. And yes, I’m europoor.

Not planning to quit until I’m on 200k EUR (enough to put a 30% down payment in a nice house in this country).

Decided to buy these as they were mentioned a lot on the Value sub and now they have been punished another 20/30%.

Borrow rate locked up at 4% (I did a SPX Box Spread, don’t know why)

I’m diversifying
