I didn't really understand from the article how this could occur, seems really weird and tragic if the person was in an otherwise happy life.

I read that article. It had to do with how the particular stock he was working with was traded and showed him a balance of $730k in the negative. He didn't know that it was temporary thing. Here's the story:

Apparent suicide by 20-year-old Robinhood trader who saw a negative $730,000 balance prompts app to make changes

The family of a 20-year-old student says he died by suicide after confusion over an apparent negative balance of $730,000 on his Robinhood account. Now they are demanding answers from the millennial-focused trading app.

The stock market has been causing suicides since its inception. I'm honestly not surprised.

Yes but I still don't understand why it temporarily displays this?
