How does long term stocks works? if I'm looking to buy and hold it for long term (30 years), from time to time, if share prices drop below buy-in price, do I need to have extra cash to withstand it?
Does it work like day trading? Will it start to deduct money from my accounts if the shares fall below buy-in prices?
Or is it a 1-time buy-in thing? If I were to buy 50K worth of Amazon shares, I will lose 50K at most if the stock crashes?
How does one lose money, buying long term and holding it?

To add on to the other answers, there is a minimum commission paid to the brokerage when you buy and sell, so it is often not worth it to just buy/sell 1 share.
In addition, brokerages actually hold your foreign shares on your behalf so they will also charge a monthly custodian fee (couple of dollars).
