Kind of curious, but most likely he failed because the very last post in this thread shows he turned to gambling and ignored wagering methods, including risk management and strategy development, discard the sd thinking gambling was a better alternative than programming a computer to do his work. No, this thread is a clear failure from the last post quoted by the OP, because he stopped modelling, and probably blew out.
Interesting to note that in the Summer of '07 he stated that he was invested in real estate and various other instruments that were devastated by the "Great Recession". Maybe he was one of those "flippers" who got stuck "holding the bag" when it all came crashing down, and couldn't bear the loss. Whatever his fate, I wish him well.
