    You wrote and I quote : "There are literally millions of customers who are unemployed trading on margin with small accounts."

    Care to give us your sources for these "statistics" ?

    Oh I get it now, you are "working" for that Des...o troll. I put him on Ignore but obviously he is still active. You almost fooled me for a second.

    Never mind.

    Its what’s fueled the Reddit/wsb revolution.

    I’m not working for anyone other than my wife, kids and my future financial goals.

    According to the "Modern Trader" report, there are 9.8 million traders online.

    The idea that "millions of them" are unemployed is, at best, questionable.

    Good for you, I respect that.
    Happy trading then.

    Right, it's a well-known fact that highly successful traders and high-net worth individuals just love to hang out in trading forums and troll full time, instead of starting their own fund and earning Billions.

    Elon is CEO of how many companies and how he does he spend his down time? Tweet, tweet.

    Also running a fund is not all its cracked up to be, even if you get to ride OPM coattails and stick them with big fees.
