  1. Why you struggle if you have 99.99% chances you won't even make a living by trading?

    True, only one out of thousands gets to be a famous, multimillionaire doctor, CEO, Hollywood actor, sportsman or something.

    But most of the rest are at least making a modest living.

    Not in trading.

    Ditto, what a useless thread.

    Why do anything in life that requires risk. Daytrading is alot easier than say becoming a hollywood celeb.

    Hmmm. Looks like you struck a bad cord... Most ETers don't like being told the truth - that they will most definitely fail. Hehehe.
     
  7. Because everyone postulates they are momentous. :p
     
  8. Hey, I like this comment. So true.

    Hey OP, why not just kill yourself now, all you will do is get older, weaker, more scared, less aware, have to pee in the middle of the night many times and may lose all your teeth. Might as well take a 357 to the dome right now.

    What say you OP Garcia?

     
  9. Please let me know where you got your stats that 1/100 ever make a living trading?
