Gambling addicts are everywhere in the markets.
Especially amongst young men. They want to provide...to make money. To impress the girl. To get the car.
Their buddy tells them to "try stocks", and they see the huge PnL screenshots in youtube videos and on X.
...so they dive in, follow the wrong people, and get roped into 0DTE options, meme coins, penny stocks, heavy leverage, no risk management.
They drink the kool aid.
The quick money.
That's why 95% of traders fail.
Here's the remedy.
- size bigger into *only* highest conviction ideas
- only take small losses
- expand your timeframes
- understand this is a compounding game, NOT a quick money game.
Let the snowball roll.
