Suddenly, you're 3 years in and have nothing to show for it. Year 4 comes around, and you make back 3 years of losses in six months and never look back. Gradually, then all at once. You’re delusional if you think an education in the market is free or quick. Or that you'll beat the market in year one? or two? Doctors are in school for 10 YEARS. Regular college degrees are 4 years and you don't learn shit. Even an apprenticeship as an plumber takes years. Good things take time. Markets are no different. Think of it like any other education process you've ever been through...except this one can return 10,000x on your initial investment if you ruthlessly learn, adapt, and improve. Pay the piper. Pay father time. Part of the game.
