My name is John too and I'm also in my 20's (24)
You gravitate towards trading because you have no idea how to create any real value, and it seems easier than growing a business. Wouldn't it be nice to press some buttons according to your algorithm and churn out a 30% yearly return. No employees. No need to invent anything. No merchandise. No sales. No website building. No selling. Sounds like a dream.
It is a dream. Grow up and start a business before you blow your student debt payment money on robinhood options.
Here, we buy stuff and sell it for a profit, just like a trader, except we do something in between....we provide value. That's what an entrepreneur is. We take something that has low value and bring it to someplace with more value. We buy employees and pay them hourly to do a service or put together a product for a much higher rate, and after expenses we take home that profit. We spend time trying to optimize systems, optimize customer acquisition, lower costs, and turn our business into something scalable so we can make millions.
Many have done that on this forum. I'm on my way there. I have around 100 recurring customers paying me $150 a month and we should be around double that in 6 months.
You seem like the type to argue a lot and get an attitude (even though you're the one who needs help? lol)
I don't know what clown with a leased lambo selling forex courses (or whatever) convinced you that trading was a great way to make your millions (maybe if you're running a giant fund of other peoples money), but it's not. It's a good hedge against risk, a nice place to park sizable funds, etc. You aren't Eddie Morra...this isn't limitless...if you still want to make money on wall street, go get a time machine back to the 80's and go work for Jordan Belfort.
