Don't remind me again today

Last year I had a student who started with 1800U and reached a maximum of 52,000U. What happened in the end? I took the initiative to delete him.



It's not because he lost money. It's because he got carried away.

When he first came to me, this guy hadn't even managed to gather enough money to pay off his credit card. My advice was very simple: only use 10% of your position to open a trade each time. He didn't quite understand at the time and thought it would be slow to make money like this. I told him, you shouldn't be thinking about getting rich quickly right now; first learn to survive.

In the first three days, the account increased by 36%. He started to review daily and strictly followed the strategy. After more than twenty days, it steadily rose to 8000U. The rhythm was originally quite good.

But on the 28th day, he suddenly asked me: "Do you think my current level is enough to trade with others?"

Hearing this, I felt disheartened—this person's mindset has already inflated.

On the 34th day, he went all in on a certain altcoin without saying hello, incurring a single loss of 43%. He later told me: "I wanted to test my judgment."

This is typical gambler's thinking. On the 36th day, I directly removed him. It wasn't that I was afraid he would continue to lose, but rather that I was afraid he would take luck as skill and discipline as a constraint.

There are plenty of people in this market who have made fifty thousand, but how many can actually keep that money? You won't find a few within ten miles. What can turn your situation around is discipline, while what can lead you to zero is the gamble after inflation.

Remember: The market never lacks people who can make money; what it lacks are people who can keep the money.

Indeed, this is the self-cultivation of a gambler... Earning a little money leads to inflation, and in the end, going all in on alts, serves them right.

This guy is just a typical example of being brainwashed by making money, really inflated.

This guy inflated in just 28 days, I really didn't expect it... Earning a little money made him feel enlightened, and in the end, the outcome of going all in on altcoins was deserved.

It's easy to make money but hard to keep it. This guy is a typical example of quick in and out... He made nearly three times in a month and is still thinking about bringing others along. This mindset really needs to be restrained.

Really, earning fifty thousand in a month and then starting to teach others? This mindset is truly hopeless; discipline is indeed more valuable than talent.

Indeed, getting carried away as soon as you make money is a terminal illness, this guy deserves to be deleted.
