This guy just exposed the American Healthcare System.
After 10 years as a Neurosurgeon...
He quit & fled to the mountains.
Why?
Because he discovered THIS scary truth about US healthcare:
(With his real videos)

It’s funny how you have traders on here saying that Psychology comes first or that it’s 70% of what makes a winning trader- yet you have someone like Jack Schwager who as interviewed and surrounded himself with the worlds most elite traders specifically stating that Edge comes first and that a true edge builds good psychology and eliminates the many of the psychological ailments that plagues traders.
This is something I’ve been adamant about for years. I genuinely believe people who say psychology comes first do not actually trade profitably.
Psychology is a crutch. It’s like self help. It’s a never ending loop of distraction that masks the real issues so you can stay in their community longer. “It’s not the edge, it’s you. You just need to work on yourself more”
A true edge is repeatable. It’s systematic. Over time instinct is built. This discretion is what separate masters from average traders. Time to wake up people.
Looking forward to seeing all the tweets get deleted that show them saying “psychology comes first” and for all those psychology courses start to crumble.
Jack’s experience is irrefutable. You need a true edge to be profitable. That comes first- good psychology is a byproduct of a winning edge.
Remember:
1. Sit on your hands when you don't believe the opportunity is high probability
2. Step up when you believe it is. No fear. No hesitation. Follow your process. Expect nothing
3. Trade the market, not your P&L, not your emotion
4. Always be seeking improvement
Trading Reality Check:
Chasing the tops and bottoms in trading often leads to losses and false confidence. For most, it's a trap of 'lucky' successes, not skill.
When you start to feel useful to people, most especially your family, then you can never feel depressed.
Depression can be cured. Just take things easy and find a purpose.
Get busy, meet new people, make new friends, talk to people, learn a skill, play football, hit the gym, just never stay idle and sink in those thoughts.
Listen man, we create our life and it all starts from our mind. If you think you can do it, you can, just look for a way out and do it.
Not easy, but not impossible. I will bet on you 78 billion times over, i believe in you, you’re created in God’s image, so don’t you dare fail him.

My ego was big.
I was a nerd in school.
And I was lonely.
So because I was working on shit at home (I was clueless really)
I thought I was better than people.
Turns out.
I wasn't.
Learned that no matter what.
You should never start disrespecting people.
Just because you have different goals.
Or ambitions.
Doesn't give you the right to be a bad human being.
I found a guy who goes around the US asking 70+ year-olds their:
• Biggest Regrets
• Biggest Lessons
• Advice to their younger self
Oddly enough, most of their answers are the same…
Here are my 10 favourite:
Your 20’s is pure questing. Endless quests.
Which one is the main quest & which one is the side quest? You have no fucking clue. You’re just doing shit
Say yes to everything, get out of your house, start an astonishing amount of ventures quickly & imperfectly
Endless chaos
