This is why "forex gurus" sell you a course instead of encouraging you to study institutional finance and understand how interbank liquidity actually works.
If the students of Habby Forex and Jeffrey Benson truly understood capital dynamics, they would never believe the ridiculous claim that Jeffrey withdrew $9 million from an offshore retail broker like Assex Markets or Kwakol. The only way such a massive withdrawal could legitimately happen is if these brokers possessed active clearing contracts and institutional settlement lines with Tier-1 liquidity providers like JPMorgan Chase, which they simply do not have.
The primary purpose of selling courses is to control the narrative and keep students in the dark. The irony is that, strictly speaking, these influencers are not even real forex traders, and their audience fails to realize this due to a complete misunderstanding of market microstructure and broker execution models.
A retail broker like the ones Habby Forex promotes is no different from a Bet9ja shop. When you walk into Bet9ja and place a bet that Real Madrid will beat Barcelona, you are simply entering into a private wager with the betting house.
Real Madrid, Barcelona, and La Liga have no idea your bet exists, and neither the players nor the league earn anything whether you win or lose. Your win is an outright loss for the betting house, and your loss is their direct profit. The betting house remains profitable because they know that over 90% of gamblers will eventually lose all their money, and even the rare few who win substantial sums usually gamble it all back.
This is precisely how the brokers used by Habby Forex and Jeffrey Benson operate. When you open their trading app, you see live charts of forex price movements, much like watching live scores on a sports betting app. But when you place an order, that trade is logged solely on the broker's private server. The broker makes zero attempt to route or execute your order in the real interbank market. Routing orders to real global liquidity providers requires massive upfront capital, bridge fees, and transaction costs. Because statistics show that roughly 90% of retail traders wipe out their account balance within 90 days, the broker has no financial incentive to incur costs by sending your order to the real market. They simply wait for you to blow your account so they can pocket 100% of your deposit.
This is also why these brokers offer absurd leverage like 1:2000, as it ensures you lose your money as quickly as possible. In the real financial world, leverage consists of strictly collateralized credit lines. In the United States, retail leverage is legally capped at 1:50; in the UK and EU, it is capped at 1:30; and in many emerging markets, it is even lower to prevent systemic risk due to lack of liquidity.
Ultimately, these brokers partner with forex influencers like Habby and Jeffrey Benson to funnel inexperienced traders onto their platforms. They pay these influencers massive commissions for every referral, and under certain affiliate deals, they even pay them a percentage of their followers' trading losses, because client losses are where the broker makes the most money.
I finally understand what Machiavelli meant when he said, "Never play fair in a game where others cheat." It doesn't mean become evil. It means stop being naive. Stop bringing honesty to people who study manipulation, stop giving access to people who weaponize closeness, and stop expecting clean hands from people who already showed you they'll throw dirt. Sometimes wisdom is not revenge. Sometimes wisdom is learning the rules of the room before the room uses your goodness against you.
My theory is simple: if she INSISTS on grand gestures from you ALONE before y’all locked in, she’s a thief till proven otherwise.
She’s never gifted, sent food, money etc but insists you gotta do all these then ask her out in grand style to show “love” & “seriousness” hmm run o.
@stillgoji Lmaoooo na why if my guy wan dey do the most I dey always call am to caution. Because I no dey like hear after all I did for her yarns, nobody put gun for your head.
@jiggyjiggaa1 Men needs to wake up to this, do several small gestures you can afford to lose and if she doesn't naturally reciprocate, My brother BOUNCE.
@UcheKl Sadly, they are right. They didn't ask you. In as much we want to give free, have limit and only give what you can afford to lose. Takers don't have limit neither memory.
