IF YOU THINK PEOPLE WITH ADHD SMOKE WEED JUST TO “GET HIGH” - YOU HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED A BRAIN THAT NEVER SHUTS THE FUCK UP, HAS 147 DIFFERENT TABS OPEN, 3 SONGS PLAYING SIMULTANEOUSLY, CREATING 4 NEW BUSINESS IDEAS BEFORE NOON, AND STILL SOMEHOW FORGETTING WHY WE WALKED INTO THE KITCHEN.
SOME OF US AREN”T TRYING TO “GET HIGH” - WE’RE SIMPLY TRYING TO TURN THE VOLUME DOWN.
while trading, never ever copytrade anyone
develop ur own system/strategy and trust ur own method, if u copytrade someone u will end of fumbling the best trading bc u lack the conviction and u dont have the confidence of diamond holding winners,
same for losing trades u will hold on to them bc some random guru told u so
in the poker table ur alone, and other players often will mislead u, a profitable trader will never reveal his secrets in some paid group or on some course that he sells to you as some "savior way" to make millions
if someone has the golden egg chicken, he won't ever share that with anyone
step 1: stop messaging/texting people first
step 2: watch nobody actually care about you
step 3: accept ur not a teenager anymore
step 4: stop being a bitch, and man up, nobody is coming to save u, not ur family, not ur friends, is just you and God against the whole world bro.
We're looking for the best trader, with any size. Because I'm interested to find out -- if you trade $1,000 or less to $10,000 in the next month, I will personally send you an additional $10,000 of my own money.
Two tracks:
1. Arena PvP wins
2. Normal trading performance, by Legend ELO.
We developed a system over a few hundred simulations that we hope to identify the highest skill traders for perps specifically across most account sizes, that also takes into account that larger sizes are harder to trade, but still allow the opportunity for smaller accounts to win.
Cash prizes. IRL prizes. On-platform prizes. A bunch of cool stuff.
dm me on Legend if you start or are able to do this
Keep Your Poor Friends, Disregard The Rich
One thing I see all the time when people start making money is they quietly “upgrade” their friends. New income, new circle.
It feels natural, you move up, so your social life should move up too.
Critical mistake.
Most people do not have an internal definition of success.
They borrow it from whoever is around them.
When your circle shifts to people with more money, your idea of a good life shifts with it. Their house, their trips, their habits, their problems, all become your reference.
Yesterday your life felt solid. Today it suddenly feels small. Nothing changed except the people you are standing next to.
On the surface you will say you feel motivated. Underneath you are just running a new comparison that you can never win.
There will always be someone with more. If your definition of “doing well” comes from the top of whatever room you are in, you will live in permanent shortage, no matter how much you make.
I have moved through these layers. I have sat in rooms where everyone has serious money.
Something always felt off tho.
The richer the room, the lower the visible excitement.
People have everything, but very little still moves them. The bar for surprise is too high. Good food is normal. Nice views are normal. Convenience is normal. Over time, that comfort kills a very specific human trait: awe.
Money does that to people slowly. It does not make them evil or fake. It just numbs them.
When you can buy most things you want, the world stops hitting as hard.
There is less genuine reaction, less spontaneity, less chaos.
Now think about the people you have laughed the hardest with. The stories you still tell years later.
They usually do not come from the richest friends you have. They come from the ones who were broke or close to it. The ones who had to be creative to have fun. The ones who could turn a cheap plan into a great night.
They still felt everything fully because nothing was guaranteed and nothing was automated.
That is the piece I refuse to lose.
The susceptibility to awe. The ability to be impressed by small things. Poor friends usually still have that. Life has not been dulled for them yet. They care about stupid details. They overreact. They get hyped over things that a rich room would scroll past.
That energy carries a different weight entirely. It reconnects you with the basic feeling that life should actually hit you.
This is why my friend circle barely changed after money.
My core group has not been “updated” to match my money.
The friends I had before money still feel like the right mirror. They knew me when a good day was something simple. They relate to life in a way that does not require a high budget to feel worth living.
Keeping your poor friends.
It protects your sense of what is enough. It keeps your reference point connected to reality instead of to someone else’s excess. It keeps you close to people who are still impressed by being here at all.
If money changes your circumstances, fine. Let it. Just be careful with letting it change your circle.
Upgrading your friends can end up downgrading your life.
