That whole “trader lifestyle” stuff is BS. Trading while travelling sucks, trading after a night of partying is never a good idea. To actually trade well you need to be locked in, good routine, eating and sleeping right. You just can’t really do that when you’re travelling. Lock into trading and then take vacations where you don’t trade at all, this is the only way to do it.
Joining the military is a life hack to becoming a trader. Was in there for 6 years before leaving but it gave me an insane work ethic and discipline. Tried trading when I came out and was consistently profitable in my first 15 months. That was 6 years ago when I first started and now I’m funded $800k and have a $350k personal account. Trading full-time while travelling with my wife and kid. Most kids on here have no discipline which is why they don’t win, they expect to make trading work but don’t even put in 1 hour a day into learning.
Let others lead small lives, but not you
Let others argue over small things, but not you
Let others cry over small hurts, but not you..
Let others leave their future in someone else's hands, but not you

The goal isn’t just to own Bitcoin.
The goal is to reach a point where you don’t have to work a job you hate just to survive.
Higher income + aggressive DCA + time = job-free life on your terms.
Most will talk about it.
Few will actually do it.
Never argue with strangers online. But if you catch yourself about to, remember this: only about 13% of U.S. adults read at a proficient level, and more than half read below a sixth grade level.
You are not debating. You are typing into the void.
One of the craziest things about growing older is watching the people around you lose that spark in their eyes. We used to talk about how fly our house would be, the cars we were gonna collect, our daily drivers, the old schools, the watches, the vacations we would go on, the fly pics in other countries to show our sons how to really live life, buying real estate in other countries, the stories we would keep to ourselves because some parties got too wild, floor seats at the games, being wealthy random people with the best seats, the wedding, spoiling our wives, letting them drive our fly cars to school, all the big dreaming we did as young’ns… and now it’s all out the window.
Now it’s just: “Did you see the highlights from last night’s game?” “Where the hoes at?” “Look at the reels I sent you.” “Get on the game.” Drinks in the bar, which clubs are dope, etc
No more schemes about getting rich and doing fly shit and keeping our freedom. No more talks about how we would be better and more calculated than the people who came before us. No more mispronouncing countries we never heard of but were for sure gonna get to somehow. No more dreams. No more ambition. Just slowly rotting away watching TikToks and sports all day.
Even worse is when these people start criticizing the ones who actually stuck to the plan. You used to want success like him, cars like him. He just stayed consistent, and you became a critic. Now the only thing we can talk about is.. Where the hoes at?
“Only 4% of u.s households make over $200 ,000 everyone is lying and fake rich!”
Brother.. 4% of 131 million households is 5 million households making over $200,000 per year
That’s a lot of people making good money
You can be one of them
