Retail investor: I'm gonna learn to day trade. That's where the real money is.


Me: How's it going so far?
Retail investor: Up some days, down others. I'll get there though.
Me: 94% of day traders lose money long term. You really think you're in the 6%?
Retail investor: I mean… somebody has to be.
Me: Sure. Somebody wins the lottery too. I stopped trying to be the exception. I simply buy great companies for less than they are worth and use long duration options to magnify ultra bullish setups.
Retail investor: So you're not glued to charts all day?
Me: I check things maybe 10 minutes a day. T
he other 99% of my time is just… living.
Don't grind yourself into the 94% trying to be the 6%.
The boring strategy you keep ignoring is the one that actually works.
