Sunk cost fallacy

  1. Tough question to answer.

    You wanna say Persevere and all that good Inspirational stuff and the rewards will come....But some males who enter trading are as dumb and stubborn as a plank of wood and are not cut out for trading. And are not likely to ever be.

    Vice versa for Social Media personalities....some people are just born for show business while others are not, they belong behind the camera doing something else in a different role

    Back to trading though....books and courses are absolute shit. They do more harm than good for aspiring traders. Salesmen and conmen selling that shit to gullible new people. You have to think and view things slightly more independently

    Is it a coincidence, or did you just reference the movie "Heavy Metal" there? ;-)

    Has to be a coincidence, I haven't seen a movie in years.
