But that little spread they have over you allows them to win almost always, as long as you stay in the casinos. So I really feel like the market is the same. You can have days where you do really well, but they've got a spread and edge over retail traders. And what will happen when you spend long enough in the market, it doesn't matter how much you make, you'll always give it back.

Now, what that actually looks like, I think a lot of people, including myself, thinks that when you figure out how to run automation in the market or you have success, it means it's going to look pretty all the time and you're always going to be in the green.

But it's like the harsh reality that the market is very similar to everything else. If you want to go and become a brain surgeon, you don't begin studying and then wake up qualified, right? And the market is no different, especially when it comes to investing.

It's not going to make you rich overnight. It's not going to give you all the wealth of your dreams. But if you run the system, what it will do is it will allow you to actually start to see returns out of a market in a scenario where most people can't. And that's a very powerful thing because once you have the ability to pull out passive income from there, you can do a lot with it.

I needed someone to back me and come in and put in some funding and start the company together.
