A lot of it is luck but you also have to spend a lot of time putting yourself in the position where the luck would even happen or make sense.

You're about half way through the process of crypto enlightenment, OP.

At the beginning, you think it's easy/controllable/read some babypips TA guide, can't lose.

Then some while later there's the "it's pure luck, might as well go to a casino" phase.

Eventually you return - more confidently and in a different way - to the "I am in complete control of this timeline" idea

Luck doesn't exist. Good or bad fortune comes to you depending on your karma credit from previous lives. If you were a good person you will get good fortune in this life, if you were bad you will get shit on repeatedly.

If you are talking about gambling like day trading and crypto? 100%

Business? I'd say 40% luck. You see retards make it big here and there, but some people are too stupid and useless to win even with all the cards in their favor. They are just trash

Most things may come down to luck. But I have noticed that some people seem to have a gift for receiving a disproportionate amount of luck

Casinos are scams. Even if you are "lucky" the casino will find a way to cheat you out of your winnings. If you lose then that's fine and dandy but if you win then they scrutinize you.

"Did you win or did your 17 year old underage friend here take part?"

"Anon you cheated didn't you. We don't take kindly to cheaters so we're banning you from our casinos."

"Anon you keep winning so you've been banned from all casinos internationaly."

"Oh no anon you didn't win $40 million, our machine actually just had a glitch".

If you aren't smart then smart people will take your money from you before you even have a chance to touch it. It's not luck.

>> No.16217915

>>16217444
That's because if you are smart you only pick low risk high return plays to put your money. If you keep playing high return low risk plays chances are you will become very rich.

You know nothing kid. Casinos are businesses just like any other, and they live on their reputation. Swindling people out of their winnings is a fast way to bankruptcy. They already have an edge on every single dollar that's gambled inside their building so they have no reason to fuck people over.

I have never made an investmwnt in something that didn't end up outperforning the market. I don't play games unless victory is assured from the get go. I always do my research before I put my money anywhere and I examine competitors. I am guaranteed to make money as long as I am smary but the exact amount of profit I do make is in some part based on 'luck'. Luck is just what we call an opportunity which we didn't understand. The more you know the less luck has an influence on the outcomes.

This. The rule is:

>I want x outcome
>If x < 50% probable, success is chance
>Therefore improve probability of success into an acceptable tolerance

Your decision making increases or decreases the probability of a desired outcome, therefore stack probability in your favor with your actions
