Yeah I went to school and busted my ass studying and dealing with a stupid whore leach gf. Then she left me and I finally graduated with a degree in accounting and economics and got a job. Busted my ass at my job for 8 years and now I work from home making $90k a year.

What is your plan exactly, retard? Live off mommy's allowance until you luck into some shitcoin pump n dump and never work again? Have you even thought anything through or do you think people who make money from investing just sit at home and jerk off while their portfolio passively doubles every month?

LOL big meme. The difficulty is in getting the energy to do something not applying the energy. Applying energy is easy. Generating it is not.

You know how easy everything is with the correct energy and focus? The analogy is like driving a car. You can go anywhere you want if you have the gasoline. It's just a matter of steering.

It's like saying "I busted my ass driving 10 hours today!"...No you didn't, all you did was steer.

Here's a random thought I had today: remember when the media was reporting on Stephen Paddock, the Las Vegas shooter, and everyone was wondering where his money came from? His brother called him a "professional gambler" and the media just parroted that, while rational people were like, "That's not possible, no one can live as a professional gambler." What if Paddock was really a cryptocurrency trader and his boomer brother didn't really understand that and just called him a "gambler" which was close enough? It make a hell of a lot more sense than the idea that he made a vast fortune playing slots. He probably just hung out at the casinos for fun.
