- nurettin 9y agoThese kinds of statements unfortunately depend on your personal credibility. Anyone can claim to be doing anything in order to feel good about themselves. I'd suggest keeping this to a circle of people who personally know you and know that this is true, not a bunch of strangers who will doubt your every word.
- SirLJ 9y agoYou are probably right, but still I find it very amusing, if I was saying I am making the same amount of money with some sort of referral web site market dubious products, everyone here would have been very excited, but as soon as I mention the Stock Market I am getting down voted... This explains a lot: Wall Street is definitely succeeding brainwashing even the smart people that investing is something very complicated and everyone should be happy with average returns... Years ago the rage were the mutual funds, now are the passive buy and hold index funds (don’t get me wrong I have one long-term strategy investing in SPY, but making twice the average) No good deed goes unpunished here I guess... Not that I care very much, since I am not selling anything or peddling a personal blog for example... But what opens my eyes it the realization, that those people that dismiss the idea about making money from the stock market are the ones I am making money from one way or another, in the end it is a zero sum game, so if you are not making money in the stock market you are probably loosing one way or another...
- nurettin 9y agoThe difference between these (good) examples on HN https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8499305 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8499305 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11887147 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11887147 And your so-called good behavior in hn is; you show no substance whereas they provide something to start hacking. Perhaps this helps?
- SirLJ 9y agoThanks, I did check both examples and what it strikes me about them and other similar "good" examples on HN are they are usually based on failed strategies or technologies, so basically the discussions are pointless... All in all, the YCombinator is a for profit corporation, which by censorship and bullying (or so called "down voting") is shaping the people on Hacker News to frown upon small or lifestyle businesses, because they need the flock of dreamers to get their underpaid workers to work on mostly failed startups... They are not out to help you or anybody else, this is how they make the money in the end and they go after everyone who threatens their business model... If you are to remember just one thing from my short stint around here, please remember this: They need you, but you do not need them! Good luck!
- nurettin 9y agoWell, no, you did not look at them. First link doesn't constitute a trading strategy at all. Again, all rant and no substance. I'm starting to think asking for more is pointless after this moment. I give up.
- SirLJ 9y agoI said failed strategies or technologies, but better would be failed ideas, which is precisely the same point...
