    I wish I knew how to do this. I just invested like $100 (lol) in like 5 different things and watch the line go up and down. I think one day the most I made was $10.

    Need someone to teach me how to game the system.

      I think you usually have to risk a lot in order to win a lot. But I’ve never done it (because it’s bad). I feel like the only ethical investing is shorting companies, which is insanely risky and regularly drives people out of their minds.

      That guy would also probablly freely admit he also doesn’t know “how he did it”.

      It’s like gambling, at best if you’re really really good at it you slightly increase your chances of a decent payout.

      Also you have to make it to the “really really good” phase before you bankrupt yourself.
