What They Said and What I Did

People have told me that what I do in the stock market isnโ€™t real, is a statistical fluke, that I am lying, that it could not possibly be true. Meanwhile I take very small risks (for me) and make good money given my actual risk level (almost nil). Iโ€™m not getting super rich because I mostly donโ€™t use leverage* and I donโ€™t play with any money I canโ€™t afford to lose.

That โ€œnot realโ€ money that was a โ€œstatistical flukeโ€ that has gone on for more than 25 years somehow just bought us a goddamn 3/4 of a million dollar house in cash (we paid equal shares). No mortgage, no financing, all greenbacks.

So fuck all yโ€™all. I got the real estate to prove Iโ€™m just as awesome as I say I am. Just because you canโ€™t do what I do doesnโ€™t mean I cannot. Dang.

*Leverage is how you make big money, but you occasionally lose everything. And the government wonโ€™t bail me out when that happens like it does the banksters, so canโ€™t do that.
