Mercury poisoning

Dumb ass NEETs think roulette, aka shitcoins, forex, day trading, and poker, are legitimate investment vehicles.

Because people have no damn patience any more.

Start talking about indexing and dividends on this board and people lose their shits, telling you to invest in some random penny stock or memecoins.

lump sum is superior

selection bias
ten people invest, two people earn money, eight people lose money - 80% of people lost money
the two that earned money post, and one loser stops to bitch - therefore, random anon thinks that 67% of people MADE money

You are correct sir. But not everyone is sitting on a lump sum. The majority of people save part of their income and put it over time in the market, aka dollar cost averaging.

Actually, value cost averaging is better. Don't spread lies
