On the surface this might seem strange, one would think that if people start to make life changing kinds of money they would be happy to credit you with at least some of this success.
I think however the reason they don't do this is because very few people are successful straight after taking a trading course. It takes most people a long time (we are often talking years) before they start making money. Adam was probably one of the few who managed to get it, fairly quickly and so was happy to give you some credit.
Don't get me wrong, I think trading courses are not a waste of money, but I think they are just a first step on a very difficult learning path. So lets say trader A takes a trading course and loses money or breaks even for the next couple of years, in their third year things finally start to click and in their fourth year they have to start finding ways of getting around the 60% PC charge. Its not surprising really that they are not going to think the trading course they took four years ago has had much influence on their current success.
