Waste of time and energy even engaging Derek, when you counter his argument with verifiable facts he just ignores them and moves on to the next fantasy. To be fair he's not the only one on this thread who has done that, or maybe he is? Its hard to know how many aliases some have on the forum.
If I can rescue just one person in my lifetime from a world of delusion it will all be worthwhile. :)

I think this is something I can definitely 100% agree with you on... life is full of little surprises :lol:
I'll get that framed and put on the wall :)

Problem with debating people is it leaves your ego open to exploitation, be it by wind up merchants or aliases.
Wind up merchants and aliases you can engage with but absolutely pointless engaging with trolls on any platform

OMG this is fo much fun seeing all these people mocking me... i'll take it good spirits though!

Oops, ... did i just see that texas have put in an hugely significant outcome-determinant legal challenge to pennysylvania, georgia,wisconsin and Virginia? Looks like Biden price has already gone up to 1.05, Trump coming in to 18 now!

Looks like the possibilities of him being arrested wont even be needed anyway at this rate!

How silly of me to lay Biden, i must have been talking out of my bottom this whole time! :D

You should trade horse racing in-play. Trump comes into 18 and you're getting exited as though it's a likely winner. :lol:

Unfortunately for me i know nothing about horses, footie, or anything else for that matter!

But the connection between the election, globalist agendas, covid, climate change, and the deep state... and how they are all interlinked..... thats something i think know quite a lot about

Lets just say i wouldnt dare put even a penny down on Biden, or any part of the election, without working out why covid suddenly appeared in the election year...

Meanwhile, im still trying to work out what colour to order my lambo in :D

Or which asylum to pick?

Seriously, life will drive you mad if you think it's geared against you. Having worked at a variety of levels, it's really hard to get groups of people to do even simple tasks competently, let alone a whole string of aligned global conspiracies. Just the stuff of pure fantasy.

You guys are hilarious!

Getting groups of people is easy when you have pots of money to incentivize them, and plenty of time to roll out your plans. How on earth do you think Hitler got his SS to lead people into ovens? How do you think he got them all to hate the Jews so much that they would persecute them throughout Europe? Its called propaganda, and its all around us. When you beak free from it, and are able to recognize it, you begin to see the truth through all the bs

When I've been interviewed, people always question if the market is efficient and how do I make money?

I always pull out the same apocryphal tale of how I find myself often walking along a cliff edge being careful to get the thrill of seeing the edge but not falling over it, when I spot somebody who is about to jump.

When I ask why they are about to jump, they recount this detailed narrative of why they are not afraid because they can fly. I go into great depth about the science of why that is not true and if they do jump, it will be to their death.

At which point the person jumps, just to prove me wrong.

And that my friends, is how I've made so much money in financial and betting markets.
