I AM A TRADER, BUT I DON'T HAVE MONEY.
We need to stop this toxic myth that sticks to all traders, especially beginners.
In this society, just saying "I am a trader" suddenly makes everyone expect you to already be a millionaire, driving a fancy car, flashing the latest iPhone, living in a villa with a pool.
But why this absurd cliché?
When a young doctor graduates, no one asks him where his Mercedes is.
When an engineer starts his career, no one is surprised that he lives in a modest studio.
But the trader is not allowed to be normal. The trader must prove his wealth, display his success; otherwise, he is not credible. This complex, this social pressure, is real.
It makes beginners feel illegitimate, doubt themselves, believe that they are not "real traders" because they have not yet achieved the financial success that is imposed on them.
But the truth is that trading is a job, a journey, a marathon. It is not a lottery where one becomes rich overnight. It takes years of learning, losses, doubts, questioning, discipline, and patience.
To all those who are starting out, to all those who are struggling, to all those who do not yet have the means to afford the luxury expected of them: You are traders, even without a Rolex, even without a BMW, even without a penthouse.
Your worth is not measured by your lifestyle, but by your determination and courage.
Trading is a path.
And every path begins humbly. Never let society make you believe that you are not enough. Keep moving forward, fighting, growing. Success will come with time, not with the pressure of others.
I am a trader, but I am not rich. And I do not have to apologize for it.
