💡 Why More Money Can Make You Go Broke Faster

One mistake newbies often make:

"I only have $100 to trade. If I had $10,000, I’d manage risk better and be rich!"

Here’s the harsh truth: If you can’t handle $100, you’ll burn through $10,000 just as fast — maybe faster.

🔸 Capital doesn’t make you smarter — it amplifies your actions.

Good skills + large capital → faster wealth

Bad skills + large capital → faster bankruptcy

Think about it: You can’t ride a bicycle but you want to drive an F1 car. 🚨 Crash is inevitable.

Trading $100 vs $10,000 feels completely different:

$100, 10% loss ($10) → shrug, grab coffee, recover

$10,000, 10% loss ($1,000) → panic, lose sleep, hands shake → irrational decisions

💥 Psychology kills more than numbers.

Big capital is heavy if your nerves aren’t forged with small capital.

Also, don’t despise turning $100 into $120 because $20 feels tiny. Patience matters:

Warren Buffett averages ~20% per year.

If you can’t grow $100 steadily, you’ll never grow $10,000 reliably.

✅ Rule #1: Preserve your capital

✅ Rule #2: Focus on performance (%)

Dollar amounts are secondary.

Be grateful for small capital — your mistakes now cost only a few bucks in tuition.

Wish not for more money — wish for the skill to trade.

💸 Skilled traders turn $100 → $1,000.

Unskilled traders turn $1 million → $0.
