making 100k from 100 million is easy peasy. All depends on starting capital but some expectations here are insane.

Your boy can't show a screenshot of his front-end? When asked we get excuses and some cut and pasted images or the CME sim-competition. He’s the real deal but trading a $3,500 account and attempting to pass some combine.
Let me guess; you share an IP address with @sstheo.

who is sstheo? Does he have another job? How is he able to sustain himself when his takings from the market is so low?
sstheo is the person that started this thread that you decided to post in. You can see the OP (sstheo) as the person that made the very first post.
Most likely he does have another job considering most at this forum have another job unless he's retired or already rich.

You can't be serious...
That's like Buster Douglas saying he "did ok" when he knocked out Mike Tyson or the Toronto Raptors saying they "did ok" when they defeated Golden State Warriors in the championship or France stunning New Zealand in the 2007 rugby quarter-final and then saying "yes, we did alright".

we're still the best looking horse at the glue factory.
I appreciate @mbondiett giving a character witness. No, we don't share IP addresses 
. We have spent a lot of time in a chat room discussing trades and sharing charts. By "the real deal" he was simply saying he knows I am not here to deceive anyone about anything. He did not claim I am a super-star trader.
In fact, I have been very open about my trading challenges, and how I am finally becoming consistent, thanks to the micros and thanks to better discipline.
I am a real estate agent who trades in the morning while my assistant does some research for me and I answer calls. After lunch, I put it in full gear on real estate.
Here is my current screen shot showing the time in the lower right and the current prices on four instruments and my current balance. (Time stamp is local Mountain time around 11:30)

I work in a narrow market niche working mainly with investors, and my income is inconsistent. So while the income is decent, candidly, it is not great.
Now I could spend a bunch of money on marketing and such, and get into the top 10% of agents (instead of just the top 25%), but I can't stand cold calling. I'd rather have sand in my eyes... LOL
I really like trading, and if I can prove the concept this year (with this journal) then I will probably do less real estate agency beginning next year, and just do more of my own personal real estate investing as I have in the past, having done about 30 rehabs.
Why chase what billions of others have failed to do? Now that is a great question. Perhaps I am just a misguided dreamer, but then I have to ask, "Why is anyone at all on ET?" Of course I have had a good run of doing my duty to help fund the big boys. But that chapter is finally coming to an end. Time to put all the pieces together and be on the receiving end. But here is the real "why": I lost a bunch of money because of some very bad real estate investments during the recession of 2008-2009, and I see trading as a viable way to get it back. I feel like I have paid my dues, and it is very exciting to see a graph like this:
