Quote from Mysteron:
No.
The latter part of my education has provided me with the analytical skills to think for myself, question and find solutions or workarounds to whatever problems life may throw at me.
Clearly we all need educating otherwise none of us would be communicating over the internet, it would not exist, and we would wear animal skins for clothes and probably die before we were 30 due to non-existent health care.
The theme of the thread seems to be that education is somehow conditioning the masses to be controlled by the few, if there is any evidence of that then I'd like to have it revealed or explained in plain language.
Firstly, as I keep mentioning, it is wise to be able to quickly spot the difference between bullshiters and those who know
JH has just proven he is a bs artist with his silly and ridiculous comments:eek:
Long term memory is right in front of your eyes, so there is no need to remember it
Now, back to what REALLY matters most
Most of us are born into circumstance, and, we have very little control over what way we are brought up. For those who are brought into this world by ignorant parents, again, which is unfortunately the majority, there is already a very big hill to climb and overcome.
Ones ability to accept the TRUTH of the way things are, is the first real step in progress, for, if we are to accept everything just because our parents tell us it is the right thing to do, we are really not thinking for ourselves.
Look at religion, fr instance:eek:
We have some people who won't eat red meat which is full of protein and other good brain requirements, some people who will not take blood even if the last drop is dripping out of them, some people who defend men in black suits even after it has been proven that they have been molesting young and innocent children for years, and, many more silly and ridiculous things that I am sure you can think of yourself:eek:
It is said that History repeats itself over and over, and, do you now see why!
Radical thinking is a very powerful thing, but, must not be done blindly and without first considering the consequences, for, once one accepts that "everything happens for a reason", things become much more clear and are easily understood.
Now, who really gives a shit about who done what in the past, who was the best at this and the worse at that, for, it really does not matter, at all
Nature has provided ample for all, but, due to the ability of strong minds to control weak minds, the few have most and the majority have least. It really is a cruel world, but only if you let it be!
The first real step to financial independence, is, realizing that making money is really very easy in the markets, for, we are dealing with people who have been conditioned to think in certain ways, and, once we understand this, we can actually SEE what they are thinking, and thus, be one step ahead of them
Anyone that talks about analyzing volume, spread, angles, geometric ratios, and all the other myriad of mindless meaninglessness, well, clearly show that they are still bound by the limits of what their parents have passed on to them.
BTW, I have great respect for my parents, dead and living, but, I also accept the fact that they were brought up in a very ignorant and brainwashed society, and, they were not fortunate enough to have gone thru the experience in life that I have, for, it is only by experience that wisdom is acquired, and, it is the application of wisdom that produces change, and the most wise thing that one can experience in trading, is..
" A wise man learns from the mistakes of OTHERS"
Do you now see why TE is the real EXPERT, and the others, who need not be named, are, well, just ignorant bullshit artists that know absolutely nothing about trading
