Why Do People Trade when the Failure Rate is So High?

Quote from Bitstream:

tradin' offers the worst r/r of any biz. i mean, succesful traders can pull off 100-200k a yr yet most businesses can make more than that with lesser risks of total wipe out. ever thot what cud happen with a highly leveraged short postion stuck into a halt due to a takeover offer or pendin' news of a new drug approval for eg in case of a biotech company[?] of course there are exceptions but as a norm this is the tougher biz on earth where makin' millions is a dream for most.

1. B.S.
2. work on your english. "tradin'"? "lesser risks"? "thot" "cud"...come on man.
3. It is hard to make millions in anything. name something else where 100k-200k per year is easy?

I hear golf ball divers can make a nice living. Again, it all boils down to how hard you're willing to work :)
