die early, die rich!

recently

i came across a phrase

which initially disturbed me.

"trader who died rich

is the one who dies early."

even livermore died broke!

--

what's the logic behind the above
seemingly un-nerving phrase?

should we not trade?

is trading useless?

i don't think so.

i searched for a suitable answer.

and after some deliberation

i found one.....

---------

if one makes millions from trading

and keeps trading like jesse livermore

he is bound to succumb to

some unguarded moment

and lose it all.

but

on the other hand

if a successful trader

after making millions

was to turn into an investor

he is assured of dying rich

(if at all he ever dies).
