People’s reactions to trading

The phenomenon of making money on the Internet has long been notorious; for years people have been advertised services with which you can quit your boring job, lie on the couch at home, and money will miraculously fall from the sky somewhere on your computer, tablet or phone, just register on website, send an SMS with the code, make a payment…

Free cheese seemed appetizing in any mousetrap. And so people stepped on the rake, returned to their factories, and you still found the philosopher’s stone and now you are turning everything around into gold. You are a cunning alchemist, and such people used to be accused of witchcraft and burned. Of course, you won’t be burned, but in the eyes of others you will be either a sorcerer or a madman.

This wonderful folklore is like:

– “Are these binary options? That’s where they cheat fools out of money!”

– “No one makes money on the Internet, go get a normal job!”

— “My former neighbor lost his apartment on Forex”

– “I worked in a brokerage company, urgently run away from this topic, you will be fooled!”

— “I also tried to make money on the Internet, but it was all a scam.”

– “Are you playing on the stock market? Are you all right?”

The list could go on for a long time. This divine cliché of a person who is out of touch with reality, prone to dubious ways of making money, antisocial or simply mentally ill, is with you for a long time. They will look at you with distrust or misunderstanding, and it doesn’t matter whether your money is stable or not, whether it’s big or small, nothing can break people’s stereotypes, especially if they see stock charts in front of you. It’s probably best to ignore this endless curse. Money doesn’t smell and if you don’t have problems with the tax service, then does it matter what they think of you?

Are you able to maintain a stable neutrality when reacting to such condemnation?
