A lot of people don't possess the capital to, well, capitalise on these events. I tried day trading as early as march, but guess how far 100 dollars of starting investment got me?

The shame is not that people don't have financial literacy.

100 dollars for day trading is shit. You should never risk more than 2% of your account in a trade, that means on average you’d have to be satisfied with making a couple bucks of profit per trade.

I think that's the point the parent was making. If you simply don't have enough money to trade profitably with, then… you can't trade profitably.
