> If you want to make money work on your skills and get a job.

OK, fine. During the pandemic, I picked up and studied trading, and made more money doing that than my actual job (assistant teacher at a university).

I know the next step I'm going to take.

Everyone in the market made money last year. Did you at least outperform the S&P?

S&P gained 16.26% in 2020, roughly 3x average annual gains.
