If it was as easy as having $5,000 to turn it into $10,000 a month there would be hundreds doing it. $5,000 is not a lot and those with $5,000 would have the market cornered.

This is GFY and it's easy to tell people complete illogical bullshit that in the real world people see through it right away.

"Give me $5,000 and I can turn it into $10,000 a month. It's easy."

"I quit a successful job, when it becomes a pain in the ass."

That's just this thread.
