Are you still torn between trading stocks and trading cryptocurrencies? Let me tell you the stories of those who are truly smart.



Newton derived the law of universal gravitation but was ultimately defeated in the stock market in 1725, eventually turning to faith in God to heal himself. Marx wrote passionately about "Capital," only to be trapped in the stock market himself, relying on Engels' support to survive — an irony to the extreme.

Even Churchill, who dominated politics, wasn't spared. In 1930, he lost everything in stock trading but turned his life around by winning the election for Prime Minister. Chiang Kai-shek in 1921 lost all his money in stocks and instead threw himself into revolution, becoming a legendary figure.

And it doesn't end there. What about Trump? In 2025, he personally took control of the crypto and stock markets, and as a result, became the richest person on Earth — this guy's actions tell everyone that the rules of the financial game are never understandable to ordinary people.

So, this game of finance seems like anyone can play, but in reality, many geniuses have stumbled here. Getting out is a hundred times harder than getting in😎
