All one great big lie.
Today, basically, on Wall Street, the big money is made by taking risks.
Wall Street is one big turf war. By benefiting one person you are disadvantaging another person.
The nature of any human being, certainly anyone on Wall Street, is 'the better deal you give the customer, the worse deal it is for you'.
The whole government is a Ponzi scheme.
The person that is buying a share of stock is convinced he knows something that the other person who's selling it to him does not know. There's no zero sum game in Wall Street.
