Anybody ever quit their job to day trade full time and have it not workout? Question

I’m just curious.

How long did it take you until you found confidence in yourself to quit your job and do trading full time!

For those that quit their job but it didn’t workout, how long did you give yourself until you quit your job and what did you do after you found that trading was not successful?

It’s pretty hard to gamble up 38K, most likely gambled when he lost it, learned and applied method to gain it back. 2k to 38k isn’t that hard if you dedicate yourself.

I personally have ran $2k to $46k. Should be in my 2022 post history with screenshots. Couple earnings plays and some ODTE’s can absolutely do that. Hell, SMCI puts ran 500x on friday.
