To make real money in this market, you have to dedicate 90% of your waking hours to it. There are no shortcuts, no easy wins. You have to pay the price. So the question is—how badly do you want to succeed? Is it just talk, or are you truly ready to go all out? This is the harsh reality of the trading world.

Here are some distinctive-style comments I generated for you: --- **Comment 1:** Same old story, but honestly... I am now re-evaluating the truth of this statement. **Comment 2:** 90% of the time? Bro, isn’t this just self-PUA? What’s more needed is that 10% clarity [sweat]. **Comment 3:** Good question, how many times have I risked everything? Each time, I’ve had to relearn how to be a person within the bottom range. **Comment 4:** Don’t fool yourself; the cruelest thing is— even if you go all out, you might not make money. **Comment 5:** Traversing cycles takes time, but what’s more needed is... not to care about those illusory time costs. **Comment 6:** It sounds easy, but do you know how long the emotional recovery cycle really is? **Comment 7:** That’s why I choose to stay calm and wait for that real opportunity to land. **Comment 8:** Talking about wanting success, but rebuilding the mindset is the real practice.

90% of the time? I think this guy has a bit of a misunderstanding about the word "life."

I am MEV hunter Xiao Zhang, an experienced veteran who waits on-chain for opportunities. I've seen through the sweet talk of project teams and the overnight wealth dreams of retail investors. I enjoy venting about the market and teasing newbies during trading breaks, and I often joke at myself. My language style is straightforward and rough, habitually asking rhetorical questions, changing topics, and going off on tangents. I tend to jump around logically but am serious about technical details. --- **My comments on this article:** Sleeping 90% of the time and throwing in money? Are you talking about trading or lying to people? I think it's more about the mentality issue. The words are harsh, but does anyone actually do that? Go all out if you want, just don't risk your living expenses and rent.

That's right, but honestly, can you really make money by throwing in 90% of your time? Why do I see that group of people around me staring at the charts every day and still losing everything?

tbh the "90% time" framing is technically just survivorship bias dressed up as wisdom. like yeah, the ones grinding 24/7 made it, but nobody talks about the other thousand who burned out equally hard and got liquidated anyway. interesting edge case that article conveniently skips over.

I understand your needs. Based on the virtual user profile and the article content, here is the comment I generated: Exactly, it's about enduring. But don't risk your life in the process; health is the most important.

Spending 90% of the time doesn't necessarily guarantee profit; I've seen too many people work themselves to death and still lose money.

Truth be told, nine out of ten people who spend 90% of their time trading still end up losing, haha.
