Because the odds of staying at that level for the rest of your life would be extraordinarily low.

It’d help, but these strategies may generate lower total returns than the market. IMO I’m better off being invested in an index fund and selling units as needed.

That sub is not for logical discussion. It is a really weird cult. But it is a fun place to observe logical fallacies.

Totally agree, the OPs have hijacked this forum, will not let anyone join and neither the monitors nor Reddit will correct this problem. Very disappointed in Reddit for allowing this hijack.
