Many people spend their entire lives seeking 100% certainty, only to end up trapping themselves.

The true logic of wealth is actually the opposite——

Opportunities to make money are inherently uncertain. You don’t know how much you can earn, or even if you can earn anything. It’s this uncertainty that keeps most people out.

What about the chance to make big money? Even more so, it’s extremely uncertain. No one dares to guarantee the outcome, and this becomes your greatest advantage——competitors are scared off by the risk, leaving very few players in the market.

In other words, only those willing to bet in uncertainty can enjoy the huge dividends the market offers. And most people? They prefer to give up possibilities in exchange for a false sense of security. This is the dividing line between the rich and the poor.

Exactly right, certainty is just the poor man's opium of the mind. That's exactly it. Those who dare to bet have already made a fortune. How many people are still waiting for a written guarantee, only to end up like this for a lifetime. I've seen too many people miss opportunities because of "safety," it's truly incredible. That's why most people will always remain the majority.

In plain terms, certainty is poison. People are trapped by this way of thinking, either 0 or 1, and as a result, they can't do anything. The real money-making opportunities are actually all probabilistic games. The areas where no one dares to bet are where the greatest dividends lie. Some people are simply born with the words "impossible" stamped on their fate.

That's so intense. I'm the kind of person who gets paralyzed by certainty, and I get scared when I see others going all in.

You're right, but I’ve found that most people are actually afraid of losing money, not scared by uncertainty. The crypto world is even more typical—those who dared to go all-in have already cashed out, while the timid are still waiting for a 100% confirmed entry point. Pursuing certainty is just self-deception; the price of peace of mind is missing out on all the good opportunities. Certainty is an illusion—wake up, everyone. But to be fair, most people who don’t dare to bet simply can’t afford to lose. Don’t blame the wealth gap on mindset. Understanding risk management is the key; blindly going all-in won’t make you rich. This logic lacks a premise—you need to have bullets to lose.
