Let's be straightforward. I’ve never claimed to be a sage, and you shouldn’t think of the people in this circle as completely pure—especially in this lawless land, having money and influence is the hard currency. Honestly, who doesn’t love money? I love it too.

Of course I want to earn the money I can make; after all, no one has ever been born loving too much money. My initial goal was 100,000, but once I got there, my eyes turned to 200,000, 300,000, even 1,000,000. Desires tend to inflate, and naturally, my methods have upgraded—where there’s a windfall, I go there; where there’s traffic, I dive in. There’s nothing really to criticize about that. But compared to simply earning commissions, I prefer to open real trading accounts and lead trades, earning 10% of your profit share, at least giving myself peace of mind. I’ve also done free lead trading with zero profit share, just to keep things fresh for myself, so every time I return, I open a lead trading channel.

I’ve also done commission sharing before, as I mentioned in previous articles. Why do I do it? Because it’s pure passive income—no need to set stop-losses, no need to understand technical analysis, and even no need to personally place trades. You just need a mouth, a candlestick chart, and the ability to provide emotional value, and naturally, people will obediently come to you as commission clients. As long as you keep them trading inside the market, regardless of profit or loss, your cash flow keeps coming steadily.

After the last black swan event, a major exchange made drastic changes to its commission rebate policy. A bunch of "teachers" who relied solely on rebates suddenly panicked and started recruiting people everywhere. Have you noticed that recently, rebate matrix teams are popping up in the marketplace? The reason is simple: besides rebates, they have no other income channels, and many of them even lose money on contracts themselves. Without rebates—this vital lifeline—the thrill of instant cash disappears—so they get desperate.
