People play with money they don't have to get things to impress people that don't care. :)
That is true for leverage trading, but not only. When I read this, my first thought was US citizens living in the US. Everything is bought on credit and when you look into their finances, everything they have is owned by banks and financial institution.
But I suspect that I am here for a long time, not a good time
I'm here for both 😎
I buy everything on credit, to collect reward points, so I can buy other things with the reward points. But I pay it off before the statement arrives. I cost them money, I don't know what they make from my data, but I may as well get something for spending someone else's money, before paying it off with my own later on :)
