It doesn always work out. I did a thought experiment when I started trading 20 + years ago on what would happen If I made 1% per trading day in perpetuity. When the number computed was incomprehensible (trillions) I quickly realized that scaling expectations was going to be critical. If there were easy answers in this business, we would have trillionaires. We don't, which is instructive.
