You can make money off the stock market just as they do. I'm doing it.

Although I don't short stocks. I just buy and hold.

only if you have disposable money. rich people have lots of it, they can short with lower risks to their life. the average person does not have nearly that much, if any

Because they don't get told the same things as the rich kids do.

Start investing very early and don't spend all your money every month.

Over decades, it becomes millions.
