I am about 200 pages in and am intrigued and fascinated. It is forcing me to examine myself and get confirmation about my own suspicions about myself. I would say that the author is reluctant to call this what it is: GAMBLING pure and simple. I feel GUTS and LUCK are the main ingredients to making it. People borrowing money from friends and family etc. They sounds like gambling junkies to me. While fascinated with these winners. I think a book should be devoted to the unfortunate GAMBLERS who lost it all and never got a chance to sit at the table. What % of traders NEVER make it. I am an options trader and LOVE the option's pricing model. It's incredible. I'm half way thru this book and haven't heard PUT option mentioned once. I keep turning the pages but each interview confirms these success stories are about who wins in the game of chicken, not loses. I do appreciate this book but honestly I feel the title can just as easily be Poker Player Wizards. I do think this is a valuable read and thank the author very much. It's a MUST read!!!
