Just keep in mind that financial markets are a zero-sum game. For every gain one person makes, other people lose that much.

Eh... Don't know why that's relevant here, but keep in mind that any financial gain is a zero sum game?

Well just that OP asked for a get rich quick idea, and you essentially said "I went to a casino and made a profit" even though the odds are usually that you will lose money at a casino

Having worked in a casino myself let me guarantee you, it's far from the same thing.
