The Way of Daoism—so what’s up with the promised transcendence? Why does he seem even better at doing business than ordinary people?

Trading analysis is a professional skill: you invest your time and energy, and then you charge a fee. That is perfectly reasonable in any industry. The key is that he’s charging for “analysis services,” not for “spiritual attainments bestowed by Dao.”

The proper approach: put it plainly—“I’m a trader; I charge research and analysis fees.” Privately, use self-cultivation to subdue greed, anger, and delusion. That’s unity of knowledge and action.

· If you misread the market, be able to admit it calmly and don’t look for mystical excuses. The membership fee you pay buys you cognition and experience.
· If he says, “Your karma isn’t strong enough,” then don’t doubt him—he hasn’t even touched the edge of “the Dao.” It’s just business.

“Cultivating the Dao” is personal belief, not a professional protective talisman. You can respect a trader who charges money, and you can also respect a hermit monk. But that person who uses “cultivating the Dao” to give you a psychological massage about trading—well, you can call him a “god” if you want to.
