Your $500 Trading Account Is a Scam
Not because you can't trade. Because the math doesn't work.
Let's say you're actually good. You hit a 10% monthly return—better than most professionals.
On your $500 account, you just made $50.
That's one dinner. Half a tank of gas.
Now run the same month on a $100K account.
Same 10% return. You just made $9,000.
The only difference? Account size.
This is why prop firms exist.
You prove you can trade. They give you up to $200K of demo capital. You keep up to 90% of the rewards.
No $100K investment required. No 4 years of compounding from $500. Just your skill, executed at scale.
How It Works:
Take a trading challenge (prove you can manage risk and hit targets)
Pass and get funded with a simulated account ($10K–$200K+)
Trade, hit targets, get paid rewards
February Deal: Buy any challenge this month → Get a $1,000 instant funded account free. No evaluation. No waiting. Start trading immediately while you work through your challenge.
Two accounts. One purchase.
The Math That Matters
5% monthly return:
Your $500 account = $25 profit
$100K funded account = $4,500 profit
That's 180x more. Same skill. Same strategy.
Lark Funding has paid traders for 3+ years. No consistency rules. No news restrictions.
Request a payout. We send it. That's the process.
February offer ends Feb 28. After that, you're paying full price for both accounts.
Stop grinding pennies. Start trading at scale.
📰 Buffett's Swan Song: Dumping Amazon, Buying Newspapers He Called "Toast"
Warren Buffett's final quarter as Berkshire Hathaway CEO just dropped, and it's a masterclass in saying "I'm out" to Big Tech's AI spending spree while betting on... wait for it... newspapers.
The Amazon Massacre: Berkshire just sold 77% of its Amazon stake, selling off 7.7 million shares. The position that was worth $2.1 billion at the end of Q3 shrank to roughly $457-525 million. This is the same stock Buffett bought in 2019 after admitting he'd been "an idiot" for not buying it sooner. Apparently, watching Amazon announce plans to spend $200 billion on AI infrastructure in 2026 cured him of that regret real fast.
The Plot Twist: While dumping tech, Buffett quietly built a $352 million position in The New York Times—5.07 million shares of a business he literally declared "toast" in 2020 when he sold off Berkshire's entire newspaper portfolio.
Why This Makes Sense: The New York Times isn't your grandpa's dying local paper. It's a digital powerhouse with sticky subscription revenue from news, Wordle, and The Athletic. Buffett loves recurring revenue and trusted national brands. NYT checks both boxes without the existential AI spending panic currently destroying Amazon's stock.
The Market's Reaction: NYT shares rocketed over 10% in after-hours trading. Classic "Buffett Effect"—retail investors see the Oracle buy something and pile in immediately.
The Real Story: Buffett's final quarter was about extreme caution. He trimmed Apple and Bank of America again, dumped expensive tech, and pushed Berkshire's cash pile to a record-breaking $380 billion. Translation: he thinks everything's too expensive and would rather sit on a mountain of cash than chase AI hype.
The Munch Take: When the greatest investor alive spends his final quarter selling tech and buying newspapers, that's not him being senile, it’s him sending us all a warning.
