There is no better idea than to trade or invest on your own with your own money. Do not be dependent on other people because you know that they're great traders or what. In this market, no one is great and everyone can get killed by the market by surprise. Those people that are also taking advantage of misinformed people, don't take investments from them, teach them how to invest in the market and let them know how risky it is to go here without having proper knowledge on how to deal with such volatile market.
A loan in some cases can be our salvation, but you should not even think about a loan for investment, at least I have not heard a single story when someone could take a loan, invest this money and make a profit. And even if I saw one such case, I would take it with skepticism, because I consider it stupidity, which carries much more danger than benefits and common sense.
I have heard a lot of sad stories about those people that took loans for investments. They've never done their research first before going all in with those investments that they were too happy to get in with the loan they've taken and guess what, majority of it got no luck.
Trading is risky, some people lost their own personal money in trading, and I still don't know why one would think of borrowing money to trade in the name of making money. People mostly make this mistake when they put money as the first priority to make out of trading. If people should take their time to learn I think they won't be making thus mistake in trading. This mistake happens due to ignorance, lack of knowledge. Learning should be the first step to consider in trading and not to think of making money which will definitely end up in a bad result.
Well, we use our personal money in trading and investing and that's much better than using someone else's money with trading and investing while it's in our hands.
Someone who takes a loan for trading has got that not-so-unique purpose and that's to make money. And their greed is harming them because they have never foreseen what's in it for them to come until they go into the actual situation of losing not just the money but also the trust of the lender.
