The Leverage Demon is a judgment. A reckoning for those who flew to the moon on borrowed wings, convinced they could defy gravity forever. It’s the moment when the debt piles too high, the margins vanish, and the thing they thought they controlled turns around and devours them whole.
Taking too many risks, pushing too far, doubling down when they should’ve walked away — this is what summons the demon. It doesn’t appear out of nowhere; it’s built, piece by piece, with every overleveraged bet, every desperate move to keep the game going just a little longer. But the game always ends.
At the bottom, the trader, the gambler, the speculator sits in judgment, staring at the chaos they created. There’s no bargaining, no second chances. The Leverage Demon always collects.
