I find Louis' question valid, but maybe it could have been expressed a
bit better. 

For someone who is starting out in this sector, it is good to know
that at least there are some people who are "actually making money".
Ideally, it would be good to know that more people are making money
than would occur due to trading on a random binomial process! This
information can provide the motivation needed to keep trying when
positive results seem far away.

I would like to rephrase his question and put it more concretely. 

Has anyone been making enough money to be able (or confident enough)
to give up their day job, and have been getting at least the same
level of income as they had in their day job every year for the last
five years?
