So your logic is that if an account is large enough, it cannot potentially be taken out.

Have you ever looked at how many times Jesse Livermore lost it all? Or more recently, Bear Stearns?
Look more than 90% of traders in this market are working with small accounts, many of them do good trades & take their profits even for many months but just because of one mistake, or not paying attention to the trading rules they loose all they have got,but if the account is big enogh to be longer in the market they dont loose like that.

Being under-capitalized is one problem.

The two other problems are over-leverage and lack of money management.

The lesser problem in all 3 is under-capitalization. With patience, time and skills, that can be resolved.

But no amount of money can solve lack of money management and over-leveraging.

that's very true - and I agree.. nobody listens to me though lol. It's much easier to get a flat with thin tread.

Bear Stearns got "bought out" shotgun wedding style by JPMorgan for what was announced to be $2/share but ended up being $10/share.

For a company that was trading at $133.20/share, that's not a bailout.
