I only feel pressure when I cannot provide for my family. The money I can, what a 17 year old does, doesn't really affect me. Infact most of the time, isn't of pressure I felt motivated. So whether they've lied or not, the motivation I get is to always keep pushing. At least I've gained something positive. 
However, it's becoming too much. I don't doubt that a 17 year old can build a house, but to do it with forex money, forex that's actually difficult most take someone to be a genius.
