This is hypocritical

Nope, what I said was correct. It's literally impossible to risk money you don't have. It's possible to get money sometimes, for some people. You can have a job, get investment, get government welfare or subsidies, get money from a charity, etc. These aren't all universally available options to everyone, and if they're unavailable to you, you don't have access to money, and it's literally impossible to spend it if you don't have it. What I said was tautologically true, and supposed to be a simple premise to the actual point I made. It wasn't something you were supposed to disagree with, because it's literally true just by the construction of the statement.
