I started playing chess 2 months ago on chess.com. I never played before. I just saw a YouTube video and I just say let me try it and now I play 5-8 rapid games everyday. I am 50% global rank by now. If I keep playing at this rate how long does it take to be GM.

sorry, but you will never get there. globally, 605 million people play chess (according to FIDE). 1700 of them have made grandmaster. do the math.

I don't know exactly, but if you have enough free time, you can make this title.
Time is money. Sometimes chess doesn't deserve our time.

     Do you know that the GM title can only be won by playing (successfully) vs other GMs and IMs? They will also be devoting themselves to being the best they can be at chess. Many may have more talent than you. Only a very small % of humans have the mix of abilities needed to rise to the top of the chess world. 

     If you wish to become as good as you can at chess, go for it. Do not depend on reaching GM level. You'll probably be better off playing as much chess as you enjoy, learning what you can, and not quitting your day job.

no. you cant. not even with all the time in the world.

You don't need this rating. Chess won't bring you enough money & fun, and this stake is too big, especially if you're starting your road when you're pretty old.

It's a piece of good advice. Just enjoy the game, if you can. Life is too short for chess.

Maybe so, lol.

If you go to a traditional chess club you will see how players rated 1900 or 2000 can win to you even not seeing the chess board, and they are easy meat for a GM. A GM don't even need to sit down on the board to win to them, and so you get a better perspective about what chess really is.

Jason you say?

Ah, read this again.

 

Wow, and you can't think of solid responses... As usual. "Hmmm... What should I do, maybe just insult." Come on. You're more boring than the exchange French.

Read this again. Perhaps 2, 3, idk maybe even 1000 times. You seem to have deliberately misunderstood my point, based on, again, your insults.

It's like someone saying, "Hey, stop eating apples. It's weird."

Then they keep on eating apples, acknowledging their statement, but then they turn the conversation to oranges.

It's a strange analogy I admit, but maybe you can bring together your remaining brain cells together instead of going on a mindless insult rage again, ok?

Here's another "GM candidate", LMAO. This invalid is so RETARDED he can't get his rating over 1000 even though he proactively lives at a chess server!

You cannot pretend to be as DUMB as this loser is!

Some people just don't read what they don't want to read.

Too bad, really. Being so biased you don't even read the "enemies" writing and hopelessly convincing yourself you're right.

This lonely little fruit is obsessed with that guy or guys, lol. 

Talk about having NO LIFE!

LMAO

it's not difficult to remember someone who always checks these boxes:

 - homophobic insults

 - personal attacks on anyone sub 2300 based on intelligence

 - idolizes iq

 - claims anyone with a 2300 bullet rating or higher is inflated and is actually a 1500 player

 - always types "LMAO" in all caps, usually in a separate part of the sentence (i.e. after a period), always types "lol" after a comma or a period

 - talks about whining when nobody is complaining

 if I spent more than three minutes on this list I'm sure I can come up with more. You know, there's a reason why your past accounts have been banned. IF you wanted to come back, maybe you shouldn't talk exactly the same as before.

This wasn't a joke. You're the idiot who has no sense of humor because this isn't humor, it's stupidity. You're just as stupid as the OP that's why you can't understand any of this. 

LOL.

Why don't you just call your mom, you whining little fgggot!

It is ridiculous. I see, the guy behind this account has some complexes about IQ. Am I wrong?
