It's unfortunate that I disagree with many of your theories as personally you are a likeable guy in a funny sort of way. Trading is fantastic! It drives your soul to exceed. When you or anyone get their shit together it pays very well.
Hello themickey, We don't see eye to eye because you was NOT born VERY poor and black in America and extra Poor. I don"t give a FUCK about making a living. I ONLY give a fuck about getting rich.
Errrrr, I may not be black but I grew up very poor. My father was an immigrant labourer in NZ with no trade qualifications, raising 5 children and with a stay at home wife.
Hello themickey, If you grew up poor, then why are you talking about trading of living and trading different markets? Trading to pay bills month to month is stupid.
Making a living or getting rich, both go hand in hand. The more you earn the better the standard of living. The more you earn, the more you can relax from stress of paying the bills. Just be careful though to keep sensible and don't go crazy over extending the spending.
A majority of people (don’t know exact %) whom inherit wealth lose it all within the first two years. This is a game of inches. Markets are too tight for you to “get lucky” unless you have inside info and you wouldn’t be chatting here. To you forum idiots banging MES as price takers… you’re f*cked. It is never going to happen. You’re going to have to find an edge in SN and carry overnight risk.
The battle for investment survival. You are never going to be successful. You're always going to be starving & vulnerable, Looking out for the next, seemingly, free lunches. If losing 50% is less likely than making 100%, You might be able to grow your money over time. All you can do is to avoid being a sucker.
Good Morning DarkerthanDarc, Yes trading is definitely higher priority over my family and woman. Yes trading is definitely higher priority over my health as well. I do not care if I die at 8 45am today clicking because of a heartache attack trading too much size. It was well worth an early death. I don't not care if my family or woman leave me. I will not lose any sleep. I can always find a new family and woman in a few weeks. However, recovering trading drawdown has to be done everyday or I will be poor forever. So that's all I care about in life at the moment.
