Trading May Not Be For Me

Quote from TradeOff:

Trading may not be for me. I mean, what am I gunna do, trade forex all nght and write jokes here for the next 20 years?

What kind of a career is that?

I was in the structural engineering industry before 9/11 hit then my company vaporized as the result of the economic impact on California.

So.... for a year I kicked different things around for a new career, car sales? Realtor? Insurance sales (give me the barf bag).

At one point I went after my passion which is comedy writing and was set to become a stand-up comedian I even started performing around L.A. - bitch about that is, you don't make a nickel for years and years until you get "good."

Anyway, I had some money and one thing led to the next, here I am after 5 months still trading currencies.

What got you into trading? Or, why do you want to be a trader? What did you do before?
