307000 Euros=240000$ ??? Do you know we are not in october 2000 anymore ? :D

As an average trader , I bet you'll make near 0% less trading costs (spread, fees and so on...) , but this is only pure speculation :D

Well of course if you show me a way to earn (with no risk) more than the interests and fees paid to borrow the money , I'll try to borrow even billions if I can ... :D But my first intention was simply to find anything better than Tbonds or "retirement plan" :)
