Thanks Dino. Anyone else?

Well, apparently you do. :)

I've been searching the web for salary figures for Futures/Commodity Brokers and just about everything I come across is for stock brokers. If anyone here has or currently works for a full-service FCM, what can someone expect starting out? I realize that commission is difficult to estimate but...

Mandelbrot you got put in your place on that one. It's about time. Now let the flame wars begin. Post a bunch of silly pictures and make up some stupid names to call him since that's pretty much the extent of your contribution around here.

HAHAHAHAHAHA Oh my god. BAD LENDING PRACTICES!!!! That's fucking priceless. I wish I had that kind of nerve. To blame other people for my bad choices. What a blissful existance it would be. Everytime I screwed up, instead of dealing with the consequences and learning from my mistakes I could...
