    Why do you want to be a trader?

    thank you guys, some really interesting thoughts throwing out there.. as for me, the money is nice but the best thing is not to have to answer to anybody, no boss/customer craps ... like someone said earlier, you eat what you earn .. ;) .. and eventhough this is a low cost of entry, low...
