    Why Did Bright Close It's Dallas Office?

    Pizza Dinner? Mr. Bright is a good guy. Just a business man who's offering a service. There will always be a better priced deal somewhere. It's all about convenience. I'm saving up some money. My prop shop will have lazy boy recliners in it for all traders. You can't get more posh...

    Why Did Bright Close It's Dallas Office?

    So you traded at around 5 props in Dallas and now they are all gone? What did you do to them!! :) Seriously though, what would it take for you to show up in an office? How about your own fridge and bathroom just like home? Maybe we'll bring the wife in every hour to yell at you? :)...

    Why Did Bright Close It's Dallas Office?

    Are any of those offices still open? Wouldn't you say that the construction has cleared up considerably since then at all of those locations? If that was an issue, it's definitely not as bad. :)

    Series 7

    Ha. I made that post up to scare you. Seriously though, I passed on my first shot. Studied 3 weeks but did go to a 2 day course. All through STC. Scored mid 80s. I bought the audio CDs but never used them. Complete waste of time and very boring. The trick to passing is to ace all the...

    Is perfect credit required for props?

    When ever you apply to work at most financial firms they check your credit which may impact their decision in hiring you. Do prop shops, because of the higher leverage, check your credit as well? And is perfect credit required?
