I happened to do it backwards. I got married halfway through my working career (at 26yo). Sometimes I wish I had continued to balance things with work and investing. I have to look back now and see the non investing stuff that I did like teaching and writing not too imporant for income, etc...

thanks so much. The timeframe for making money is dictated to us by the markets. O'Neil prefers to do the IT thing. Meaning intermediate term. the cup and handle is the key thing he likes. It fits into the stages of the life of a corporation. what I do is perceive that the compound...

Super comments and observations

We are getting down here and the results are going to be terrific for you. Let me be brutal and well as extremely supportive in a brief and direct manner. Build a triangle of: A quality universe; a scoring technique to be timely; and a rotation of threads of capital to appreciate capital...

Well i can see I overshoot the target with moderators and Don (not an alais). as one of the few people who uses his name here, It is really humous to see how don gets trapped by anonomous fluff and doesn't give the time of day to a person making a proactive and creative comment. what a load!!!

Oh an after thought. Girls are best at this stuff.........

you are going to have a blast. The O'Neil book is "How to Make Money in Stocks" Read chapters 1 through 7 for the first few days. Then set up Stocktables.com for him to do the sorts on CANSLIM. Today's protfolios can be run on clearstation.com quite nicely. To have a nice reference...

Good observation. Most of these nay sayers should read Rich Dad, Poor Dad to get an adult orientation to replace their Poor Dad childhoods. Let your wife comment on their posts for laughs.

After 11 is a good age. You can either use a discovery process or if you are successful you can just mentor using your method. Sixth formers are perfectly capable of running their own accounts. One phenomena of learning to trade in a formal educational setting is that the students and...

I use a matrix where the cells are various patterns in part. The rows are ID'ed with names of the fractals I use to describe bar durations. The columns have descriptors of various kinds of groups of market conditions (pace mostly) It's net to see it operate.

Hey the President speaks at 8pm est. You may turn out to be clairvoyant. the Pres certainly isn't; he's suggesting vacations for Saddam (I think the Azores is perfect for Bushy).

What do you think was really neat and helpful that was contributed in the session? Is there anything about this item that you can suggest to make it better?

Neat contribution. are you saying we all have to stop using aliases? are you saying that your professional stature and accomplishments is the level you require of others for you to chat and exchange thoughts? I'm not being argumentative, in my opinion. Could you outline what it is...

Thanks for the reply. Do take the trouble to get those 12 charts I made. Tomorrow is just the first day of the rest of our lives. We can start there. You actually are at a very good place and I am here too. We can nail this down tomorrow. Look over my posts. I am making a best...

This is a poor situation. I don't mean the gee whiz type graph. You need to get back to the drafting boards.

A neat format to use is voice and a person making a log. The person(s) voicing can inject NB's to the logger as well. It works especially well during market hours if all the participants are following the same market in real time. The fact that 78 folks were there simply means that yo...

When I got out of college I took 300 bucks and mailed it to a broker. Then I kicked in some left overs from my pay check. since it was 1957, I had to do my charts in pencil on a graph I made and use data from the last page of the WSJ. At work I called in an order once a day. By 1960 when I...

I wasn't clear I meant do some analysis and then do investing during the day based upon the evening's work. I did not mean to do any after market trading. I am thinking along the lines of us here getting out our business calculators and plotting some income streams to find out how it might...

Could this be made into a two part question? The other part would be what can you do with 2000 bucks and brains and just do it evenings after market close. Skip the 30K trip.

Seriously there is one outstanding item you need to deal with. I think it will change your performance more than any other beginner item. Learn to do wash trades when you get in and it isn't following your intentions. so incrdible to see that you didn't do a wash trade.
