I know that I will be losing money, and like everything else in life you have to pay a hefty price to pursue your dream. If I go at it alone with my own saved up capital etc, I would hope that I would be successful in a year but I will prepare myself so that I could handle 2 or more years...

ElectricSavant, Where you telling me that I am exposing myself too much that I am making myself vulnerable ? or that, I sound so naive and stupid that you know my impatience is gonna lead me into utter self destruction?

Thanks ElectricSavant for your lengthy and extremely valuable post.

again... thank you funky for your post, I really appreciate it. I do understand that if I don't make any profits, that I will be losing money. But I want to get started now or within 6 months or so is because the market is about surge back up and I know that that chances for me to succeed...

thanks for your post proptr8r. I don't intend to fail, therefore I don't need a "quality job in the industry". Having a back up plan for me or for anyone else is an unintended tilt towards failure.

should I take the try to work for the Prop. Firm route? or the work at a minimum wage (or not much higher) place for a year or two and save ~50,000 (I know you would say its impossible, but it is possible for me to save that much on minimum wage in two years.) and get in the game? If I take...

Thanks for that link funky. I can't wait. :D

By the end of this year (2003), I will graduate from an undergraduate institution with an Economics degree. I know for 100%(nothing less or nothing more) that I want to be and that I will be a day trader forever. I have 0 experience in day trading, but I traded with Online Brokerage Houses...

(sorry, this is a n00b thread) I am not much of a mathematical person, but I want to be a day trader. So here is the dilemma, I have heard that Comp. Programming is important if I wanted to efficiently develop mechanical systems etc. So I want to take one or two computer science...

oh man, that was funny... :D

...out of the 3 will help me the best daytrader I can be, one day.... ( I only got room to fit in only one of the three below) 183 Game Theory in Economics (3). Topics in noncooperative and cooperative game theory are covered, along with a selection of applications to economics in areas...

You guys been real great to me, and I only have 2 more questions. (for now at least. :cool:

2 more questions. 1. Would the Bright Trading's Norfolk office or for that matter, any office at a smaller city when compared to NY, LA, Miami etc be smaller and lacking in training materials? 2. How would I go about establishing a Track Record to make it easier for a firm to hire me...

Wow. Norfolk is a nice city, its close to beaches. I never knew that.

Thats sounds real good. I def. will be checking it out. I am in the Triangle (Ral-Dur-Chapel Hill) and I don't think it is that long of a commute. I was either thinking about taking myself either to, NY (big city in east coast) or LA (big city in west coast) or Atlanta. But...

Sorry. I am an early bird. :D well, lets just say I don't need much sleep. :cool:

yeah guys.. Prop Firm seems like the best place to start. Although for me, I could easily make $30,000/yr doing odd jobs after taxes and expenses if I move back home after college and get 2 jobs. Work at Wal-Mart Supercenter and at Best Buy and pull out ~80 hour work weeks. I will be...

to the top, to make it easier for anyone else nice enough to give us noobs some Advice.

Oh god, I wish I could ask so many questions at once, but I can't. If I do the Prop. Firm route, I will just be graduated and I will have no significant amount of Capital at the beginning. (<$ 2000). Althought I will be doing the Prop. Firm route, do you think I should work some and get...
