Couple questions: 1). Do you think you will find a suitable mentor on ET? 2). Why should a "real*" trader spend time mentoring you vs. trading (other than altruism)? * real being defined as one who feeds his/her family and/or multiple families based on the funds extracted from the...

I stated trading 1 lots of Jose Canseco and Mark McGuire cards back in '87. I work my way up and by age 8 I was slanggin' 100 lots of TOPPS, Fleer, Leaf, you name it I traded it. Unfortunately I got caught in the great baseball card bubble in the early 90's and now all I've got to show for it...
