    Bottled Water

    I'm on a well and the water is the best I've ever tasted. The county is talking about bringing a water line up to the other end of the road. I've tasted the county water and I wouldn't give it to a dog. On top of that, the water bills average 80 bucks per month. I will not be connecting. Of...

    Is 50,000$ Enough to set up a trading account to earn a full time living?

    You'll have to ask the OP. I don't know his/her situation and neither do you. Good day sir.

    Is 50,000$ Enough to set up a trading account to earn a full time living?

    So you are assuming he has more capital than he is putting in the trading account? He/She never mentioned that in the OP. It's all speculation at this point. All I am saying is if 50k is all the money the OP has it will be tough to live on nothing for a year.

    Is 50,000$ Enough to set up a trading account to earn a full time living?

    How is the OP going to live without withdrawals from the trading account? Sure, if He/She doesn't need to spend any money to live then the account could grow. Personally, I like to eat from time to time, sleep inside and have my health insurance in place.

    Is 50,000$ Enough to set up a trading account to earn a full time living?

    Remember there is no employer health insurance for an independent trader. Make sure you factor that into your monthly expenses. If you have never looked at the cost of "Affordable care act" policies you will be shocked. I was paying close to 900/mo with a 6K deductible before I found I could get...

    Is 50,000$ Enough to set up a trading account to earn a full time living?

    Must be a typo. He/She would have to make 60k from trading.

    Is 50,000$ Enough to set up a trading account to earn a full time living?

    If you have the experience you should already know if it's possible for you. Also, the definition of earning a full-time living is subjective. What do you need to make a year to live? With 50k you would have to make at least 100% per year for a mediocre living after taxes. If you do not employ...

    Rural England (Internet speed?)

    Look into Starlink if the local offerings aren't acceptable. Honestly, you should be more concerned with latency and reliability rather than up/down speeds.

    If I buy a stock in one account and short same stock in another account...

    Just hold investments like that in a Roth IRA. Personally, I don't mind paying taxes since it means I made a little money. :cool:

    Group health insurance for independent traders?

    I wish it wasn't true but the contamination has caused a lot of cancers. I think the health issues came about from drinking the water rather than showering. Luckily I believe most of my hydration came from beer back in those days. :D

    Group health insurance for independent traders?

    All that is required is that you served more than 30 days at Camp Lejeune. They had a well water contamination problem. Health Care Benefts: Veterans who served at Camp Lejeune for 30 days or more between 1953-1987 are eligible for Priority Group 6 access to VA health care. My neighbor (also a...

    Group health insurance for independent traders?

    Update; I was talking to a neighbor and he mentioned that I could get VA health insurance due to the fact I was stationed at Camp Lejeune for over 30 days back in 1982. I am now in the process of applying. This is due to the well water contamination issue.

    New computer ordered 6 weeks ago, still waiting

    Motherboards, CPU's and Memory seem to be readily available (had to replace a dead motherboard this week so I've been shopping) I suspect the GPU might be the problem. I was thinking about upgrading my GPU since I was upgrading but the high end cards are out of stock everywhere I looked and...

    What time frames do you check for intraday trading

    I use a 30-minute chart with a daily volume profile and a longer-term composite volume profile. A 1-minute footprint chart and a 5 range footprint chart. I also use the price ladder & time/sales. For my style of trading, I do not believe a daily or 5 minute chart would be useful.

    Anyone mining Ethereum from home?

    Not that I'm interested in mining but the mining rigs advertised on the link the OP provided are 3X more expensive than what the company that makes them asks for them.
