I agree. I've learned patience will get you there faster. I also like that link. I had forgotten about that one. I especially agree with the 5th point. You need to work hard and pay your dues, like sitting at home on a Saturday night and studying while your friends are out having fun...

I feel like the dad who's kids won't stop arguing.

Stop bickering and play nice. Both of you. So there.

I thought it would be the San Fran defensive line which would destroy Rodgers. But Kaepernick surprised me. Good point about Houston losing momentum. Human nature makes me think they will snap back and play the way they did earlier in the year, but that rarely happens in the playoffs.

Stupid packers. :mad: Mav, your call of San Fran and Houston in the superbowl is becoming more and more real every day.

I went to music school in LA in the 80's. Then i got into a band and toured the Midwest. Then i went to college. Then i became a trader. I partied my ass off in LA. Then i partied my ass off in Wisconsin. Ouch. Now i can honestly say i haven't been to a bar in 6 months, even though...

Etuser, here is page 6 of a hall of fame thread where lescor shares some of his insights on this subject. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=147883&perpage=6&highlight=characteristics&pagenumber=6

If by 1.5/100 shares, you mean $1.50 per 100 shares traded, it's extremely high for the prop industry. Anything over a penny a share is absurd.

"For Real? Rex Ryan Sports Tattoo Of Woman Wearing Only Sanchez Jersey" http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2013/01/04/surprise-rex-ryan-has-tattoo-of-woman-wearing-only-sanchez-jersey/ We are talking about Rex Ryan, but I still don't think it's real.

Oops. Are you talking about coming in as a brand new trader with 100k and no experience?

I used to be one who would immediately call these people selfish. Not anymore. I keep telling myself i don't understand what would make someone do this. But maybe I'm just not supposed to. I have a friend who quietly attempted suicide when she was really messed up on drugs many years ago...

To do this. I just don't get it. To jump off of a bridge in front of your daughter. It's infuriating as well as sad. http://www.hudsonstarobserver.com/event/article/id/49341/

I would just add that adaptability to changing conditions is key. Automation is cool, but I think a lot of folks reading this have had API's die on them. It's nice to just sit back and watch the green numbers go up, but when market conditions change, or even the policies of your prop firm...

I dare you to go to your local McDonalds, look the teenage girl cashier in the eye, and order a McGangbang. I don't see it ending well.

This whole thing sounds just like Visalus to me. A meal replacement shake owned by Blyth. (BTH) I was convinced to go to a Visalus "meeting" at a local bar last January, and realized it was the same type of mlm crap. I decided to try 2 months worth of shakes just to see how I liked them, and...

It also depends on your style of trading. If you only trade during the most active hours, does it make sense to be in an office, or go back home during a two hour lunch break?

Mav, wanna put 20 bucks on the game? Offer expires at kickoff. No fair saying yes if the Bears are up by 10 in the 4th.

I assume that's not something you'd get at Men's Wearhouse. I'd be interested, as well. It's time I get myself a nice suit.

Illiterate Appalachian Apes, and squirrel bondage. Baron, thank you.
