"Don't expect to make money for at least 6 months to 1 year."
well i dont have a dear ol daddy to bank roll me living in vegas for a year with no income.. so I'm out
does he have a real estate course that i see on late night infomercials??
sounds like a snake oil peddler to me... you can learn alot in the market losing that money... probably more than you can from taking notes at a seminar..
why not have him get a job and earn money for his spending rather than just handing it to him "since mom and dad have enough money"?
when he gets tired of real work.. perhaps he will be more enthused about trading? :D
