There are myriads of successful strategies. The financial industry attests to this in many ways.
So does the wealth of individuals and the wealth they contribute to the wellbeing of others.
One of the better tests of success is the record of how many times the initial starting capital has been removed form the market accounts. People, for a time, put money into the market accounts; at some point this stops. Mostly because more capital is not needed any longer.
So there are stages of success.
The first is having sufficient capitalization.
Second, is the event of having taken all the initial capital out of the market accounts.
Third, is having the comfort of only using profits for trading. This is more a mental success than simply a financial success.
Fourth, is losing track of how many times you have taken the initial capital out of market accounts.
Fifth, is moving into the realm of having others relate to you.
Sixth, is running accounts for others whose professional skills can be used to support community needs. You make money for them; they volunteer part time to help others in need.
Seventh, and not very important, is the sum and substance of the offers you receive to do OPM and what split they offer you.
Eighth, is the beginning of permanent success: how you were able to give to others the basis that yielded the first seven above. Transference.
Ninth, is how successful others are at transferring what they learned from you to others.
Tenth, is seeing over 25 or 50 years that for one reason or another your approach and its users have a positive effect on conditions, situations and circumstances of individuals and their communities.
Success is defined in millions and millions and millions of dollars not just making a buck in a personal account.
