About financing for trading

[carsonsa]

I have no idea how good people here are at trading. But getting OPM is all about networking and sales skills. My track record isn't smooth enough to attract investors and frankly I don't have the pedigree to get me into a hedge fund position. I would absolutely like to have a 2/20 deal with some OPM though.

Yes, most of finance is the asset acquisition business not asset management. There are a few well well compensated traders but tons of well comp'd folks in sales/relationship side of the biz

Me too, until I started day trading intraday. Now I have bad dreams about losing my shirt day trading.

If that's the case, unfortunately, you know what the answer is to return to having good nights sleeping.

Get a new mattress. lol
