Are you trading for a living?

All from trading, and as a matter of fact the wife and I are looking to upgrade to a newer cardboard box soon. The grocery cart rolls pretty smooth too, got a newer one of those last week.:D :D :D

We just took delivery of one of those new all-plastic models with rounded corners - makes lugging the laundry down to the lake much easier :D

I know it all sounds far fetched, but I have absolutely no reason to lie. Why would I even have a day job if I make that much money trading? Well three reasons:

1) I get an additional $40,000 a year

2) I get the free office, free computer, and free T3 connection.

3) But perhaps the biggest reason is that I don't want to trade out of my own home and become a hermit. I like going to work, shooting the shit with other employees, etc. If I traded from home, I'd go absolutely crazy.

Hook me up for that job, I am sure several traders on ET wouldn't mind turning that IT Dept into a trading room! And if the company CEO come check on us, he'll see us busy pounding away on our keyboard thinking we are coding or something, probably give us a raise!

Well that explains it then - I always thought I might have a screw loose but I've been trading out of my house since 1995 and I probably don't even realize how nuts I've become.
