It's funny ya know...All this time I thought that American culture was so depraved with all of our Deepak Chopra, Tony Robbins and late night infomercials catered to taking the proverbial "sheep" to the cleaners...
Maybe, our insanity is spreading across the ocean...or Sabeena, do you have a satellite dish, and have you been watching too much late night American tv?...
You can talk all you want, but until you actually have the trade on the line, that is all that counts...
Let's see... In America you probably gross 15000 in 6 months, income tax on that would be somewhere around 1000, living expenses 4000, so roughly half a year if you work hard.
In Europe you probably gross 20000 in 12 months, income tax on that would be approximately 10000, social security, mandatory pension insurance and that kind of bullshit another 5000, living expenses probably 4000 per year, so you should be fine after 10 years or so.
you're not sure that you can get decent fills on 100 contracts on the electronic exchange, but your goal is to start a huge hedge fund. How are you going to actually use the capital in your hedge fund when you don't think the market is liquid enough for 100 contracts?
I'm not trying to discourage you... I just don't understand the hedge fund part...
