Does a disciplined trader smoke weed (?)

If you smoke weed once a week, you are a pothead. You are highly unlikely to make money trading stocks in that condition. If you want to make money, I suggest you trade pot instead.
 
Hi, I've been trading for around 2 years now, doing well, growing, and seeing my path clearly, currently funded by tst and developing my own methods, I believe that a disciplined live leads to disciplined behavior and such, disciplined trading, that's why I try my best in life in every aspect, but, there is certain topics that gives me mind conflicts, such as smoking weed, I like it at the moment while doing it ( I only do it maximum of once a weed or twice just to relax or eat something) not a pothead, but most of the times I get kind of guilty feeling because I think that maybe I'm harming my brain so then my trading capacities (?) is this behind indisciplined (?) please, let me know your thoughts

Growing and smoking weed (cannabis, marijuana, reefer) is now legal in my country (Canada). Many strongly supported such and I was unsure.

Recently at the winter festival, I saw the bus driver of one of my kid's school bus smoking the biggest stogie (slang) I have ever seen with others doing the same.

The next time his bus pulls up in front of my house...I will now wonder if he smoked a big stogie before coming to work or if he's high at the moment when my kid gets off the bus. :(

Slightly different than the above, I once witness (with my own two eyes) a good trader have the most incredible blowup of his account when I lived in the U.S. He had smoked two joints the hour prior to work. He said it helps with his anxiety level but I had never seen him smoke a joint before prior to work until that first time but I did know he occassionaly smoked at least a joint on the weekends.

After the blowup...he then went outside, lay down on a bench and cried himself to sleep. A month later he moved back to Portugal..obviously he got off that bench.

If you drink wine once a week, you are a alcoholic. You are highly unlikely to make money trading stocks in that condition. If you want to make money, I suggest you trade wine instead.

LOL you need some Purple Kush old man!

Weed, not mixed with booze won't stunt your brains growth if your 25+, then it's not any worse for you than smoking normal cigarettes, which is pretty bad, but hey your life, who's to judge, only you!

( I personally, can't stand and don't do drugs but my life don't judge me )

Here in Canada they first said the law is 18 years of age. Now after making it legal...they are having 2nd thoughts and trying to change (amend) the law to 21 years of age because research showed the human brain is still developing by age 25 years of age.

Not sure why they settle on moving it up to 21 instead of 25 years of age. Yet, currently, the legal age is 18 years of age...maybe because you need to be 18 to buy cigarettes, alcohol, go join the military/handle a weapon to die for your country and a new pending law of 18 for esmoking.

Would you have thought the same if you'd seen him drinking a beer or a glass of wine at the winter festival?
I don't smoke weed and do drink, but I'm blown away by this idea that somehow someone who recreationally smoke dope is going to start smoking it before picking up school kids but someone who drinks is at somehow less risk of doing exactly the same thing! Especially given how many people I've encountered in my life actually attempting to do things like crew aircraft while still impaired by the previous nights drinking. If you're concerned about the one it makes no sense that you aren't equally if not more concerned about the other.

If he leaves his flashers on as he drives on down the street... you've got your answer.
This guy is right btw.

Ugh, "no like". I was dumb enough to buy and read this book. It's 13 dollars and an hour of my life that I will never get back. In short, it's 200 pages worth of pseudo-science and twisting the statistics (substituting federal for state statistics when discussing drug arrests, using correlation to imply causality and so on). The does not even have a reference/citations section, so he definitely has done his research.

PS. Have to give it to him, though, he picked the right topic to be controversial about in this day and age.
