Easy to find a job in nyc ?

Quote from Kicking:

get real
you first need to get a visa. Usually green cards are not granted for independent traders at prop shops . At real prop firms with salary, you need to be a highly qualified individual whose skills can not be found among US applicants. Secondly, NYC cost of living is extremely high. Even if you are a good trader if you trade at a prop shop which are just regular brokerages offering leverage its' going to be very tough financially at least in the first couple of years. And frankly the future of this business is not in equity trading at a prop shop.

Where is the future in trading then? Inquiring minds want to know! :)
 
Quote from Frenchy:

I wonder if it s easy for a self made men, or is it better to have the series 7 ?? (by the way is series 7 very hard ??)

I m currently learning trading....and american, and i want to be ready in 4 years....surely i m dreamin but why not:confused:

Thanks :)

In four years?! What do you plan to do in the meantime? If you have a dream why are you putting it off for so long?
 
mschey, so i have taken your input on treating your trading like a business (for serious and thanks), yet i keep coming back to the point that it is in the best interest of my business to put out a "hostile" takeover bid .... for your business. how about it? LOL.

This guy has spent too much time in the southwest US. If you are from France you get to come here for 90 days for business or pleasure and you dont need a visa. There are 28 countries on the VISA waiver program and france is one of them. Also because you are from europe you wont have as much trouble getting a green card as say someone from mexico. But if you did you can buy "chuecos" also known as a FAKE green card for $250 at any mexican swap meet. But why do you want to go to new york. You live closer to London and can learn pretty much the same stuff and you can be closer to your home. In fact i heard that next year or something that there is going to be 1 test for series 7 that can be used in USA or Europe. Plus England is better because the pound is twice as valuable as the dollar :)
 
I love nyc....in London there is no opportunities for guys like me, they only watch what school are you from....
If someone have series7 can you told me how long time do you study (every day....during ??)
Then is it hard to find a sponsor ??

Thanksss

Pretty easy to find a sponsor. Use the STC training materials with the CD as they are the best and everyone will tell you they are the best (also the most expensive) Expect to study for at least 100 hours. 4 hours a day for 30 days and you should be good to go. :) Unless you plan on taking the bar exam, this will probably be the hardest test you ever take.

Another American who thinks moving to the US is a piece of cake "Oh you are French? then it's easy to get a Green Card" so funny!
Your only chance is marriage or the lottery, anything else you will need either an impressive resume and lots of luck to be hired by a US company or then big bucks and a solid business plan to start your own business. Forget marriage. You are left with the lottery
