here it is.... bit blurry, but you should be able to see the numbers.
i changed job mid year so have two W2's for last year.... figure includes base, bonus, options\stock.
let see your's then darkhorse.... expecting a full 7 figures given that the figures "would not be close" (unless your full of horses**t).
ehm, ok you win i only made $453 last year...
In actuality, I thought the challenge was referring to trading ability, and my hemisphere comment was referring to this, I couldn't give a squirt of piss what your take home pay is. I was speaking in terms of percentage of return TRADING an equity account over a given period of time. The terms of my challenge in response laid this out, or so I thought, if you go back and read how the thinking went again....
You can't trade, though, because of restrictions of some sort (or at least I gather that's what you said). Or maybe you can't show us what you trade, same difference. It was someone else's idea for you to flash your stub (no pun intended).
I still believe I will make more dough than you in absolute dollar for dollar sense over a given period of time, but that takes into account the fact that my paycheck expands geometrically as my number of investors increases. Some of these fellows want to see a two year track record rather than just six or twelve months, that kind of thing old chap, and so while I am not doing bad now, not bad at all, I will be doing a damn sight better- well more than a country mile better- a year from now. And it only gets better from there.
But I tell you what, my Uncle Jeb did make $455 this year, so if you want I can borrow his W2 and post it up as mine and go "nyea nyea nyea" if that would make u feel better
