Quote from jmccain:
You guys are getting way too excited over 4% returns. When you take taxes and inflation into account you are losing money.
The stock market will give you 9% over the long term and since this IS EliteTrader.com I suggest that people that know what they're doing can easily make 18% swing trading, no stress.
Even more if you are swing trading Canadian Income Trusts, some of which will give you distributions in the 17% range. (Like someone suggested)

You do need $2,500, which in most cases would empty out your brokerage account here!
