I have now paid my father back all the money he lent me. I have now also taken all my living/trading expenses besides the cost of my college out of my trading profits. What else is your gripe?

This is a ridiculous reason to pick on someone: inherited money. This sounds like jealousy. Wouldn't it be nice to have a rich sugar daddy (especially if he's genetically related to you) to set you up in a career of your own.
My problem is, I've seen of few of those dads with their very insecure sons, is whether Daddy is robbing Sonny of a real life elsewhere...outside of money making. But hey Praetorian2 is old enough to make his choices and dig his graves.
Naz you forget there's always Free Will.

Good point nitro. I should listen to what I say more and follow what I do less sometimes. I'm sure I'd dig myself less graves, or would that be shallower graves? Lets just say that I don't always follow my own rules. That's when I get into the most trouble.

As per my father, just for the record, he's not all that wealthy. Everything he has, he made for himself. He only gave me 30k in total to begin with anyway. Everything else I have I made for myself. I really doubt that 30k is that much for anyone to come by. Most people out there can take it out of a credit card if necessary.

Your money is defined as money that IS NOT provided by Daddy or any other source other than yourself, and making a living is living from your trading gains and not an allowance from said Daddy.
It's been awhile since I read his first interview, but I don't recall getting the hit that Harris is a trust fund baby. I think it would be harder to trade with parent's or family money than your own, I'd be scared sh_tless that I'd lose it. To much pressure.

The prefect companion book to Reminiscences is Richard Smitten's Jesse Livermore: World's Greatest Stock Trader. Livermore didn't commit suicide because he busted out. He shorted before the 1929 crash, and after that feat he couldn't find anything challenging about the stock market anymore. He didn't think he could top himself. And that was his whole life.

That's another book on my reading list. It moved up the list with my recent completion or Reminiscences of a Stock Operator... fascinating book. Helped me to better understand volume, actually.

I just finished the companion. It's worth a read, but too much of a repitiion of the first.
