Name our profession

lately I just tell people I'm a "speculator"

and when they look at me somewhat speachless I say .......yes, one of those "bad guys".

I really do, this not just BS

I use that one when i`m feeling like a highfalutin jackass.

Otherwise its just plain old "trader".

Ok, silly post, please bear with me :)

I've been working at home, developing and trading my own systems for a while now, possibly as most of us here at ET forums. But I still can't find a title for this "profession" that sounds as cool and as vague as possible. Ideally, if a friend would ask me what my job is, the answer should at the same time sound good and discourage further questioning!

SO, what are we?

cheers

Pedro,

I'm going to be brutally honest. Normally i would help someone with a problem, but in your case, i'm drawing a total blank

Just tell them the truth...

Tell them that you are an absolute cunt.


Hope this helps.


Dackster.

Tell your friends, you work at McDonald's. If they want to find out more about your system, just tell them "I'm the guy that ask Do You Want Fries with That!". They should be discouraged to ask further questions.

Better yet, tell them you work in insurance. (and if you trade options it isn't even a lie)

To make sure they won't ask any other questions, ask them: Do you have life insurance?
