Paul Tudor Jones

Quote from Maverick1:

What's impressive about the video is that he was only in his early thirties there, Borish was only 27. The only current example of young guys managing so much I can think of is John Arnold...

Agreed 100% Mav.

But don't forget about Monroe Trout, although I believe he is retired now. He was at Niederhoffer's NCZ Commodities as a newbie. Wonder if 'Surf was able to interview him too? :D

I used to play basketball with Monroe at a friend of mine's house in New Canaan, CT. Couldn't believe it when I read about him in Barron's just 4 short years later and managing $400 million dollars. He was only 28 at the time. Very well mannered and "even-keel" kind of guy; didn't show his emotions like PTJ.

An amazing success story.
Reportedly worth close to $1 billion.
Funded Rand Financial Services, a futures/options clearing and execution firm owned by the Bermuda-based Tewksbury Investment Fund.
 
Quote from EPrado:

You know how they could make this place 1000 times better? Charge a fee. Something small.....like 10 bucks a month. That would flush out all the idiots from here. Until then like you said, this place is mostly populated by wanna-be's who have never traded a share of stock/a contract in their life.

I guess from a business sense that it's all a numbers game to Baron. It's funny though because 99% of these knuckleheads who come on here with their garbage will never buy/subscribe to anything the paying sponsors offer.

Until then, ET will really continue to be a joke to those in the REAL trading world.

another niederhoffer trained success story.....

surf:) :D :)
 
in defense of et - in amongst the bickering you get to exchange texts with guys who were "market wizards" and other well known or large traders.

Then you have guys who traded with them. Were friends with them or interviewed them.

By the way if you read some of landis's posts you know he knows something about trading.

And if surf did not develop a crush on all the guys he interviewed you would probably see surf has a lot of connections and trading info.

ET is far from a waste. And while it did not happen because of my posts at ET...

I did once have my trading comments next to my contact info on another site. I got calls from multiple market wizards and I met some of the largest traders at the merc because of it.

The legitimate trading community is very small - if someone thinks you are serious and legit you never know who might contact you.

I'd pay it. Maybe even more. If you filter through the bullshit, it's well worth it. Cases in point: Optioncoach's journal (I feel old saying that), Weinstein's journal, Dustin's comments on the Price Action thread.. I could go on and on.

Ya gotta dig to find nuggets.

And I have no idea why Baron can't simply charge a nominal subscription fee per month. I guess he's more concerned about generating web "hits" rather than being merely a notch above a Yahoo Finance message board.

I've actually had a beer or two with Dustin because he lives "near" me. A most experienced and valuable trader and resource, for sure. We only scratched the surface in talking about the markets, but you can tell from his posts here on ET that he knows what he's talking about. We could use more people like him on here, for sure!

It's still up on YouTube right now but you better hurry. I have a feeling it will be gone soon there too.

I asked the guy who posted it at YouTube if it was legally posted and got a squishy answer. I would link to it if legal. That said, everyone here with a pulse should realize it comes down to if PTJ wants it out or doesn't mind. It is a great video. I have had it for years.
