Rio is only dangerous if you do not follow protocol. I do not recommend going into a favela without a local guide or walking around Copa at night.

If you are a drunk idiot and wander the streets at night you will have a problem.

Ipanema is perfectly safe @ night, and I still take a cab after dark.

However, I will disagree with you when it comes to the best women hailing from Brazil. Mamitas from Venezuela are just as sweet, ticas from Costa Rica can make you forget about that steak, Cuban girls will taste as good as Cohibas and Colombian putitas are surely good at ... well everything.

Life of the simple man is probably the best life.

"Simulate trade only" --> Demo trading doesn't put any money on your pocket. It's OK for testing strategies but you have to go live, otherwise you're wasting your time.

And trading IS actually a business, or at least you should see it that way. The beauty of trading is that if you're successful, you can make a nice $100.000-$200.000 per year income. As long as you don't blindly overspend to the point of using up nearly all the juice, you're free to take some days off and do whatever you were thinking about on doing.

PD: I've seen in another threads someone saying that there are jobs where they pay you $100.000 a year so trading for $100.000 a year would be a waste of time.
I'm Spanish, and here it's EXTREMELY rare to be paid that - in fact it's not common to be paid even HALF that. More likely $32.000-$40.000 a year, and in most jobs it's even less than $25.000 per year.
And if it comes to compare living expenses and so, a typical 90 square meter flat home sells for $200.000 - think of 30-40 year mortgages. Now go figure.
 
Why are you still here? The choice is clear:

A) Trading and Internet porns (and virus).
B) Everything you ever wanted (and virus).
C) Do a three year meditation retreat with Karma Kagyu lineage

You can only live once and die many times.

Start with $100 and prove yourself that you would not lose it; making some money is great.
 
You could learn how to trade but it takes time and it is not easy, however it can be done.

I have been selling options for the last few years, but my capital is much bigger than yours, if I can make 1% - 2% in one month I am very happy. It took me a while to get here and I still have ton of stuff to learn. Not advising you or anyone to sell options.

In short do what you love, if it is trading do the best you can to learn by commiting and dedicating yourself 100% to it.

Find a trading style that fits who you are, go for it and never look back. I am not saying you have to turn into a daytrader, ok.

There are several factors that are necessary to be succesful in trading, one of them is a capitalized account, and you got that one covered.

Never ever ever get married:

http://www.nomarriage.com/index.shtml
 
Actually I agree that you're too young to get married but not for the reasons that jagoff posted the link to nomarriage.com.
(That's the most disgusting thing I've ever seen.)

But marriage/relationships do distract you. If your goal is to make money, then wait to marry after you've reached a level you consider acceptable.
 
As a woman certainly you don't like the idea of men not marrying.
There is no reason for a man to sign a document to express his love for you other than the fact that that documents becames a contract fully supported by the law and the system we live in.

Among the other things that contract puts at great risk the man earning potential. If he does well you'll be entitled to 50% of what he makes. You see he could put $ 10.000 into the pot but if he makes the other $ 900.000, guess what ?

50% of 1 million will be yours, but to you that is certainly not disgusting, is it ?

And I don't even go into the other part of why marriage is so horrible for a man who got his things together.

Contrary to what we are taught, the idea of one person for the rest of your life, and again ONLY one person to have sex with till the day you die is totally unnatural. Most single healthy men like younger women. In general most men, are attracted to, and would like to be with., not just one, but many younger women. It might not be politically correct, but it is biologically correct.

Unfortunately today most hot women place their vagina in an Ebay auction-like for the highest bidder. It is best for a man do completely focus only on himself and keep all his money for himself so that every time he brings money to the table the women can bring their look. That way he can enjoy variety and leave the drama to others.

A man of $ubstance usually gets the hot women, while the poor man usually gets the fat and ugly women. It is just reality.
