Quote from chipmunk:
I hate it when people ask "what do you do for a living/work/etc" and i say
" I day trade..."
Why do many roll their eyes,;augh and say "oh that's risky. Why don't you get aproper job?" Some simply giggle....
Why is it? Some of these are my friends and family as well. :-(
Next time I am simply going to say "nothing"
In for a penny in for a pound. Tell them proudly that you are a gambler.

Wall Street has typically had disdain for the retail independent trader.
Another reason was the shootout of All-Tech offices by Mark O. Barton in 1999. Some may view you as a crazed lunatic fixing to go off the deep-end.
It is really none of their business, especially since most do not have a clue as to what is involved.
Private investor sounds better.
I saw a movie on hulu that sums up 50% of the human race, i.e., the male half.
In the movie, there is a secret society in a high school and they have this superstition about turning a white rose red.
This guy that they all dislike does it and they can't figure out, so they stuff his head down in a commode and nearly drowns him. He is so humiliated he commits suicide.
I've seen the same kind of shit all my life.
I think that a great number of men in this country are looking for someone that they can humiliate. Very few are looking to find something good in an individual.
Buying fancy cars and rolex watches won't change a god damn thing. You don't need to impress these people cause they are just no damn good.

Why? Because they are just a bunch of stupid sheep who don't know how to think for themselves. Don't waste time worrying about it, just keep taking their money.
