Hate giving Baron likes. It looks like you're sucking up.
But that was a great post. Agree 100%.

Good and inspired post indeed. Just.a.note about the flower thing, women tend to wither like flowers. Many will look a far shade of what They used to after Getting kids and aging Even a single decade . StilL worth trying to keep them around for other reasons especially if You have kids. And for Sure money will help, it s Not a Sure Way to keep a relationship Going but divorce rates Are lower among wealthy folks.

Also no matter how strong u feel about women and withering, There is probably no need to share those thoughts with your other half...

That's true but there's no concrete rule that you must be married or that you must stay with the same woman forever. I tell guys this around me all the time. You can engineer your life to be whatever you want. For example, if you're a guy with good cash flow and want a steady girlfriend but want the maximum fun factor in your life, then you could get a girl who's 23 (usually the hottest she'll ever be in terms of age) and keep her around until she starts getting the urge for a baby, usually around 27 or 28. Then you bail out from that situation with a totally legitimate excuse (you not wanting kids, family, marriage, etc.) and rinse and repeat the whole process with another 23 year old.

Oh man, traders giving relationship advice.

What could go wrong there?

Hey everyone I need some life advice from experienced traders who have most likely gone through what I am going through.

I am currently going through a phase where all I care about is trading, I don't go out anymore, I am putting my great job (financial advisor at a big 5 bank In canada) at risk by putting paper work and boring client stuff aside to trade my personal account during market hours. I am a young guy 23, 6'2 and have no problem getting laid (my trick is just ask questions and when asked a question I always answer with a question, girls love talking...a little trick that works for me) however I am tired of these weekend affairs but I know that I will not be able to hold down a serious relationship as I would show no interest in a girl right now.

I am spending my days trading and my nights doing math and back testing while absorbing as much finance info as I can at the expense of family and friends.

Anyway I saw my friends for the first time in 2 months and I had to take a look at my life. I am very passionate about trading and I am sure some of you have gone through what I am going through. The ones that have wives and kids, how do you hold that down? Any advice would be insightful as if I do not fix this problem I will end up being a successful trader with no friends or family and that is something I know will bite me in the ass in the long run. I know there are no bunk beds in the graveyard and to make it in this world you have to sacrifice but maybe there are alternatives.....please try not to troll as this is a very serious topic for me and it feels like I am not myself anymore. Thanks.

No trolling here, but you're a useless bum. Wake up, clown! You said it yourself, moron, "I will end up being a successful trader with no friends or family and that is something I know will bite me in the ass in the long run" It will do far more than bite you in the ass - it will crack your spine, permanently, you dumb son of a bitch

Take a $2000/mo. job, dump the trading and keep the family and friends going bigtime, kiss them every damn day. This is a dual terminal universe made for a man/woman union and family (kids). Violate it in any way and you're shooting yourself in the foot at the starting gate. With ONLY money you got nothing! Its a trap. Don't fall for it. You're in the throes of self-destructive behavior, aka counter-postulates in full battle array. Reverse it now, clown!

Contact me after TRADING is not selling any alibis, as you stare into the vacuum of 666's eyes, he's taken away from you everything he could steal, where you've lost your direction home, you're scrounging for your next meal because you can't trade no more, you're a complete unknown, and then he lays it on you, "do you want to make a deal?" You're history pal

Women and the word balance never go together in any context.

MGTOW if you want balance.

Women if you want entertainment.

Well maybe the way to go is women WITH balance,

Another great video about a trader who talks about trading and personal life. Very insightful and very true.

the approach is completely wrong!

open your eyes - do you not see what is right in front of you.

this short term trading stuff, no chance... yes there was this 10000 hour rule... but that no longer applies. Human Go champions train for that many hours, only to be defeated by AlphaGo 100 games to 0... then Alpha Zero figured out chess from scratch, in 4 hours.

do you not see what is happening.

anyone in OP's position, should stick to the current job, accumulate as many shares of QQQ as possible, because every share's underlying is millions of smartest people working for you and bringing you the fruit of the next tech revolution.

Human effort is and will be becoming so unnecessary. (in the words of the #1 Go player, KeJie).
