2020 in % - how did you performed ?

Well no a) the Math's get stupid, need to start trading 1000 NQ's and beyond which just too scarey b) most of us have a 5K account and we might make 100%, but we are also spending the 5K profit I know I have, cause we are all dirt poor, so there is no account growth as such.

 

Hmnnn, having 20K placed aside, with a regular/low income job, one could get free, out of the statues quo in approx ~2 years.
Or using those funds for the first payment into a loan for the apartment (via bank) & then once it's ,,yours'', getting rid of that real estate & all in into the market with $50k/$100k.

With 100K acc,one has enough of space, to make 50% in a year like 2020, with eyes closed, then, reducing the living costs+living somewhere like in Thailand+capital keeps growing+beautiful girls all around,
if, one, main ,, if '' - one is certain about that which he is doing.

But most of the people will not make those sacrifices, at least for 5 years, in order to be your own boss forever.
Instead of doing, they will come with bunch of excuses.

Never too late to start tho.

 

Sadly, when I get ahead the car dies or the kid needs bailing out, so failing for the growth even to 30K where I could live off easily in the UK, will need more soon mind

Thailand and Beautiful girls sounds perfect especially at the moment, just stay away from the tall better looking ones cause yeah.

Been my own boss for 25years but shit always happens, always just scrape by

Got a new trading style/method, maybe this will be the year I get ahead, more of a surviving hour to hour deal this year!

 

Unless the wife was still putting out ( doubtful ), then I consider all of that to be a WIN!!

 

The issue is the assumption of 50% returns.

 

Down this year and I feel it's going to continue.

 

I guess 100.61% counts for that category but just barely so.

I think the question should be followed by polling the average over a much longer time frame though, as there's no point feeling unhappy with a one-off year, nor with a one-time outperformance in decades. FWIW.

59% CAGR over 21 years and clueless if this is year is going to end at +50% or -50% in all honesty...

drftr

 

If you compound 59% starting from 10,000 for 21 years. That would be 169 million. Wow.

 

The man has a cool story tho.

Starts dropping %, then moves into ,,how things should be done''(nothing perceived as personal) and in the end drops another % bomb & signature.(signature is a must if you're an important person)

,, 21 years ''

Yes.
21 y.o with ego.
