    I used to work on a construction job, 10 hours a day, for 50 dol. a MONTH. This is about 5 years ago.

    I see what you are saying, 50 bucks a month (left after the commissions).

    This wasn't in US, of course. Luckily it was tax-free.

    Why would you give that up? :confused: Most daytraders would kill for a net positive month.

    It's funny to think back, but wasn't fun at the time, putting metallic roofs, and cleaning out construction garbage.

    About daytraders not making much money lately - this job is so much fun, I would pay to do it.

  7. Just checked: I made $4800 in November. That's $3800 more than I need to survive. What more could I want? The only thing I would want to buy if I had more money would be an arsenal of sound-seeking missiles and permission to use them at my own discretion. But I'm afraid even the best trading won't be able to buy me that.

    I dream about getting to the point where I only need a grand to live. That would make life so much less stressful, and crappy months like this easier to take. Congrats Lobster.

    Not sure what or how many you're trading, but November was really average for the year for a short month. About 160 S&P points.

    Why do men struggle so????

    Happy Holidays
