Hope you dont get this wrong on your next test... Drinking is to trading as: a) Fire is to Hay b) christianity is to al-qaeda c) salt is to slug d) all of the above
Can you just imagine, Warren Buffett and is pal Charlie Munger, having a coupla shots before putting a $billion on the next one into the fold? Think clearly.
I look at drinking and trading like this. When I was in college, it took me 3-4 days to prepare for the Biology exams. Literally, studying and reviewing hours each night. Going to bed at a set time. My friend was able to do one night of studying and drinking and ace the exam. On the other hand, I came out with a C. My conclusion is that some people might be better at trading and investing with a couple of drinks. It depends on the individual. Would I trust a chronic drinker with investing my own personal cash? Would I hire them to manage an account of any type? Nope, no way. However, I do acknowledge the fact some drunk traders might be better at their job then some sober ones. . .
Who said anything about being drunk? I said ONE drink. I swear some of you are illiterate or choose to ignore the fact that we are talking about one drink here, not a 60 sec kegstand followed by a 5 funnel beer bong followed by a triple shot of JD. Seriously folks, reading comprehension skills are important. Its fine if you do not agree with what I am suggesting but at least lets all get on the same page here. ONE drink, thats it.
hey rookie, you might want to talk less and observe more. You stick out like a sore thumb with all you half assed opinions and ideas. Sorry, but dem da facts.
Hey, Stop picking on eagle488, you guys are sooooo harsh! Cocaine, I think it's a stupid ass idea, but it's your money, your trading, your life, do whatever the hell you want. You've gotten the weigh-in, nobody (seriously) thinks it's a good idea, but if you want to do it, then shutup and do it and stop arguing with people who think you're an idiot and a train wreck in the making. The other guy was right, this is a stupid ass thread. JJ edit: oh wait, it is the weekend, right?
