you have a number of choices. , the reality is that private industry will not look kindlly at your resume unless therer is a big shortage of your particular skill. you can get a governemt job by taking an exam and your resume is not important. there are many businesses where capital is not a big barrier to entry. assess your skills and give it a shot. the internet has made building your own business much easier than in the past. lots of luck.
Mowery: here is some advice. You're a clutz. You step on everyone's toes with this 19 year old wise guy act of yours. You readily admit you started less than a year ago, yet your the first guy distilling advice to the uninitiated.
You as well, who insulted me VIA pm, to chime on this one too, yet I don't even know you, or want to know you, guess i got to block you as well, owell, no skin off my back. If it is wrong to give advice from a perspective of a newbie and share what I have gone through to other newbies, then fine, I don't deserve to be here, but I like helping others, so if you don't like my advice, you can go screw yourself for all I care, because I'm here to learn, and here to share my experience and help other newbies, WHAT ARE YOU HERE FOR? You insult me via PM, and now you are coming up here to post something completely off topic, you just contributed trash to the forum, congrats! I'm here to learn and to share my experience, so again, go get a life.
What kind of internet businesses? Like selling stuff on Ebay? Sounds interesting, but if things don't work out, I don't want to be back in this predicament again. I really need to build a meatier resume with real work! I suspect, like trading, an entrepreneurial internet business venture might be more damaging than beneficial on a resume when looking for work. Pretty much, zdreg. I have little interest in responding to persistently belligerent and unpleasant characters. They're always looking to pick fights or whatever. Don't feel like arguing with them, so it's good to just put them on ignore.
Well just answer my one question please? Why have you not acknoweledged ANY question to your trading style or why you blew up? Are you not able to answer this question? You now insult me as well, yet you still have not answerd the question from 2 other posters as well. I come here to learn from your mistakes, yet you not willing to explain, why is that, again something does not add up my friend. Oh, btw, I'm not here to argue, I ask a simple question, your refusal to answer, and then insult me tells me you did something very wrong in your trading that you are afraid to admit, I know this about you now.... I hope the rest of ET acknowledges this, as it is fairly common to search for others to share your pain or to get it out to make others feel sorry for one such person. But the fact you have not disclosed what method of trading you have done and your path to failure says that you fear telling the ET community, I asked you simple questions and you acknowledge none of them in previous pages, and then you say I'm asking to start a fight. You don't know me, I don't know you. I search for answers from others that lose in this game, you say you lost, but you offer nothing else. I ask simple questions, and I get complained about for my readiness to learn and my determination in trading, that is why so few make it in this game. I guess that is why I'm still alive in this game, I'm persistent and search for the answers and never sugar coat anything I say.
Would you answer that question at least? I'm here to learn, I don't accuse anyone of anything, and I will forgive the fact you did comment on me without knowing anything about me, but people have questions, I ask why you don't acknowledge anything anyone asks you about your trading style and what lead to your blow up. Am I an idiot for wanting to learn more for the reasons for your failure. If so, I'll accept it But I'm here to help myself and others, not get into arguments with people as you accuse me of. Are you taking anger out on me for your trading, just curious, no big deal if you are. I just want to know what lead to your blowup. I don't know about the rest of ET, but I personally feel you are hiding stuff from this whole experience and are afraid to tell us what lead to your blowup. If I'm wrong, then please explain how you did it, if I'm right, well at least acknowledge that and I will stop persistently trying to learn from your experience.
Would you acknowledge Ripley's question as well. I'm sure he would like to learn from your experience, as would all of us, that is all I'm interested in. Why are you not acknowledging any of these questions about your blow up.
I still think he's this guy: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&userid=8519 Not that it matters...
