I wish I would have gone into the military. This is really boring.

    FWIW being in the military is hardly "exciting" most of the time. It's another (potentially very demanding) job.

    "this is really boring."
    no need to worry.
    the market always take care of people suffering from an excess of hubris. it won't be in a good way.

    Not a rich white person problem. I mean no offense. I just feel like I'm not providing anything to society. I've wished i had gone into the military since I was pretty young. I just took a different path. I got into music, and then went to college, and then got into trading. I just feel empty sometimes. This has nothing to do with race.

    51 years old. Too old for military. I guess I'll deal boredom.

    This is also a great post. I am proud of myself. I have done one trade in one stock all week, and it was a small winner.

    I am coming off of an absolutely horrible year personally, and i want to make up for it with financial gain. Bad idea. I'll gradually get back to where I was.

    Then the only solutions for you is go to warm places to trade (sipping on a pina colada while sitting on a white sand beach trading...) and/or take up some or more hobbies outside of trading to occupy yourself.

    If you had a "absolutely horrible year", you shouldn't be bored, you should be working on a decent trade plan...oh and it's 68 degrees on Treasure Island Fla at the moment.
