I'll be 49 in a week. While I may never really succeed at this trading stuff, it's still been the most intellectual stimulation I've had in 20 years. I really do like it and find it interesting.
I feel the same way steve. Its the greatest hobby in the world. I only risk a small portion of my income on it and I consider it money well spent and who knows, one day it may work out.
44... that makes two of us, nitro. I am older now I have more than what I wanted But I wished that I had started Long before I did Crosby, Stills and Nash "Wasted on the Way" (1982) My life is trading and trading is my life. It brings you closer to your psyche than anything else I know. Nowhere else is winning so close to losing and losing so close to winning. Marc Steindl The traders spend their day in that eerie, perfect state the rest of us achieve only sometimes when we're playing sports, having sex, gambling, or driving fast. Think of traders as doing all those things at once, minus perhaps the sex. P.J. O'Rourke (What d'ya mean "perhaps"?)
Walk, hell. I'm in the best shape of my life right now and better shape than 95% of the kids today who're mostly lounging on the couch watching "Reno 911" and eating bags of chips.
