Plan B

Discussion in 'Chit Chat' started by Aquarians, Jun 27, 2019.

  1. Speaking of A and Bs in school, what do you do when your plan of getting rich by trading as understood as gambling in the global financial markets casino fails?

    And not like after 1 or 2 years, but 12 in my case. Adding education on top of that I'm already 42, how much evidence do I need to gather that focusing solely on this ruthless zero-sum game isn't helping me in particular and probably none of us in general.

    So question is, what would you do as plan B, leveraging the level of education and life experience you got so far? I've got a few ideas which very well could top Facebook + Google + Amazon together (though very probably not all finance industry together, not on #1'st iteration anyways) but before disclosing them to you (in public, lol, right!), tell me some hints on your ideas.
     
  2. Lemme give you a few hints from my thoughts: it's the buy side that counts.

    #1 Buy side == the rich. Want that car? You buy it. Your kid falls ill? Best doctors / medicine / care for him. Which of the two jobs of selling cars or wiping the ass of sick kids you want? The doctor's one, of course!

    #2 Sell side = the imbeciles. 99% equivalent with "the poor" thus even more difficult to escape the inevitability once you're trapped at that level. It's always you by the way. You who expect things to function at your pathetic level as they do at the high-energy one. But you're 99 and they're just one. Only they PAY for things while you're always BEGGING for something. A job, to start with. Greatest achievement in the world, you got your daily meal. From this point on and I'm talking to both #1 and #2, you aren't #3.

    I know many sellsiders who retired in their thirties.
     
  4. newwurldmn I see I put you on ignore. In Soviet Russia this means you would have understood this joke:

    "What's the tallest building in Moscow?"
    "Lubyanka, you can see Siberia from it's basement".

    Thanks for your (ignored) comment.
