His position is a bit abrasive and indeed she did not ask to be treated this way, but I think he's right in pointing out that the misogynistic stuff we saw here is consistent with a lot of the disrespectful misbehavior that has made the rest of the forum largely insufferable for anyone trying to get any serious trading advice here.
Very true, there is also a bizzare "cult mind" among these supposed independent traders. Voice a dissenting opinion and be harassed non stop in an attempt to Destroy the heretic. See the "surf report" threads for clear evidence of this. No wonder so few have all the $$ on wall street.
Anyone who takes the op's post seriously, EVEN IF IT IS LEGIT, probably spends most of their time trying to unwind the 4,755 scams they have been ripped off with in just the last year. PS Don't blame the ET readers . If someone stood in Times Square yelling 'I'm looking for a husband, anyone interested!!" , who would be the fool ?
Cynicism is deep here. I use to be very cynical but My business and life approved 1OX after adopting the idea that it is better to trust and be ripped off every once in a while than to live the life of a cynic never doing anything and being afraid.
I live my life doing a lot and getting a lot done and still am cynical and careful. I may miss out on some legit opportunities every now and then but prefer that over getting scammed and potentially lose it all. It's called "having learned one's life lessons". Try it out sometimes.
