I've met quite a few people from here. The non-pretenders are pretty consistent to their online personas. Like i bet you are like your online persona in real life.
Corney expression, but the best investment you can make is in yourself. Read a book or take one of the free online classes the exchanges or the firms offer. Books are free at the local public library or if you're near a business school find out when they're library is available to the public. The CME used to offer an all-day Volatility class for $10. The only reason they hit you for the $10 was to keep the homeless away from the refreshments.
I have a blog. I place a real trade each week online. I hope people are able to learn and if they want to look at 2nd or 3rd derivatives and further complexities, they can do that in their own time. Understanding options is best learned by real world examples, in real time. Call me a wanker if you like.
