    Will people please stop ignoring other posters if they do not agree with them? Thanks! (I have a song for that, but I've been spamming the forum with enough of that stuff for a while, to make analogous points. Alas).

    I trade for UHNW which precludes managing more than one client for obv reasons (unless it's a group outside of a FO).

    He put me on ignore bc I pointed out that ALL of his FX fills were unable. He immediately started posting marketable fills, but again reverted to scamming.

    Right again.

    Making 20 to 40 millions a year with "management" fees alone, pffff... what a joke.

    No. Not a joke, a headache. Clients and Gubmint on your back.

    Enough money is sometimes ... enough.

    Bike ride time.

    I am capacity constrained on the work side and it's too much of a hassle for him to get an ISDA, but he would instantly be a force in any mkt he entered.

    10mm brokerage accounts opened last year alone... I have no clue where your stat came from.

    and now that jobs are reopening volumes are coming down.

    you do the correlation vs causation analysis yourself.

    anyone who knows anything about the industry knows there’s a big difference between earning 10mm PA and running a billion dollar fund. That’s like saying “if you are a good programmer, why didn’t you start Facebook”

  10. Actually, it IS "IB's business". They are required by regulation to "know your customer".
