Had a really great time for a couple of weeks then got busted. Had to give it all back plus some stupid fines. With time off for good behavior did 5 yrs.
Maybe will buy some car at last. I know it's usually against smart money management, but hey it's $1 mil if I'll have it. Rest I put on fix deposit accounts, I want some stability as well and maybe will invest in some other areas beside forex. I already own a home and happy with it.
This is definitely the feel-good trading read of the summer this year, don't know how I missed it 3 years ago. I just wish Baron would stop punching us all in the face and smiling about it.
Wow great story, i got to say the mission of higher calling is fulfilled, the people i find here i can not find anywhere else even with the social networks out there now being so big, no such trading quality (and comedy) can be found else where. Nothing stood out more though than the joke of Elite Trailer, i literally laughed for hours, it reminded me of my days in sales where my coworkers were basically like your roommates, jokes of any one saying "i am a closer" would be followed with you added an extra C in there, or "i sold so much i am balling" quickly is responded with "its more like your fallin" and if someone ever caught and they forgot to zip up their zipper, quickly the mocking becomes "how can you claim your a closer if you cant even close your own zipper," hahaha, i got to say these jokes probably only stem from people that are your coworkers or roommates. Baron has the site become what you wanted it to be over the past 20 years, from your point of view? I also wondered why is it considering its been around longer than fb twtr and ing in terms of growth that made others surpass, is it because this is for traders strictly? if you dont want to answer i will understand
Damn i was saying the same thing and wondering how i didn't see this thread before not only because Baron is in it but also because its truly got the best stories ever. I think their ought to be a similar thread with perhaps lower amounts to include other fun stories, or perhaps a thread with "what you would do with your first 100k, 250k,....."
Unfortunately you can't do much with 100K than to compound much more. But I'd still buy myself an ice cream for the occasion.
lol dude, if you come across $100K we'll be flying in hovercars and all communication will be via telepathy.
