Hello LionsWarthogsMillions, I do not care what Bruce Lee and Michael Jordan call themselves. I call myself an ES Futures Market Master, because that is what I choose to call myself for mastering the ES futures market trading day to day. It is not business what any other man or woman choose to call themselves.
Society will always be Complaining about Something. It's either that, or they're eating or fucking or sleeping. Basic intolerant creatures. HFT is miniscule in the greater, wider, picture of trading. It's like complaining about a Toll Booth.
I agree. Sounds like a well educated, probably highly paid successful individual who is bored and makes outrageous statements on ET for entertainment purposes. A Troll in some ways, but a friendly clever mischievious troll.
Not sure how much it helps,unless you count making me smile helping.. Whatever happened with your second interview at Goldman?? Feel free to entertain me
Me like. However it's a double edge sword. Years ago I worked on a chair design project, except I knew nothing about furniture or design. Luckily I was unemployed with plenty of time in my head and with delirious bursts of creative energy, that later I recognized as signs of desperation. I spent nearly 12 months reading about chairs and design for context, and about the materials I wanted to use, wood, leather and stainless steel, for practicality. I was entirely absorbed and determined by the endeavor. I clearly knew what this chair ought to look like yet I was open to others expertise to guide me. I was very surprised by the negativity I received from a relatively known design architect who dismissed it on all accounts, design and materials. It was brutal enough for me to question all of it. Persistence and determination are imperative to move ideas forward, but was I just blindly stubborn? This was the hardest dilemma I had to face. Believing in oneself while recognizing one's limitations is a tough edge to be on. A prototype of that chair was eventually made nearly 2 years later, a long winded adventure that took me to Hong Kong and China and the Tablelands of Australia. Ultimately the project had to be abandoned, too expensive for production. That's why Musk's "prototyping is easy, production is hard" resonates so well with me. It's been 25 years and I now could revive this adventure and finance its production, although my wife would probably divorce me over it. I have this expensive prototype at home, a cathartic reminder of a bygone era. It's on my kid's inheritance list.
