"Be all you can be"... for somebody it's being a marine , for somebody it is being a trader. Besides, I always hated to work for somebody, I somehow felt that there are only two possible roles for me there: either to work as a clown for the idiots, or as the idiot for the clowns... I like challenges. Trading is great a challenge.... like mountaineering or sailing solo around the world. I always (do not know why) felt up to it . Money?... lol there are many many ways in the world to make money much easier than in trading, with much higher chances of survival ability and success (one just have to agree to be the idiot or the clown)
I like shoes too...d08, I've always wanted a pair of fancy alligator oxford shoes or boots made by some posh, elite, exclusive European label -- but I've always been too cheap, The most expensive pair of shoes I own costs me around $150; The idea of shelling out over a $1,000+ kind of boggles my mind. There are even some shoes that costs nearly $20,000 too.
Why Do You Trade? Discussion in 'Trading' started by Jdesey, Yesterday at 6:08 PM. To make money??!!! What kind of question is that??!! Is there another hidden meaning in the question that I missed??!! LOL
I'm a common man, I like Onitsukas. I figure they are the most comfortable shoes I can ever have, they also look good, last for a decade in daily use and are affordable. I suppose they're the modern version of moccasins. Their philosophy seems to be similar to Porsche - don't re-design things for the sake of being trendy. Nike, Adidas, Puma are all completely opposite, shoving "new" plastic crap out there every year without any testing. The most exclusive thing I have is a model only available in Japan ordered straight from their main warehouse in Kobe.
They stopped making the "tai chi" which was a great shoe for martial arts. Bruce Lee wore yellow ones in several films and Tarantino reprised them in the Kill Bill series.
