...I agree -- I (or any good/skilled trader) can easily beat the market index average of 8%/per year, -- that's infact peanuts, or child's play,
I wouldn't say it's peanuts... I have to sit all day long staring at numbers and lines going up and down... Not for everyone... Sometimes I think I should get a job with a fixed salary... But then I take a few days of, play some golf... shrug my shoulders and think... meh, I do allright...
To be fair, they've said themselves it doesn't scale to the levels of AUM a typical fund manager is dealing with.
