How do you earn your money?
Do you work for "the man" or for yourself?

Hi, I was thinking about buying google shares a year ago, when it just went public... And you can't imagine yourself how much I regret now that I didn't Sad I could have trippled my money already. As for forex, I think they charge you too much, if you buy shares directly through a broker, he takes just 0.25%, how big are the comissions at forex?

There are no commission (per se) when you day trade forex. But there are spreads. Basicly everything is included in the trade, you don't pay nothing additionally, check it out here http://www.dantol.com/day_trading_currencies/

I do lose money sometimes,
but my average monthly return is about +17.5% now (steadily climbing for the past 6 months).

17.5% PER MONTH IS GOOD ENOUGH. Wink

I earn as an employee and as an investor/trader in the stock market in local and international markets. Hopefully I will be able to quit my regular job and become a fulltime investor in 2-3 years. So technically, I am working for "the man" and for myself Smile.

How much do you need to quit your job?  Reply with quote  

So, how much do you think you need to quit your regular job and become a full time investor?
Besides, there is always a possibily that you lose your money, what will you do then, without a job? But the idea is cool anyway Laughing

TheEasyMoney,

The answer is diversify in your investments while working for "the man". By doing so, you will be able to minimize risk as much as possible and always maintain an emergency fund for the rainy days. I am a high-risk investor and tend to focus much more on technical factors than the fundamental ones when trading or investing. It is my style and I feel comfortable with it. Each investor/trader has their own methodology ofcourse.

Personally, I will just trade using fake money until I can get a day job and get enough of a cash reserve that I can live off of for 6 months. All the money after that I'll use to invest in the forex and day trading. I'll be working for myself by 21.
