    "I love numbers and psycology
    I love to not have a boss
    I love to make money without having to deal with people"

    I have an accounting practice myself for over 12yrs and your first 2 reasons is why I started my own practice, love numbers and did not like having a boss.

    But it is your last comment I agree with the most. This is why I have been trading part time and educating myself in the hope that I too can make money without having to deal with people.

    After 12yrs it becomes very draining and stressful dealing with clients and taking calls all day. God help me if I had to deal with office politics as well, like Starbust posted.

    I'd rather be lonely with some stress for 5 days trading, and have the rest of the week filled with quality time with family and friends.

    On another point Bionic, to make say $1,000 a day what sort of capital on average do you need and do you leverage say via CFD's.

    Thanks Thadius.
