re: what is lazy about trading...
From one who had a job one day, and not the next:
Your comments ... It is far easier to go 'back to a real job' and let some other poor bugger work out how to pay you
I have to agree there, Alpha, it would be easier if you could actually get one except when you are retrenched at a certain age, it is not so easy to get 'a real job'. So now I try to make money on the stockmarket....I have never worked so hard and put in so many hours for so little money.
Hopefully, when I am more experienced (and the current market conditions improve), I will be rewarded...if nothing else, my mind is being kept active!...for which I have to thank many HC members for their knowledgeable input and a lot of reading (sometimes to the point of overload)
