So the old "Can I trade full time for a living" topic has reappeared.

Simple answer, NO, NO, NO.

Would you work a job without having income protection in place?

Most don't, but should, as you never know what can and may happen.

Even involuntary redundancy ?

So if you are a FULL time trader, what income protection do you have?

A $100 thou in the bank? Not likely, as you'll incest it some where, ( no typos here! ).

I live off the pension, small, but constant income. Pays the bills, food, power and gas.

Trading gets me a boat, a new fishing rod, new wheels, tyres, engine and clutch

for my ute. New camera lenses, or whatever else I feel like "splurging" on.

Maybe .5 of a % of traders make a living, but the rest ....................................???????
