I'm trading stocks for over 10 years, I'm trading on ebay successfully for 4 years. Don't get me wrong. I was in debt 4 years ago, started 18k job and climbed since then increasing salary by 50-100% every time I was making a change. I consider myself quite successful already so when somebody is telling me I'm an idiot or treat me like it, I don't think he's right. Well I didn't win nobel prize, but I'm doing all right, and picking my battles well.

    So the real risk is that I will constantly fail at investments, or get addicted to them by repeatedly making mistakes etc. But hey , that's what business is, you risk. At least in 20 years time I won't say "dang I should have tried and take my chances on this or that" because I'm taking my chances now. If I'll fail , I'll milk contracting while it lasts.

    so when somebody is telling me I'm not thinking things through, I don't think he's right and will ignore all the valuable advice being given.
    As I said, nothing wrong with trying anything, its the lack of planning, realistic assessment of risk and responsibilities that gets me.

    I must say the amount of arrogance you display is quite staggering

        Still waiting to find out why the target of £1million (or is it € or $ or Turkish Lira). And how do you define when you've reached it.
