Back again for another quick comment. I really expected to get skewered for my last post, and am surprised by the silence.

The primary reason for the post was and is to point out the need, by most people, to make something. Not necessarily money, a physical thing or the development of something.

I am, unfortunately, only aware of 1 person in my "social group" that actually trades full time. She trades all day while her kids are in school. She has confided, when I asked, that she "Doesn't know what she will do when the kids are older and she isn't `needed' anymore".

While she makes a good living trading, she discounts that when discussing what she "does".

From what I've read, I believe a significant part of the drop out rate for traders in the first year is the lack of fulfillment, possibly compounded by a lack of capital.
