To each his/her own.
You sound as though you have a good game plan for being
a successful trader and investment advisor...kudos to you!
From what I see, I certainly do wish I had the type of
access to information that you do.
Also, I don't remember losing a lot of money in the Spring.
What I said was that when I started out, I lost a lot of
money, but that was quite a while ago. My offer to you to
manage funds was not due to losing any money at all. The
fact that you are in college WAS, in fact, the reason I
retracted the offer, as my clients would not be very keen
on the idea...I explained this to you before through
private e-mail.
With regards to experience, I know people how have been trading
for longer than I have been alive, and they are certainly no
better at it than I am...so experience is not measured by time.
As for being an *sshole, I'll let the others here decide who
is just that and who is not. From what I can tell, you seem to
want to start a fight with everyone you talk to...this might
not be the best way to create long-term relationships, especially
in the investment advisory business. A lot of potential clients
are principled individuals, such that on an "ethical" basis, they
simply won't hire a money manager if that person turns out to be
rude and arrogant, even if he/she is making them 50%+ per year...
...it sounds funny, doesn't it, since people want to make money,
but it's true. I have a client who went with me just because I
actually returned his calls (of course the performance was
competitive)...but the deciding factor was that I would take the
time to talk to him of the phone, rather than brushing him off.
Oh...you can't be friends with everyone, but the fewer enemies the
better, don't you think? I'm sure a lot of people in this world
think I'm an *sshole, for whatever reason, but at least I know
I haven't gone through life actually TRYING to make people think
I'm an *sshole.
