GeneM ; This is probably a stupid question. But, what are the drawbacks, besides the obvious (limited drawdown/limited choices or quantity of stocks due to capital) if one doesn't have 150 k?

I am a serious, dedicated newcomer (relatively speaking) to the investment arena. But, I would like to- trade full-time some day . . . remotely, from home. I am self-employed for over 23 years, now. And understand dedication, capital (cash flow), risk in business ventures, etc. But, I am wondering if I can gradually ease into this, on a part-time basis, carefully scalping/trading a couple days a week with say, 50k. And, graduate , in time, to your respective level.

I assume that you are the exception. You have seen both sides of the fence: you worked with small capital (15k) and survived . . . and you have , now, worked with 10 times that sum.

How do you compare your "style" then and now . Did you have to trade/act/think quite a bit differently? Or is most of your style change (if any) due to experience you gained. I admire you success, and appreciate your posts and the sharing of your valued insights. Jaytee
