<<I think dreams and determination are what drive us to success. It takes committment and a willingness to work hard to make our dreams a reality.

Thanks for that viewpoint... your right...

I dont know many people our/my age willing to sit on the computer 3-5 hrs a night trying to absorb all this information and plot strategies and charts. My friends dont even realize how much I put into it... they just know "im into stocks".
It is a big committment and a big drive to succeed. Also it can be very stressful.

Its a big time investment, but it will have its payoff. (already has) A lot of things have to be given up (social life has dropped off big time in past 3 months) but hey can get that back later right :)

The way I think about it... is I could have a 2nd job that pays me .. well peanuts... or I could do this for say 25 hours a week, and really profit. Only problem is these late nights.. going to bed 2-3 AM, and waking up at 7 AM. Trying to work on that! Not healthy.

That is another benefit of just going at this as a full time gig; could do research between then 10:30-11:30 & 1:30-3:00 quiet times in the market, leaving more time at night for a real life :) Steve, stop making it so tempting to just quit job #1.. lol.
