3. You’ve heard of it… Maybe wondered about
it… But never really investigated it. Well
here’s your chance to see a few of the
things that make this the best business in
the world. It’s a business that speaks for
itself... well... So we decided to let it do
that. Each slide that follows names and/or
details some aspect of short-term trading
and why it's unequivocally The Best
Business in the World.
Enjoy.
5. No build out, headquarters/committee
approval, no licensing fees, no real estate
acquisition, no staff recruiting, no
inventory buildup...Fast and easy to get
set up… Even easier to grow.
7. Minimal... You can start pursuing some
medium to longer term trading
strategies with as little as $1,000 (yes,
you can buy 1 share of Google)... Do
not underestimate what the ability to
limit your initial investment means...
What if trading really isn't for you?
9. None... No obsolescence, no 5-finger
discounts, no vendor fraud, no recalls,
no quality issues. It's possible to set
this business up virtually overnight.
11. You are her/him and him/her is you...
You can trade a $5,000,000 account
with the exact same number of
employees it takes to trade a $5,000
account... One.
13. As a trader, YOU are the client... You
don't spend your days responding to
customer issues... vendors respond to
you. Further, in other businesses, you
spend most of your time trying to be
chosen… by an employer… by
customers… by everyone. As a
professional trader, that is no longer
the case… You no longer have to worry
about being chosen.
15. Minimal... If you're doing it correctly,
your account grows organically...and
exponentially. No additional
investment needed. Compare that to
your forced savings account... also
known as your 401K. Keep you
computer hardware up to date and in
good working order… keep good
records... and... that's it.
17. Most businesses grow by increasing
their footprint... product expansion,
geographic expansion, and/or both.
As a trader you achieve the same
result not by investing ever larger
sums in more people, plant and
equipment, but by simply adding
shares/contracts as your account
grows. This is both the “secret sauce”
and your opportunity.
19. Working in corporate America, starting
a business, or buying a franchise are
usually "All In" propositions... Each
requires you to commit all of your
time, effort and capital from the
beginning. Trading allows you to
proceed incrementally. To learn… to
test… to validate. This reduces the
overall risk of the endeavor
substantially.
21. Profit in up and down markets alike...
Instead of economic slowdowns
speeding your heart rate as you
wonder how it will affect your bonus
and retirement accounts, you can
treat economic roller coasters as the
opportunities they actually represent.
23. Answer to no one, but yourself and the
market... Give up the credit hogging
boss/colleagues... No whining
customers. No passing the buck. No
face time. No Bullshit.
25. Live and/or travel to wherever you
like... If you have a computer and
internet connectivity (wired for day
trading), you can trade. Where will
you go? Visit/escape your children...
travel the world, work on your Bucket
List... work on a second Bucket List.
Your options are only limited by your
imagination.
29. No more exhortations to network…
become more of an extrovert… to
become a “people person…” to
change. You can earn a good living
AND control/limit your interactions
with others.
