Keith, Chemda, and guests inspired me to chase my dream

bithead · 03-20-2011, 07:08 PM

Since 2005, I've listened to Keith, Chemda, and their guests exude passion for "doing their art", often suffering through financial and other strife in order to do what they love. They inspired me to chase my dream...

In January 2010, I came to the realization that working for an employer in the I.T. field was getting in the way of my true passion – trading the stock market. So I began one of the most comprehensive, complicated, and exciting research assignments that I’ve ever had the pleasure of undertaking... answering the question, "What would it take to become a successful career Trader?"

In March 2010, I began blogging about it.

Congrats.

So, so proud! They may have inspired you to chase your dream, but you've put in all the hard work and preparation to make this your new reality.

It's been fun to follow your journey and I'm looking forward to the next 12 months!

(I'm going to get a little mush-mush here: but I can't think of a more deserving person!)

I have to plug my gambling roots:
Ask me anything about Day Trading - Business, Finances and Investing Forum
My Guide to Day Trading v2.0 *revised & updated* - Business, Finances and Investing Forum

Also, do you have an answer to the eventual question someone will ask you: what value do daytraders bring to society?
