I am recently retired, and beginning to fine-tune what my online business portfolio will look like. I was always intrigued by the stock market, because my parents held IBM for their lifetime. Of course, they had no idea as to how the market works and no broker/advisor to direct them. The movies about wall street also piqued my interest, but I knew I'd have to find mentors and advisors to learn how to navigate the shark-invested (lol. I mean: Gordon Gecko infected) waters of trading.
Charles is a great Man. Straight-shooter, and knowledgeable winner. I've read this book a few times, and highlighted it the 2nd time. He is a great teacher, who I love getting email updates from and especially watching speak!
But, I would caution any rookies getting into the market game... I studied wall street and trading for over two year, BEFORE I pulled the trigger on my first trade. It took me that long to vet the TWO trading systems that I implement today. I strongly suggest taking the time to learn this game. That means: watch plenty of trader's videos to vet them. There are trading sites that allow play-money trading, and that's where you should start.
Over time, you'll figure out what your trading-style is, and start making money.
Thanks for the kick-start, Chuck!
