Fortunate is the person who has learned that the most certain way to get is to first give, through some sort of useful service.

It is better to sacrifice during the age of youthfulness, than it is to be compelled to do so during the age of maturity as all who have not developed the habit of saving generally have to do.

I am thankful that i was born poor that i did not come into this world burdened by the whims of wealthy parents, with a bag of gold around my neck.

Forming the savings habit means that to some extent at least, you must seclude yourself from all except a well selected group of friends who enjoy you without elaborate entertaining on your part.

To admit you lack the courage to trim down your expenditures so that you can save money, even if only a small amount, is the equivalent of admitting at the same time a lack of the sort of character that leads to success.

It has been proved, times too numerous to mention, that people who have formed the habit of saving are always given preference in positions of responsibility.

The saving of money not only adds advantages in the nature of preferred employment and a larger bank account, but it also increases the actual earning capacity.

Any business will prefer to employ a person who saves money regularly, not only because that person saves money, but more because of the characteristics possessed by such a person which make him or her more efficient.

It should be a common practice for all business to require all employees to save money. This would be a blessing to many who would not otherwise have the willpower to form the savings habit.

Henry Ford has gone a very long way, perhaps as far as is expedient, to induce his employees not only to save their money but also to spend what they do spend wisely, and to live sanely and economically. The manager who induces their employees to form the habit of saving is a practical philanthropist.

Opportunities that come to those who have saved money.

Most people in business will not trust another person with their money unless that person has demonstrated an ability to take care of their own and use it wisely.

TRADING BASED UPON THE TIME OF DAY A good trader makes note of what time of day it is, when he trades most profitably, and adjusts his trading to fit such times. Your numbers at the end of the month will not reflect your true trading potential. Make the most trades with the most size during the trading periods that statistically are most profitable for you.

Not liquidating a losing trade, even after you have acknowledged the trade's potential is greatly diminished. 3. Getting locked into a specific opinion or belief about market direction. From a psychological perspective this is equivalent to trying to control the market with your expectation of what it will do: "I'm right, the market is wrong." 4. Focusing on price and the monetary value of a trade, instead of the potential for the market to move based on its behavior and structure. 5. Revenge-trading as if you were trying get back at the market for what it took away from you. 6. Not reversing your position even when you clearly sense a change in market direction. 7. Not following the rules of the trading system. 8. Planning for a move or feeling one building, but then finding yourself immobilized to hit the bid or of...
