How much should you save?

The question of how much a person should save cannot be answered in a few words, for the amount each should save depends upon many conditions, some of which ma be within one;s control and some of which may not be.

A salaried worker should apportion his or her income about as follows.

Savings Account  20%
Necessities             50%
Education               10%
Recreation             10%
Life insurance       10%
                                      100%

The following, however , indicates the approximate distribution that the average person actually makes of their income.

Savings Account   0%
Necessities            60%
Education               0%
Recreation             35%
Life insurance       5%
                                      100%

Careful analysis of 178 men who are known to be successful disclosed the fact that all had failed many times before arriving.

It is no wonder the rich becoming richer and the poor are becoming poorer!

We are all victims of habit.

If you save nothing, you are absolutely sure never to be financially independent, no matter how much your income may be.

You cannot rely upon such a miracle happens to you.

All sales people will do well to remember that no one wants anything that someone else if trying to get rid of.

Think well before you speak because your words may plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of some other person.

I am thankful for the adversities that have crossed my pathway, for they have taught me tolerance, sympathy, self control, perseverance and some other virtues I might never have known.

 All great leaders in every walk of life are highly sexed, but they follow the habit of controlling their sex desires, switching them into a driving force behind their occupation. The person who has self discipline understands the emotion of sex, respects it, and learns to control and transmute it into contructive activities. Q: Just what damage is there in over-indulgence of sex? A: The greatest damage is that it depletes the source of man's greatest driving force, and wastes, without adequate compensation, man's creative energy. Controlled sex supplies the magnetic force that attracts people to one another. It is the most important factor of a pleasing personality. It gives quality to the tone of voice and enables one to convey through the voice any feeling desired. It serves, as nothing else can serve, to give motive power to one's desires. It keeps the nervous system changed with the energy needed to carry on the work of maintaining the body. It sharpens the imagination...

SURVIVE THE LEARNING CURVE

 Those who can give trading more time when they start have a better chance to succeed. you must be patient. But your time will come. At the start of your trading, you should trade with small size and with one stock. You should not increase your tier size until you are positive 7/10 trading days. You should set a small max loss when you begin. You should be limited in your buying power. For example, when a new trader begins, he should not write more than 10k shares in a day, total. you are not going to be a great trader on Day One Gladwell explains, “Working hard is what really successful people do.” t deep practice, often with continuous feedback, is necessary to become great. Concentrated practice is key Daniel Coyle in The Talent Code: Greatness Isn’t Born. It’s Grown. If you want to be good at something, practice. Practice deliberately, and do so for many years.

CAN A FIRM ALWAYS SPOT THE NEXT GREAT TRADER?

 No. But a prop firm can tell who has a poor chance to become a CPT. To be good at anything will take everything you have. Not having developed the skills to work hard is a turn-off. Trading is a skill learned by doing, not just by reading a lot, theorizing, or the faux art of “paper trading.” THE PROS AND CONS OF RECRUITING EXPERIENCED TRADERS Loyalty is a good thing to a point, but it cannot trump logistics and reality. losing money should really bother you. If I am negative three days in a row, I spend a long evening on my couch with a bottle of red wine and comfort food. As traders, we can all recite the memorable line from Wall Street: “A man looks in the abyss, there is nothing staring back at him. At that moment he discovers his character. That keeps the man out of the abyss.”  Traders don’t talk about how they want to trade, what they want to read about trading, or how they wish they could talk about trading. Traders trade, read about trading, and talk about trading.
