Lol, i would like to start the ball rollin.
1. My Vision - Yea, it was this drive inside me to succeed, i can settle for nothing less. I wanted to become rich and successful, and i thought that investing in the stock market is a very useful tool. Like Blain, i too, want to learn really badly, even if it means staying up late at night, or waking up early in the morning(and getting scolded by me parents
) just to enjoy a few minutes of conversation with someone across the Pacific.
2. Mentors - Haha, i would like to thank the board, for having spent so much time answering my silly questions, as well as pushing me forward through providing me with materials to read, and games to play. Yea, i will say he was, and still is my great mentor. Mentors are wonderful, really. There are many other people who have helped me a lot, like Moss and Blain, wonderful people, really. "a vital person to have" indeed!
3. A practice journal - Yea, of course we have the great and wonderful investopedia, but there are others out there as well
. For me, i am currently involved only in Falkin 3(wanted to better my understanding of stocks, better moving to things like forex) . You can learn about commodities trading and the like, really interesting.
4. An addition to what you can get started, try writing a diary on your views, and experiences in the stock market. Look back at it later on, and look at the kinds of stuff that you say. Is there anything to be learnt, any lessons to be taken from your mistakes(you may not spot whateverwas wrong with you when you are caught in the heat of the moment, but evaluate yourself later on, and the picture might be clearer) Haha, you can start a blog, like Blain or Mark.
