Navigating Conversations About Trading

And lastly, strangers.

As a young man,

when I was doing my job, I would finish off

filling up the candy machines and the soda machines

and coffee machines and such.

And I used to do a vending route

that did a long day, 13 hours or so.

And

during my route, I felt this

unreasonable desire to tell other people that

I don't even know.

Yeah, I'm looking at a market. I hope it goes up and blah, blah, blah.

What?

What are you talking to me about that for?

So when you tell strangers or if you meet someone in the pub

or you're at a club or

right now it's hard to go to those places right now because of all the things

that's been impacted by the illnesses

being spread around.

The

social circles, when you run into people,

they'll ask you, hey, you know, so what do you do with yourself?

That's not the invitation to say, well, I'm looking to start trading

commodities.

They're going to be like, what? Yeah, I'm trading foreign exchange market.

Right away, they're going to be like, what is that?

And that's what you want them to ask you.

And then when you start talking about it, they're like, oh yeah, that's like the

stock market. You're not interested.

Or they're interested and they want to know how much money you

made and you can't

tell them if you need any money. You're just now starting.

So really you're a startup and they're not really interested in the

conversation

anymore. So you're not going to get that feedback again,

what you're looking for.

So don't seek the approval from others.

You have to pursue this on your own steam, your own energy.

And if you had any dependency on an outside

source, be it any one of these four groups,

family, friends, coworkers, or

strangers

to give you that

nudge,

that little bit of a

pat on the back that you're doing the right thing for yourself,

you're going to struggle.
