Which do you prefer? Normal job or Forex?

[momo3HC]

I have lost so much money in my first years in forex that I would never think about doing it instead of normal job for living.
You can make money but you need regular income from elsewhere. Forex is good for fun.

That was my point for multiple streams of income.

Diversification at its finest

 

[Petez_FX]

I would hands down take Forex before a 9-5 job working for somebody you don't care about. Work on yourself, not for somebody else.

I know some professional traders who's developing their forex business just fine, and some of them even quit their job. What's not to like to grow your own business? You can arrange your schedule the way you want, and as long as their is internert , you can do your business worldwide.

\I like the theory of forex trading for a living

That`s good but there will be a lot of hard work, sweat and money till (or if) you achieve it.

Stress levels certainly go up when you do it for a living

I enjoy both, but am lucky to work my regular job part time and like what i do, but when my bank is large enough, my intention is to trade full time.

Usually forex is more attractive than normal job. It gives you freedom and it CAN be much more profitable than normal day jobs. But Forex can degrade your social relations. You can stay inside house and spend your time by the computer or be outside in an office or a shop and talk to real people and do business with them. It’s the matter of preferences.

Thanks guys

Sure.Diversify your income streams is the best way. Normal job, forex, investments and etc.

There is only Forex, Forex is life... The day i finally quit my job was the best feeling, had worked on two years working full time and self employed trading. The jump was freeing and now mainly invest in rental property and Forex.

Really happy for you and even a bit jealous.

Working on Forex has its pros and cons. On the positive side, Forex allows you to earn remotely. You are no longer tied to the same place and work for yourself. Here you can always find new opportunities, get new knowledge, etc. On the other hand, imagine that now you will have your own business, which requires investments. If you are going to live off money that you get from this source only, you will need a confident start-up capital, which will provide you with an adequate income. In order for you to act like this, and need more knowledge, I do not think that if the monthly income is a few hundred dollars, you will be satisfied with it. First of all, I would make the most accurate plan, which will correspond to your average monthly figures and will allow you to calculate how much you will earn on certain investments.

I think you can leave your main job if you have the skills and some idea of Forex trading and how it works, well, or first study this kitchen from the inside, and then make a choice.

Regular job gives me confidence. Forex trading gives me profit
