Default Re: Taking a gamble in life

Its tough working on your own...as much as you like the freedom you have to be on the hustle. When i first became a stock broker/financial advisor this was in the year 1999..where you could pretty much throw darts at the wall street journal and your clients accounts would be up 300% in a few short months...

When the market got crappy it was tough...when i was calling new prospects the last thing they wanted to talk about was the stock market and how they bought JDSU on margin at 100 a share...

My advice to you is this... tighen up your belt... Once you become an independent contractor its really hard to go back to the real working world and work for somebody in a 9-5 job. If you are marriend w/ kids i would reconsider and talk to your wife...
