RE: Can you take the 'Hedge Fund Challenge' ?
Maserati's, Boats, Women (or dudes), vacations. I'll admit, I was sucked into that "lifestyle" when I first started trading. I wanted to trade from some remote topical paradise like they did. 30 minutes of market action in the morning is all it takes and you're done for the day! :)
All those promo vids are fake as shit. They hire a villa and a car for the weekend and take multiple changes of clothes and shoot a whole series in a couple days. Interviews in different rooms, with different clothes on. It makes it look like it's over a whole year, a 'lifestyle', but naturally it's all a con.
You can make enough money to live on a beach somewhere, but that's 'end goal' for most people, not starting out :-)
