I want to be a full time day trader! I’ve heard this said time and time again over the years. It’s a super ambitious goal and one that I can’t fault people for having. In the spirit of being brutally upfront: it’s a TERRIBLE goal. Please! Before you go kicking me to the curb as some kind of hater or a person trying to send out negative vibes, hear me out!
