    What do you tell people you "do"?

    I say either Full Time Gambler or Spread Better, but only if I'm prepared for the barrage of questions afterwards, otherwise I just say I'm in I.T. (which I used to be).

    FAQ Is Trading the Same as Gambling?

    A guy once said to me that he's gonna "invest" ten grand in Vodafone shares. I told him that what he was actually doing is saying "I bet ten grand that Vodafone goes up". Trading is gambling. Full Stop. Doesn't mean it's a bad thing however, I make a great living "gambling" :-)
