I totally agree but Jamie's food is obviously highly rated by alot of people-the proof is in the pudding so to speak. Many vendors don't have proof of their trading skills. I would also say learning how to trade and learning how to cook are completely different especially as trading is so...

Jungle's, after spreads and commissions are included, are you BE trades still BE? What are your spreads and commisions?

Of course I have considered it just like many other things in life. The statement Hare made was that he/she is in contact with traders who won't become rich becuse they don't want to be. I implied this to mean they could be rich if they wanted to. Even if Hare meant rich as in the richlist and...
