New to doing it right trading. That make sense?

Currently recuperating from five way heart bypass surgery in late November of 2018. Have started back to work driving dump truck for my sons excavation business on California's most destructive wild fire known as The Camp Fire in Paradise Ca.. If the 15 hour days don't finish me off then maybe I'm strong hearted enough and hard headed enough to do day trading the correct way. Have purchased Mr. Walshe's books and am actually studying and digesting the information available. Looking forward to reading stories and ideas and suggestions on this forum. Still have a good deal of reading and researching and paper trading to do but am excited to be allowed to rub elbows with such a diverse group of traders. I only work three days a week so it will leave me time for my studies. Thank you ladies and gentlemen and let the Bulls and the Bears free to do what they do best.

Thank you N. Yes I've discovered quite a few piles of rubbish in doing my research and I appreciate any and all help you and the other more experienced traders can offer. Looking forward to getting my feet wet but now being wise enough, I hope, to take this good advice and make as few mistakes as possible.
