Girls, what would your parents think at first if you introduced your partner to them and he was a full time day trader?

[Shoichiro]

For those who don't know, an example of a day trade with stocks would be buying an Apple share for $100 on Tuesday and selling it for $110 on Tuesday (same day). This obviously risks losing money since the Apple share price may go down to $90, for example, meaning the trader would lose $10 for each share he bought. Successful traders tend to make a LOT of money.

Assuming your partner is a successful trader, what would your parents think of him at first?

Feel free to mention what YOU would think about him too

They make a lot of money, so he is a good choice

He probably has no qualifications

His income will be unstable

He doesn't have a real job

Can he teach me to day trade?

As long as you love him, we accept him

Allow me to give you the same answer as I gave you yesterday on your other account that featured the exact same question. Here it comes

I would never get into a relationship with a person that takes such risks and I am sure my parents would back me up. Gambling with money has never been a strong point in y family.

However, if that should be the case as per your scenario, my parents would make sure that I would never allow my new partner to have any access to my bank account and that I do not loan him any money whatsoever.

It is so easy to play with other people's money and I would not want to lose a cent or penny on risky trading business just like I would never invest in cryptocurrencies.

You are aware that multiple accounts are not permitted. I took the liberty to make a screen print of both questions, the one of yesterday and today's, just in case...

[Shoichiro]

This is the same account - I just posted the question anonymously the first time. The reason I reposted the same question is because I changed the topic from "Education and Career" to "Girl's Behaviour" so that more people would see the question and answer it.

Why did you immediately assume it was on a different account and why are you so clearly upset?

[SueShe]

If you would only know how many people pull the same trick...

[Shoichiro]

I don't even know what you're talking about. What trick? Why are you speaking so vaguely?

I don't know if this is just how people are but on this site I've come across many people that give vague responses like "If you would only know how many people pull the same trick...". How am I even meant to know what you're talking about unless I'm familiar with these "tricks" you accuse me of? Are you trying to sound cool?

My mom knows about trading. And I do too. So if the trader has some expertise that only comes with long term practice like in 2-3 years then he would be a pro trader. And also how much money does he has in his account is important. How much he makes too

[Shoichiro]

Suppose he makes $50,000 per year on average. What would your parents think? Likewise, what if he made $100,000 per year? (Assume he has $50,000 and $100,000 in his trading account for each scenario, respectively.)

[Gise12]

I don't live in US. So salaries in my country and my expectations or my mom's are different. Typically master traders reach their potential in 5-10 years and they have other projects they want to do with the money they make on trading. So if you have a plan. Then I'd be nice.
When people don't know at all about trading, they may don't get what you're doing and think you're a gambler or about to lose it all.
I believe 50k income per year is OK because good traders only improve each year. But having 100k or 50k in their account I find no good because that money is being use for trades so it's no liquid money.
