I guess it is a sign of time that traders discovered real estate.

Not daily, but I'm not a day trader-I'm long term and always have been.

+ much higher fees at retirement and not have full access to the funds for 20+ years.I am a horrible day trader.

Most money has been made by traders.

A good portfolio quant trader would not sell you hismain algorithm for a million dollars.

The best way to start is doing one purchase of one note, from an individual or broker, not going to institutional traders that are going to toss out the chafe to you in Florida.

I should preface this next part by saying that I am not a futures trader, but I tried to collect this data as accurately as I could:Commodity Time period Change in costCopper 2001-2007 UP 388%Steel 2001-2007 UP 238%Asphalt Cement 2001-2007 UP 143%Cement 2001-2007 UP 92%Gasoline 2001-2007 UP 96%US electricity prices 2001-2007 UP 118%US Median HouseholdIncome 2001-2007 UP 70%US Median Price of aSingle family home 2001-2007 UP 37%Lumber and plywood were fairly flat during this time frame.

The idea that the market suffers through Democrat presidencies has been disproven...in fact, Using the Dow Jones industrial average as the benchmark, Stock Trader's Almanac shows a $10,000 investment compounded during Democratic presidencies since 1901 would be worth $279,705 after 48 years.

The only thing that I know about NYC real estate is that:-CRE is crashing-hundreds of thousands of bankers, traders, and fund managers are losing their jobs-The oldest and most powerful investment bank are crumbling-etc...I'm sure there is a way to make money in RE in NYC, but I wouldn't know how.

You show me how to do that in the stock market and I'll quit my job to be a day trader.
