So I been told recently to find my passion and gone to an advisor and they have told me try a bunch of different stuff but I need to actually see it for my self. I need help because I been stuck on this for years but this last year especially has been stressful. So I know what a passion for something feels like I had it for fixing computers/laptops and stuff, the hardware and software and when I would help someone I used to get this amazing feeling and feel great that I helped them solve a problem. And I could talk about it all day long. But in terms of a job perspective I can't find it. I have been thinking to try check out what being a financial analyst is like but then I think to my self do I want to do this? Do I really want to be constructing financial models, doing complex maths, statistics, etc. The very first thing that comes into my mind is no its too hard and boring and would get extremely fustrated. So is this a clear sign that I should not be a financial analyst? Then comes next in investing real estate which I find interesting its simple to understand and not really that frustrating as compared to being a value investor for example. But can't see it as a career like I don't want to do sales, I don't want to stand there convincing people to buy a product.
I look at day trading and it makes me very exciting just making money on a daily basis. When I did a calculation the stock selling for 0.31 and I buy 72,000 worth so that's 22,320 dollars. And the stock goes to 0.35 and then you do the second last calculation which is 25200-22,320 = 2880 , I think holy crap I can make that much money (I know its before tax and brokerage fee but still you will have a decent chunk of money left over) and just want to jump on trading. Of course I would first educate my self like I have with real estate investing and stock investing.
I am now thinking is day trading something that suits me? They say its a very lonely career that's EASY for me, no doubt in my mind I am pretty much at home all day studying real estate and that and would be no different for day trading. I prefer working by my self I think, I do like the team environment like at my job its fun but that's because we joke around alot, don't think its like that at a more serious work place lol.
Then next I think canI handle losing money? Right now its hard to be honest with my self but I would probably say no, only because I don't have a full time job if I had lets say for example 60-100k income per year I could handle losing the money I think, not that I want to but emotionally I think I could handle it but I could be wrong at the same time.
I know I definitely want to own a business or at least be my own boss, I want to be an entrepreneur I just don't know what I want to do so now I am exploring day trading.
What do you guys think? Should I pursue trading and test with real capital once I have educated my self enough or find another career?
