Playing devils advocate for the moment, none of the "perks" of trading are really perks at all - for me anyway.
1. The perk of being able to work from home and be your own boss
I find working from home lonely and depressing. Yes you are free to get up at 10am if you want and if you do you probably missed a move which will cost you later. Yes you are free to go for a 2 hour coffee break if you want. It's really fun sitting in Starbucks on your own. I know. I do it every day. Being my own boss doesn't compensate me for having no one to see since all my mates are in a 9-5. Plus, when you f*ck up - you don't have a boss to b*tch about. You have to take all the responsibility yourself. Hence you better get used to the headache of constant beratement and thinking/analysing your own mistakes.

Tom,
I'm sure a time will come when you will appreciate the freedoms trading gives.
