Be me 15 thinking of a career in stock broking. Is it a smart idea to become a stock broker and if not what is a more profitable business career.

A mate of a mate is a stockbroker and is paid a fucking fortune. He's no brighter than the rest of us, and he'd admit that too. If you can handle the idea that your job is essentially meaningless, it sounds like it's great money

real easy to have nothing though. if you have a trade or actual job skill you can fall back on in hard times can be a life saver. do an apprenticeship, as a carpenter or something and get into trading when youre a little older. in the meantime learn about it (like a hobby) so when you do hit it, you have 5 years experience etc

Now that you mention it, *right now* is possibly not a great time to get into trading.

OP: study as a HVAC technician and learn Mandarin on the side
