    Why shouldn't I stay with Wilson for a couple of decades?

    No reason not to. Wilson is a good outfit.
    You asked about other companies though. I'd stick with Wilson.
    Get that UPS Store mail box in Missoula, then don't forget to change your mailing address at the Post Office.
     
    Solo Soul Thanks this.

    I don't day trade, but I have a portfolio that is my main gig. I move funds around and keep an eye on many different companies and invest accordingly. My dad is the stock genius. He got me into it 30 years ago and it's going strong. Being an O/O is my secondary gig.

    My wife has been doing stock trading for a long time. She started when she was a student at a university working on her MBA. She and some of her girl friends started that at the university and still talk on the phone every day about the stock market. Some of them are very wealthy now, like multi-millionaires.
    They're all Chinese from China. Their brains are wired for numbers and finance anyway.

    Yeah my dad is the same way. He's just wired for that kind of stuff. He's getting up there in years, and when he's gone I'll probably cash out and just live on what he made with my money. It really adds up when you know what do do. I talked him into buying Bitcoin when it came out and he bought quite a few. I'm still not letting him live that one down. He still thinks it's a scam, but one that's made us quite a bit.

    Best side gig ever , is to marry a smart woman who can make some good money.
    My wife has a masters degree in mathematics, works as an accountant in a specific niche of the industry, one year her year end bonus was more than I made all year.

    I am shopping at Safeway and wondering how these employees put up with this boring job! Why don't they deliver food, drive a cab or some other thing. These jobs suck!
    I want my truck. I can't breath when I am in these places.
