How To Make A Living Trading Other People's Money
In episode 158 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I sit down with stocks & futures trader Jerremy Newsome from Real Life Trading to discuss how to make a living trading other people's money (also called OPM).
This episode is another collaboration with Jerremy and I really love his insights and the things that he thinks about that I wanted to bring this on the podcast once again. You guys have been hearing Jerremy for a few times in the past month.
In this podcast, we talk about mostly how to trade for OPM (or other people’s money). There are a couple of important things that I didn’t even know myself but that I learned by speaking with Jerremy. Even if you do not trade for other people, you will still learn a lot from this interview. We talk about how to pay your taxes as a trader and a lot, lot more.
