5: How much money did you controll for your clients in your portfolio
as a stock broker?
Answer
I was lucky to be involved in selling stocks at the NASDAQ market for the scandinavian countries.
So i had clients buying blocks of shares from $5000.00 up to thousands. But for me it was all money in my pocket.
Every recommendation that comes from me earns me a clear 10% from the top. ( Now you can do you calculation )
One time I was speaking to a client from Greece and it took over 4 hours to convince him this is the best shares for him right now to build a portfolio.
His reply was i need you fly to my office.
So i asked him?
What kind of investment are we talking about.
His replied was 1 MILLION.
Anyway for 1 million i will even fly to Timbuktu, I took an other person with me to that meeting.
When we got to his office, he had so many body guards in the meeting room and they all carried guns.
To make the story short,
He wanted me to guarantee his return on investment with my safety. ( Leave the rest to your imagination )
Anyway we never done the deal.
