I read a book called the traders, these were about guys who actually bought seats on exchanges. They traded for themselves, one guy told a story about having a bad day.He came home and his wife asked how his day was? He said he lost like 3 million dollars and then she said where do you want to go for dinner. It was just the way of the biz.
