A short YouTube monologue by Kardec Trader (uploaded Aug 18, 2023) addressing young traders who try to convince their parents to accept trading as a career. The speaker advises against arguing and instead recommends demonstrating consistent, serious trading results to gain parental support.
I see a lot of kids trying to convince their parents, no mom, no dad, trading is it. This is it. I need to do this. I need to do this. And I'm like, don't tell them. Show them results. If you show them consistent results of you taking serious, you actually making money from it and you just having results, they'll eventually listen. But you can't go to your parents and be like, hey, I want to be a trader and I'm going to make it. And for them to be like, yeah, this trading thing makes no sense to me, but I believe in you. That's just hard. Like, you can't expect that support from them. Right. Because it's very new to them.
