For the past 8 years I have had a career as a location manager in the film industry.  I have been fortunate to have work at home, as most folks have to travel to stay busy.  I have a strong desire to “escape” the industry for many reasons.  The pay has been decent, but you essentially dedicate your whole life to whatever show you may be working on.  I am also a little dismayed by the fact that I contribute to the dumbing down of the American audience.  There is no denying, in my mind, that most of the “programming” out there leads to a dreadful culture of wannabe zombie fighters and beer bellied goons (my apologies if that offends anyone).  I am sharing all this because I have an opportunity for a 3 month gig.  I am hesitant to take the job for the reasons described, but earning money falls into the “life getting in the way” category. This would take me away from live webinars and active trading, but I could surely continue my education.  These next few months may actually be the best time to be away from the trading given that September and October are historically bad for the market.  I am not totally sold on taking the job, but I can’t help but feel that it may be the wise move for me at my current stage in life.  Thank you all for your continued support and advice.  Trade Well!
