<< My problem is this: At school (economics major) I feel as if I am not

school is completed I will trade my account full-time. I have also noticed
that the best opportunities often surface when I am in class when I am unable
to act upon it. Is it worth my while to
complete school, with all the irrelevant subjects, and sacrifice any trading
opportunities, or should I trade full-time, knowing that it is probably what I
am going to do after graduation? >>
Definately stay in school! I attended a university that offered co-
operative education in many majors. Under this program, starting after your
sophmore year you attend classes one quarter and work in your field the next.
This means that a 4 year program takes 6, but the experience is great. If
your university does not offer such a program go to your advisor and design
one. The biggest problem will be scheduling required classes that are only
offered at certain times of year. The easiest may be finding a job in your
field, start with the brokerage that you trade your 120K account.
Good luck and good trading,
