Can you tell us how you got started in trading?
I started out as a personal trader. We’re going back a long way — we’re talking about the mid-1960s. And from my personal trading, it kind of evolved into my doing articles for various magazines relating to investment, and then a series of books relating to investment, and then ultimately to the establishment of my own market planner and money management firm.
