Irrelevant to IM: Is being a Stockbroker a good job?



I would vote: NO. I personally think insurance and other financial products can yield a happier life with long term residuals.
 
Even for someone passionate about making money? Are these as profitable and as difficult?
 
If you're good at it, then you simply become a trader yourself. Why manage other people's money for a small cut of their profits when you could manage your own money?
