Always wanted to be a stock broker

>always wanted to be a stock broker
where do I start?

You're literally a salesman.

You may as well be a real estate agent.

the average salary is high
I doubt id be average
much better than real estate agents

btw why question something someone wants to do it adds nothing to the thread

>try r9k

start at the bottom. now we here.

for real though start by enrolling in a finance degree program at a reputable university.

minor in economics now, and already know this degree is key so I will be getting it.

I want to know when im done with all this where do I start? Exempt school from all of this.

yes and they get paid very well thanks for adding to the thread
>try r9k

maybe do that first.

maybe talk to like 10.

Hollywood tends to romanticize being a stock broker and wall street in and of itself. Seems as if most traders independently buy and sell through an electronic platform rather via some grimy sales man.

That's what I mean, but how do they even exist these days?

OP seemed to say he's "always wanted to be one", but it seems like this isn't even a currently existing profession really

It's on its last legs

You've always wanted to be a worthless parasite? I've got a better idea

It's tricky to transfer funds of (i think) $100k+

There are some laws and rules and what not where it's just easier to go through a person oppose to some banks website.

>There are some laws and rules and what not where it's just easier to go through a person oppose to some banks website

What is tricky about it?

How would a person help you here? I've had no issue funding my broker account for my bank account

*from my bank account

What was the max you have you transferred / bought in one trade?

idk, in high school my commerce teacher told me that and he was loaded so I took his word for it.

>What was the max you have you transferred / bought in one trade?

$15k I think

I was thinking more for the whales.

The guys that need to transfer 100's of thousands across

I dunno. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to
