I have spent the last 7 hours organizing my whole financial life and taking notes on all your videos. 100% helpful and simply interesting to know being a college student. THANK YOU!
Your 'short term pain' analogy and diagram is brilliant. It's something we don't get taught well enough here in Scotland, UK. People instantly think the 'long term freedom' goal is achievable by skipping the hard work. In fact, I'll hold my hands up and say I'm guilty of the same mindset. Keep up the great work !!
Well, the difference with you is you have admitted it to yourself. Most people never do... so that in and of itself separates yourself from the vast majority of people. Well done!
I’m a newbie in stockmarket, I finally open an account last 2 days ago and I’m excited to trade and ivest and now I watch your videos as learning tool. Thank you so much from Philippines！
That's ameizing how so many people didn't really understand the msg. How to start trading. Step 1 - mentality - to be ready to make sacrifices Time and Money. Well done!!
I don't blame the people. There are so many "marketers" out there trying to prey on people by "selling the dream".... and yeah, "be prepared to sacrifice" is not really the best dream to be selling on my part lol
This video is about "short term pain"(working extra hours, losing money, patience, etc.) as a prerequisite for beginning a new career/hobby/etc. That's it. If you're looking for "how to trade stocks," look somewhere else.
heh. Nice. I've watched a lot of your other videos. Good quality. Keep it up. My dad's teachings on the market amount to: "You can't consistently win all the time. No one can consistently predict what's going to happen. The best you can do is diversify and follow the market. It's kind of like gambling." Your thoughts?
Sorry, but that's not what I'm looking for. "It's less risky if you use rules and tools. Give me your email and I'll tell you 3 of them free, but the 2 others will cost you." Good luck with your endeavors, and thanks for the quick replies.
Im 16 and I want to eventually become involved with the stock market and I've got a part time job and I've got money saved up. But after listening to you I'm going to save even more money and spend less so I can have more money to eventually use in the stock market. You're videos are really helpful, keep up the good work!!
There are fifty thousand how to trading videos on youtube and not one of them starts by informing you that you need to learn self control before you can trade. Wisest words for a how to trade video for sure.
Cheers Tim. It's amazing how many people (read through other comments) fail to realize THAT is the point of the video and totally gloss over it. Then, fast forward to when they're showing no self control and losing money and wondering "why is this so difficult?"
Finally someone who´s real and cut´s the bullsh*t. Love to hear about to sacrifice and the short term pain. That is so true Thank you Clay for sharing your knowledge.
Dude, ima FREACKING give you one of these 3 things once I succeed at trading and I'm halfway there to becoming a millionaire cuz I love your simple yet totally understood teachings which motivated me to pursue this field more seriously now that I've gathered more knowledge and courage to persist and not quit cuz of misinformation I received from pessimistic people in the past! These 3 things are: 1) A brand new Porsche car of your choosing, 2) Any one ex girlfriend of mine who doubted me and summarized that I will never account for anything, 3) My student loan as a whole, or a partial amount! You pick! Thanks man!!
Clay, I've got the mindset. I've been poor a lot of my life, spent lots, saved lots for my age. I don't have a phone plan to save, I don't own a car, I walk. I roof in the summer and I keep a part time while I'm attending school. I may actually pick up another.
Thanks for your honest and straightforward approach. My dad nearly got roped into a $25,000 trading class at a flashy sales seminar. The finance fee (before interest) alone was more than your entire course. The real kicker for me was how they told students what lies to tell a brokerage firm in order to get an options account when they don't actually meet the criteria, rather than teaching them how to make a plan to meet those criteria.
I don't understand people who dont' appreciate other people's videos. Don't watch them, its simple and take your time and energy where it belongs! I find these super useful, great work and thank you :)
Thank GOD for this man. Im starting my business while in college and trying to learn stocks and trying to get in med school. This is a big leap in knowledge
Been investing for a few years now. Retired , but investing is really slow, ( and I don't have 50 yrs to invest)especially now the market has had major pullback because of covid-19. Ready to start making money to make life a little easier. I have a fair amount of capital to work with , You're a great Teacher. looking forward to watching them all.
I'm 20 yrs old now! My daily life is the same as what you said: studying, doing assignments, having a part-time job, and now I'm looking for something new and I found buying stocks is interesting. I can make money with it
Preach it! I dont get why people think so low of budgeting ! I have always been budgeting and this is what helped me manage my expenses living overseas during my studies. Those sacrifices were well worth it! Through putting money aside for 2 years straight I saved $4000 Im in France now continuing to save and I plan to invest in real estate and hoping to launch my own company with these savings Your videos are helping refine my financial objectives
To be honest one of my major flaws is that I'm impatient. I have a hard time keeping a job because I'm just ready to jump in it what I want to do. Since you explained it like this it makes it easier to see that what's happening now is SHORT term pain. I must go through it to achieve my goals no matter the direction you go to make money to start. It's just short term. Thank you sir.
I'm also a newbie. Trying to learn everything i can. has helped me make 1000 usd in 1 week. Reach out to christian fraser to carrry you along. He trades for you and teach you along too. I really recommend him to anyone. Reach him at cct.fraser @gmail .com
Margaret Elizabeth >hi Elizabeth- 1k in a single trading week is fantastic! I have other issues... I work at 2 different hospitals over a 6 day week and I just can't trade when I need to/want to/should be trading...🙁
Sure Joe. Its not always like that thou. Some weeks don't go too well. But i could always boast of overall positive earning over a period of a month. Been trading for 4 months now. How long have you been trading?
listening to this while i study trading... heard the part when he said 90% of traders fail and my heart skipped several beats... i will not be deterred! bring on the lessons
i’m 15 and i wanna start trading early but half the time my mind can’t process what’s going on in the screen and i’ve been searching for videos to start bc i wanna have money to have a comfortable life in the future i’m sure with your videos i’ll be able to make that money :)
Great video! You basically described my life, I work my full time job, do my grad schools assignments, work on my business and try to learn ways to invest the spare money I have from my wages and side income, that’s all I do (and sleep). It’s hard, I’m exhausted sometimes but I know It will pay off at the end. I found inspiration to keep going on your video, thanks!
I did NOT get anything out of this. I recommend a title change or adding more content. You beat that poor horse dead and then just kept whacking the carcass.
Well, according to the number of thumbs up, apparently some people did. Thanks for your feedback. Not get out there and be realistic with your expectations.
I can tell you’re a really trustworthy guy. I’m glad I clicked on your videos first. I’m just gonna stay on this channel to learn about stocks until I have my debt paid off then I’m going with a big stock company. I just want to be educated on it so I know what they’ll be doing with my money. Anyways, thanks!
I wouldn't say you were a "loser" but you were/are smart ! Thank you for explaining in simple terms and not using a bunch of words that only people already in the stock market would understand.
Im glad my short pain is almost over almost 2 years of studying and 8 months of papertrading and spend €4000 on trading education. Now starting with $3400 going to start making atleast my first trade next week. Great video!
All the best to ya. I hope you consider joining my community to assist in your trading. We have a good group and it's only $99 for an entire year claytrader.com/innercircle/
How to start trading!!!!! Ill worry about getting a second job when i get started...Jesus man!!! How to cook an egg> First you got to get the chicken.....then a rooster.......I got the egg man!!!! Now how do i cook it?
That's great you have the egg. But please realize that just because YOU do, doesn't mean that everyone does. The world doesn't revolve around you... ya know?
"how to start trading" save some money and go to college, but I wont just tell you this, I will make a 12 minute video to explain these 2 simple things but I wont give any actual tips.
No Pain no gain! That's true in every human endeavor. You have to work hard if you want to live a better life. I am fascinated by your articulateness and knowledge. Keep up the good work.
ClayTrader I have to agree with you both, I came here to learn how to trade but i feel like the title of this video was a bit misleading. However, the things I've learned from this video have been quite valuable and I am glad I watched it. Good work man, I'm going to check out more of your stuff and subscribe!
Former buckeye!!!! I'm a current buckeye and i'm loving your story and how you got started, funny thing is I'm doing the same exact thing right now,. Sleep, eat, class, study . Thanks for your time!
This is twelve minutes of patronizing your audience. Most of us realize that trading stocks isn't a cakewalk. But honestly, if you imagine that you're speaking to some hippy-dippy, booze-drinking, game of thrones watching millennial, then you shouldn't make this channel. Those people don't normally give a dump about the market. Your video can be summed up in one sentence: "Making and keeping money is going to be hard if you have bad spending habits" Thanks a bunch, Sherlock.
Thanks for the feedback. Given the other comment's I've gotten, I know it's help at least several people, so that makes it worth the time on my end. Take care.
I guess I shouldn't expect everything that shows up in TH-cam to be catered 100% specifically to me. I appreciate your willingness to educate. Sorry, sometimes I forget these comments are read by actual people. Keep up the good work, man. Don't let dumb-asses like me stop ya.
ClayTrader you speaking slowly isn’t going to impact anything. Maybe just accept your teaching method is wrong rather than trying to disprove 30 peoples feelings
You are speaking facts. Your hand and facial gestures are off the wall; very funny. But regardless, you're speaking the truth. Keep schooling individuals and I enjoyed your video. Thanks again.
I'm biased, so I'm not going to sit here and give you some high pressure sales pitch, all I'll say is that if you enjoy the free content I have to offer on my site and on TH-cam, I can very confidently say that I'm sure you would find great value in my premium content/training. If interested, you can find my training courses here: claytrader.com/training/
I greatly appreciate how you started off this video truthfully by going in depth about the mindset/philosophy you must have when going into trading. This mindset/philosophy is applicable to any field that anyone is trying to be successful; short-term pain.
ClayTrader no doubt. I was just laid off and I’m looking to get into trading, but I’m trying to gather free knowledge for now. I know eventually I’m going to need to double down on my knowledge and pay for courses and find a mentor. I’m going to watch a lot of your videos, but do you have any tips?
I like how honest you are😊. No pain no gain. I'm 20 and I am graduating college next week. I feel like college was a scam :/. Thankfully I am debt - free, but I do wish that I had worked more to save to trade.
This is the best video you can apply for all online business. I just got a new job so I can restart my Shopify store again. Everything in this video I did when I was making 200/ wk but found a new job more capital more opportunities. I hear you though just get up and do it emotions aside. This really sharpened my sword 🗡
This entire video could've been summed up in about three sentences. You're not wrong about what you're saying, but you have mislabeled the video (try something like "Trading 101: Requisite Mindset / Mental Preparation") and wasted 12 minutes for 200,000 viewers. More specifics and less soap box, please.
Paraphrasing, he says "Don't rely on internet to get information, go to school" and says "90% of trader's fail." He got that second part from the internet...............................................
Please calm down. You apparently missed the point. You better get your expectations in line with reality or you'll never have a chance at success. If you ALREADY have done that, then good for you, you are well ahead of many.
I've already started that journey by attending a coding bootcamp and living at my mothers house lmfao. I've been broke the last 2 years. But, it took 2 years of solid hustle, learning, applying, to get to where i am now and now I have a job paying me 80k. So, now I'm starting the process of learning this so I could do this part time while I'm doing the things I need to do. I've got a growth mindset. But, first I'm going to use paper trading and and online resources to have a solid foundation before buying any course or finding a community. I've got the time and patience to make it happen.
I was looking at trading myself and I have a bit of money and I like the warning that you give..I'm beginning to understand the difference between gambler and investor...
Im 15 right now, about 6 months ago i got my dad to setup a limited company which i am 100% shareholder in so its basically my company. I do lawn-mowing for elderly people mainly so its normally the same people i go to but i get new customers here and there. I managed to make a very large sum of money (even in this 6 months) from which i'm going to use to trade with then hopefully invest that money into creating a company which i can grow unlike a lawn-mower business. I am sharing this with you guys so if there are any other young people here they know its never too early to start doing this. In this case trading on the stock market.
I really liked this video. It confirms what I think I already knew but needed to hear it again. I'm 34 and I would love financial freedom not just for me but my family. I'm earning better money now and I'm going to start putting some away and build on my knowledge so hopefully one day my loved ones can prosper. God bless you.
I feel like taking this guys advice might make me a little richer in the long run, but also turn me into a angry, no nonsense person that rarely smiles by age 50. I mean I'm pretty sure there are other ways to be successful in the stock market without being overly critical.
True, i never went to any parties as well. I'd rather work on my goals than drink beers all night and watch how my classmates and all the other kids waste their life on nonsensical stuffs. It was all worth it. My classmates in high school married young while im working on my dreams. Now im learning trading thanks for this video and the links you provided.
I like your style. A lot the whiny wimps tend to be the EMOTIONAL investors...opposite of what your raving audience is who is more HEAD than HEART tired of the feel-good positivity to spare hurting their delicate self with the straight-up real talk tough love needed. To all those whiny wimps, go somewhere else or don't even enter trading.
Can not wait for the live seminar Thursday January 16th. Definitely willing to experience short term pain. Very eager and excited. Clay you have taught me more in a few videos than any research I have done previously. Keep it up!! Very appreciative over here.
Great! I'll see ya soon! For those wondering about the live seminar (online that is), you can learn more and sign up here claytrader.com/1-hour-trader-transformation/
This! Thank you Clay, I currently have the same mindset of the young you (I'm in my late 20's) and I realized that I need something new to learn. And Trading comes to my mind 😊
Wow! It was a heart warming feeling to hear that some of my traits are similar to yours. However, I lack a little discipline. I have a question. I work a part time job and I have productive hobbies on the side. To make any kind of profit from the stock market, A) How much time would you need? and B) How much money would you need to save to get started?
You could do swing trading and not need a whole ton of time. As far as how much? Watch this: claytrader.com/videos/much-money-need-trade/ (keep in mind though, like any "Job", you first need to properly learn what you are doing, so education comes first)
I'm forever explaining this to my friends. One asked me the other day if I wanted to come to a concert. I said no, because of the money. I have debts, which are my priority. After that, It's your courses. Then, it'll be some more courses, because I like doing courses. It's taking me a while and it's been a bad couple of years as compared to the usual, but i'll get there. Persistence is insurance against failure.
perfect video! i am crazy new to trading with next to no money. i am a retired veteran with way to much time on my hands and i am looking for some to fill up my day that could pay out.
What would be good a starting capital? And what kind of education will one need? are you talking about book? Classes? Or perhaps major in college that guide that way? Thanks for your videos
I'm already in pain after watching your video haha, just thinking about what I need to do to get into trading. BUT also got me motivated to want to start trading. Thanks for the video.
This video has given me a very different perspective to trading. i completely agree with what Clay says in this video and i am going to apply what i have learnt in this video. thank you.
Thanks for the feedback Kyle. You'd probably enjoy this one too then claytrader.com/videos/the-painful-truth-about-day-trading-and-rule-1-to-get-started/
I'd encourage you to sign up for my (free) class I offer here claytrader.com/1-hour-trader-transformation/ this will be very helpful in regards to what you're asking.
Well, I came here to learn "how to get started with the trading" but I found the information even more helpful. Thanks for sharing and making this! Cheers! :)

Thank you. I appreciate the kind words!
I second that
never write with yellow please..
I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for the feedback.
Cadre Hanson it's a part of the short term pain
I buy yellow lighters so no one will steal them. lol
hahahaha :P
thats LIGHT green,. NOT yellow. but i see your point
I’m a newbie in stockmarket, I finally open an account last 2 days ago and I’m excited to trade and ivest and now I watch your videos as learning tool. Thank you so much from Philippines！
Give this a look too claytrader.com/blog/getting-started/
How is it going? Please reply🤙🏻
That's ameizing how so many people didn't really understand the msg.
How to start trading. Step 1 - mentality - to be ready to make sacrifices Time and Money.
Well done!!
I don't blame the people. There are so many "marketers" out there trying to prey on people by "selling the dream".... and yeah, "be prepared to sacrifice" is not really the best dream to be selling on my part lol

Your thoughts?
Is it gambling? My response: claytrader.com/videos/stock-trading-quick-tip-stock-trading-gambling/
Sorry, but that's not what I'm looking for. "It's less risky if you use rules and tools. Give me your email and I'll tell you 3 of them free, but the 2 others will cost you."
Good luck with your endeavors, and thanks for the quick replies.
Ummmm... I think you have the wrong impression of this channel. I'm well aware of trading and "how it works". Good luck in your endeavors too. Cheers!
someone needs to make a GIF of you tossing the imaginary money. that was hilarious. Thanks for the vid.
hahaha... that'd be funny
I gave it a go. Let's see if it worked! j.gifs.com/pgj0VN.gif
haha yeah agreed. Had to watch that a few times
lol I agree!

You can start trading now get your parents to open you an account after you have done enough research.
BEST VIDEO I HAVE EVER SEEN FOR A BEGINNER IN THE TRADING WORLD! SHORT, STRAIGHT, TO THE POINT, AND BRUTALLY DIRECT! Love your stuff man!
Cheers! It's crazy how many people are offended by the video. You are the type of person who will succeed!
I cant even stress how much this video is refreshing
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed.

It sort of caught me by surprise by some of the people who get upset about this video because they don't hear what they want to hear.
Dude, ima FREACKING give you one of these 3 things once I succeed at trading and I'm halfway there to becoming a millionaire cuz I love your simple yet totally understood teachings which motivated me to pursue this field more seriously now that I've gathered more knowledge and courage to persist and not quit cuz of misinformation I received from pessimistic people in the past!

$25,000?!?!?!? Ugh.... I really should raise my prices lol
Noo... clay...plz don't raise ur fess.... haha.......
I don't understand people who dont' appreciate other people's videos. Don't watch them, its simple and take your time and energy where it belongs!
I find these super useful, great work and thank you :)
You're welcome. Thanks for the comment.

Thanks for the kind words Liz.
A little thought experiment.
Let's say you have a trader who come up with a strategy that makes 10% per day consistently.
They would be the richest person in the world, quite quickly.
I'm 20 yrs old now! My daily life is the same as what you said: studying, doing assignments, having a part-time job, and now I'm looking for something new and I found buying stocks is interesting. I can make money with it
Just be careful, the markets are addicting!!!
@@claytrader thank you! I know I have to be educated and put effort into it. I plan to join your class as soon as possible!!
@@khuehuynhphamgia7201 great! hope to see you sooner rather than later.
This is one of the best "stock trader" youtubers I've seen. Great video! Great and accurate representation of the learning process!
Thanks for the feedback.

How to start trading!!!!! Ill worry about getting a second job when i get started...Jesus man!!! How to cook an egg> First you got to get the chicken.....then a rooster.......I got the egg man!!!! Now how do i cook it?
That's great you have the egg. But please realize that just because YOU do, doesn't mean that everyone does. The world doesn't revolve around you... ya know?
Lmfao 🤣

"how to start trading" save some money and go to college, but I wont just tell you this, I will make a 12 minute video to explain these 2 simple things but I wont give any actual tips.
I gave THE MOST IMPORTANT TIP possible: get your mind right before you even start down the path.

this video is about what it takes....the sacrifices we would have to make to achieve our goals...i love this video
Cheers
This is real talk
No other way to approach it. Set expectations in line with reality.
No Pain no gain! That's true in every human endeavor. You have to work hard if you want to live a better life. I am fascinated by your articulateness and knowledge. Keep up the good work.
Cheers. Thank for the feedback.
i am not here to listen to what you have sacrifice. "How to get started trading" is the topic!!!
That's HOW you get started. You prepare yourself to sacrifice. Just because you don't like Step 1 doesn't mean that it is not valid.
ClayTrader I have to agree with you both, I came here to learn how to trade but i feel like the title of this video was a bit misleading. However, the things I've learned from this video have been quite valuable and I am glad I watched it. Good work man, I'm going to check out more of your stuff and subscribe!
Cheers and thanks for the feedback.
claytrader please do not care about them you are doing a great job here
99% of the viewers needed that reality slap in the face. Myself included. It is indeed a big part of getting started.
Former buckeye!!!! I'm a current buckeye and i'm loving your story and how you got started, funny thing is I'm doing the same exact thing right now,. Sleep, eat, class, study . Thanks for your time!
Go Bucks! What are you majoring in?
@@claytrader I'm in Fisher double majoring in Finance and Economics.
Awesome! Glad to hear you chose degrees with some practical uses.
This is twelve minutes of patronizing your audience. Most of us realize that trading stocks isn't a cakewalk. But honestly, if you imagine that you're speaking to some hippy-dippy, booze-drinking, game of thrones watching millennial, then you shouldn't make this channel. Those people don't normally give a dump about the market.
Your video can be summed up in one sentence:
"Making and keeping money is going to be hard if you have bad spending habits"
Thanks a bunch, Sherlock.
Thanks for the feedback. Given the other comment's I've gotten, I know it's help at least several people, so that makes it worth the time on my end. Take care.
I guess I shouldn't expect everything that shows up in TH-cam to be catered 100% specifically to me. I appreciate your willingness to educate. Sorry, sometimes I forget these comments are read by actual people. Keep up the good work, man. Don't let dumb-asses like me stop ya.
lol... cheers my friend. Your humbleness and NON Keyboard Warrior attitude is a breath of fresh air.
Cloud Galaxy you just made my day with that attitude ✨
Do you have a video on how to read stocks? Like how do we read the charts?
Lots and lots, here claytrader.com/takecontrol/
Play at speed of 1.8 thank me later
Your impatience is going to cost you a boatload of money in your trading. Fair warning.
LMAO
thats that short term pain lol
ClayTrader hahahahahah BUUUURN
ClayTrader you speaking slowly isn’t going to impact anything. Maybe just accept your teaching method is wrong rather than trying to disprove 30 peoples feelings
You are speaking facts. Your hand and facial gestures are off the wall; very funny. But regardless, you're speaking the truth. Keep schooling individuals and I enjoyed your video. Thanks again.
"off the wall"... "funny"... good! If I can mix that in to make the learning more enjoyable, then that's the goal! Thanks for the feedback.
What type of education (maybe other than college) would you recommend to take?
I'm biased, so I'm not going to sit here and give you some high pressure sales pitch, all I'll say is that if you enjoy the free content I have to offer on my site and on TH-cam, I can very confidently say that I'm sure you would find great value in my premium content/training. If interested, you can find my training courses here: claytrader.com/training/
Appreciate the reply. Will look into it, thanks.
You're welcome. Let me know if you have any questions.
A lot of this is very true.. Been trading almost 2 years. Mastering psychology and discipline is quite the journey.
Cheers and thanks for sharing.
1:04 “When all the strippers got you down to your last buck”
yup!
I greatly appreciate how you started off this video truthfully by going in depth about the mindset/philosophy you must have when going into trading. This mindset/philosophy is applicable to any field that anyone is trying to be successful; short-term pain.
Thanks!
ClayTrader no doubt. I was just laid off and I’m looking to get into trading, but I’m trying to gather free knowledge for now. I know eventually I’m going to need to double down on my knowledge and pay for courses and find a mentor. I’m going to watch a lot of your videos, but do you have any tips?
I like how honest you are😊. No pain no gain. I'm 20 and I am graduating college next week. I feel like college was a scam :/. Thankfully I am debt - free, but I do wish that I had worked more to save to trade.
Thanks for watching and thanks for the kind words!
bruh talking about beating a dead horse.. next vid
Bruh.... calm down.
This is the best video you can apply for all online business. I just got a new job so I can restart my Shopify store again. Everything in this video I did when I was making 200/ wk but found a new job more capital more opportunities. I hear you though just get up and do it emotions aside. This really sharpened my sword 🗡
Thanks for feedback. I'm glad you enjoyed!
This entire video could've been summed up in about three sentences. You're not wrong about what you're saying, but you have mislabeled the video (try something like "Trading 101: Requisite Mindset / Mental Preparation") and wasted 12 minutes for 200,000 viewers. More specifics and less soap box, please.
People don't remember a 3 sentence summary. People need to have these things driven home.
If you go to any finance university they will teach you those words in 3 hours and a half... be thankful
nathalie gerges plus it's for free
peoplearepeole / true
Im from the Philippines, 20 years old, I really wanna learn how it works 'coz life's tough here.
I'll be watching more of your videos ❤️
Welcome aboard!
Paraphrasing, he says "Don't rely on internet to get information, go to school" and says "90% of trader's fail." He got that second part from the internet...............................................
That was not a very good summary.
No where in my text did I call it a summary. At all.
Oh I see, your'e the type who leaves a comment and then clicks the thumbs up next to it immediately. lol... enough said.
You're the type to take the effort to respond to something that took less effort. Keep up, kiddo.
lol... and there it is again, you made a comment and then clicked your own thumbs up... lol... classic!
I love how you engage with your audience in the comments section.
I try my best!
OMG! Patronizing, waste of my time
Please calm down. You apparently missed the point. You better get your expectations in line with reality or you'll never have a chance at success. If you ALREADY have done that, then good for you, you are well ahead of many.
I've already started that journey by attending a coding bootcamp and living at my mothers house lmfao. I've been broke the last 2 years. But, it took 2 years of solid hustle, learning, applying, to get to where i am now and now I have a job paying me 80k. So, now I'm starting the process of learning this so I could do this part time while I'm doing the things I need to do. I've got a growth mindset. But, first I'm going to use paper trading and and online resources to have a solid foundation before buying any course or finding a community. I've got the time and patience to make it happen.
That's awesome!
useless vid. no real info. on how to trade
Amazing. You better get an attitude check - claytrader.com/videos/comparison-2-attitudes/
I was looking at trading myself and I have a bit of money and I like the warning that you give..I'm beginning to understand the difference between gambler and investor...
Great!
Im 15 right now, about 6 months ago i got my dad to setup a limited company which i am 100% shareholder in so its basically my company. I do lawn-mowing for elderly people mainly so its normally the same people i go to but i get new customers here and there. I managed to make a very large sum of money (even in this 6 months) from which i'm going to use to trade with then hopefully invest that money into creating a company which i can grow unlike a lawn-mower business. I am sharing this with you guys so if there are any other young people here they know its never too early to start doing this. In this case trading on the stock market.
Congrats Ben. Your work ethic will take you far.
I really liked this video. It confirms what I think I already knew but needed to hear it again. I'm 34 and I would love financial freedom not just for me but my family. I'm earning better money now and I'm going to start putting some away and build on my knowledge so hopefully one day my loved ones can prosper. God bless you.
Thanks for watching!
I feel like taking this guys advice might make me a little richer in the long run, but also turn me into a angry, no nonsense person that rarely smiles by age 50. I mean I'm pretty sure there are other ways to be successful in the stock market without being overly critical.
I smile plenty.
You are an amazing guy! I've just started your online courses. It feels amazing.
Great to hear!
Excellent. You sir are creating REAL investors.
Glad you enjoy!
True, i never went to any parties as well. I'd rather work on my goals than drink beers all night and watch how my classmates and all the other kids waste their life on nonsensical stuffs. It was all worth it. My classmates in high school married young while im working on my dreams. Now im learning trading thanks for this video and the links you provided.
Cheers to that!!!
As a beginner trading might seem a bit difficult so it is a good idea to do your own research,learn a trading strategy and take your decision
I agree.
All I have to say is your 100% right with short term pain and people complaining.
Thank you very much!

I like your style. A lot the whiny wimps tend to be the EMOTIONAL investors...opposite of what your raving audience is who is more HEAD than HEART tired of the feel-good positivity to spare hurting their delicate self with the straight-up real talk tough love needed. To all those whiny wimps, go somewhere else or don't even enter trading.
Cheers to that!
Can not wait for the live seminar Thursday January 16th. Definitely willing to experience short term pain. Very eager and excited. Clay you have taught me more in a few videos than any research I have done previously. Keep it up!! Very appreciative over here.
Great! I'll see ya soon! For those wondering about the live seminar (online that is), you can learn more and sign up here claytrader.com/1-hour-trader-transformation/
Thank you for being real that's why you will be successful 🙏 I'm learning Champ.
Cheers!
This! Thank you Clay, I currently have the same mindset of the young you (I'm in my late 20's) and I realized that I need something new to learn. And Trading comes to my mind 😊
You got this!
Thumbs up! Been watching this evening newsletter for a couple of days and I can say, it does help a lot. It's lovely👍👌
Glad it helps!
Wow! It was a heart warming feeling to hear that some of my traits are similar to yours. However, I lack a little discipline. I have a question. I work a part time job and I have productive hobbies on the side. To make any kind of profit from the stock market, A) How much time would you need? and B) How much money would you need to save to get started?
You could do swing trading and not need a whole ton of time. As far as how much? Watch this: claytrader.com/videos/much-money-need-trade/ (keep in mind though, like any "Job", you first need to properly learn what you are doing, so education comes first)
ClayTrader Thanks for the response! You've made many things a lot clearer. I appreciate it.
Your honesty is appreciated Clay.
Thanks
This dude is straight up . This is the kind of talk I need. Great vid 👍🏼
Glad you enjoyed. Thanks!
I respect you Clay, you bring hope. God bless you!
Thanks for the kind words.
I'm forever explaining this to my friends. One asked me the other day if I wanted to come to a concert. I said no, because of the money. I have debts, which are my priority. After that, It's your courses. Then, it'll be some more courses, because I like doing courses. It's taking me a while and it's been a bad couple of years as compared to the usual, but i'll get there. Persistence is insurance against failure.
Smart! Get those debts cleaned up first!
Nice to see a young guy like you speaking with such sense of responsibility.... wtg!!
Thanks!
perfect video! i am crazy new to trading with next to no money. i am a retired veteran with way to much time on my hands and i am looking for some to fill up my day that could pay out.
Thank you for your service! Good to know that you are well aware of the time commitment it will take.
Very motivational....I learned a lot from the few videos I watched that you had to offer. Thank you.
Thanks
You're awesome bro. Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
What would be good a starting capital? And what kind of education will one need? are you talking about book? Classes? Or perhaps major in college that guide that way? Thanks for your videos
Hi Daryl, give this a look claytrader.com/getting-started/
i would have just rolled the dice. luckily this video stopped me from doing something i would have regretted. Thank you!
Glad it helped! Well done on being honest with yourself. Self-awareness is a big key to trading.
I'm already in pain after watching your video haha, just thinking about what I need to do to get into trading. BUT also got me motivated to want to start trading. Thanks for the video.
Glad you are now motivated. Don't lose it!
This video has given me a very different perspective to trading. i completely agree with what Clay says in this video and i am going to apply what i have learnt in this video. thank you.
Thanks for the feedback Kyle. You'd probably enjoy this one too then claytrader.com/videos/the-painful-truth-about-day-trading-and-rule-1-to-get-started/
How much would be a good start up budget for trading. How much capital would I need in ur opinion to start. Including buying courses? Thanks
I'd encourage you to sign up for my (free) class I offer here claytrader.com/1-hour-trader-transformation/ this will be very helpful in regards to what you're asking.
Well, I came here to learn "how to get started with the trading" but I found the information even more helpful. Thanks for sharing and making this! Cheers! :)
Glad to hear! Thanks for the comment and having a mind that is "truly" open to learning.
Watched a couple of your videos and this is the one that got me to subscribe. Thanks for the mental adjustment per se
I appreciate the feedback. Thanks and welcome to the channel!
Great video man, people just do not want to face the harsh truth, keep up the good work!
You are 100% right. Thanks.
Thanks for the video! It's very helpful for the beginner like me.
Thanks for watching
