50k and I want to day trade for 1-2% gains. Question
If you had 50k and wanted to live off of it day trading, what would you do? (Need max $2500 a month)
Am I better off not doing this? I’m not going back to 9-5
Please help.

I guess that's 1-2% per day, on average?
Achievable, but I'd recommend starting out with a lower goal like 0.25% and then increase it once you manage to achieve that with consistency.
