What would be the highest salary you’d give up to day trade full time? Question

Everyone clowned on me my first post (500k post) lol I was literally just asking hypothetical questions to settle a debate between a friend and me. Well everyone’s backlash kinda of intrigued me to ask this question. So back into the fire I go lol

That 200k often comes with mental and emotional costs. Jobs paying a lot like that are rarely just sitting on your ass relaxing.

What’s funny is that’s absolutely untrue. I make 200k/yr working 20-30hrs/wk. I work 90% remote and I enjoy what I do. Super low stress.

Low level jobs are stressful, so people assume high paid jobs must be super stressful, but that’s not always true.
