Attended a briefing session on trainee forex dealer program that was on the Classified job section two weeks ago.
They advertised the program like a proper trainee program but.. my skeptic side has suspected that it was another forex trading course, which is no different from those internet marketing courses I encountered back then.
And so it was.
Asked my friend who is in forex dealing department in a Japanese bank to give his comments. He thought the program was very good.
And the presentation was convincing.
I seriously think of joining.
But I have issues with few things. First and foremost- the fact that they are not being open with the fee that comes with the program. they advertised the stuff like a job opening whereas in fact.. they are looking for business. The way they trick people into coming to their presentation showed one thing: lack of integrity.
They may truly have competence and good track records but.. a teacher who lacks integrity can only produce a student who lacks integrity.
And the second problem is.. their ambiguous company. No office, no clear introduction of the who's who.. anyone with proper intelligence would doubt their credential.
And finally.. the law of alchemy- the equivalent sacrifice thingy.
that in order to create or gain something, you need to bring equal sacrifice as a trade-off.
More and more.. we are seeing ways that promise you way to become millionaires in short period. Stock, option, forex trading.. internet marketing.. MLM.. whatever.
But I have come to conclusion that in life.. it just doesn't work that way.
All those 'highways' requires sacrifice.. be it our time, sanity, or integrity- one way or another. If you want it fast, you gotta give more, lose more.
And at the end of the day.. we gotta decide what's the most important stuff we want to do.. and do it.
The guy who did presentation on the forex trading course said:
"master this skill.. earn good income.. and then decide what you want to do in life."
The biggest mistake in life.. the deferred life plan- as "the monk and the riddle" put it.
good income should never lead the life itself.
it should follow.. and never lead.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever. - Psalm 23
