The stock broker, a stepping stone to being an investment banker. A successful young stockbroker spends hours upon hours trading with his eyes glued to the computer monitor. There is a lot of analysis, perspectus researching and gut instinct shorting. "Successful" is the key word, being a stockbroker is not enough, it merely buys him the right to talk at an after 5:00pm function but "success" is the difference between talking and walking. This game is not for everybody therefore skills have to be keen and reliant because there is nothing like trying to "catch a falling knife".
