Hello Everyone,
I am Rahul, a software engineer who is soon gonna turn 30 and who loves creating beautiful web experiences. I graduated in the year 2012 and since then (till early 2020) I tried a lot of different things in software engineering. But today before signing up on this forum, I've already left the SE field for good and now committed to try my best to become a full-time trader.
It's not that I am not happy with my job or not earning well enough (I became an IT engineer by following my passion and my last drawn salary was INR 120k per month which is sufficient for me & my small family) but my urge to shift from software industry to trading is because deep inside me resides a philanthropist and an entrepreneur who wants to retire early and do something for humanity and I know that while working on a 9 to 5 setup won't ever let me do that. Hence I am trying a bet here.
I haven't done much calculations yet, but I know that if things go down south, I will still have an option to go back to my normal SE job. I am sure many of you will think that here comes another maniac who is over enthusiastic about his plans or is simply mad who is risking his well-settled job but you must also know that every successful human being, dead or alive; has taken such mad decision at some point in life to achieve what they're known for.
I am looking forward to hear your thoughts on it and do tell me how you see this, is it a gamble I am doing with my life or its a brave decision taken by me?
I don't know how can I utilize this website to its best, but I will try to update this thread with my progress in this journey.
Cheers!
