How Traders Can Be "Hungrier" (Without Being Dishonest)


Awards 2013

In Episode 288 of The Traders Podcast, your host Rob Booker tries out his new Microsoft Surface and gives us a report on how he likes it. This leads Rob to a conversation about companies that seem to be hungrier than their competitors — stopping at nothing to be a force to reckon with in the marketplace through extreme tactics and sheer desire. Rob talks about what happens when a trader becomes similarly determined and committed. As an example of a hungry trader, Rob cites Traders Podcast listener Calvin. Next Rob lists what traders can do to be “hungrier,” without being dishonest. You won’t want to miss this one! Join us!
