Нещо по темата, предполагам сте чели интервюто на Richard Dennis от Market Wizards, той прави от 400$ 200 000 000$ . Така че възможно е. Ето увода му ако има желаещи мога да го пейтна цялото, по ръка ми е.
Richard Dennis became intrigued by commodity trading during the late 1960s, while earning the minimum wage as a runner on the exchange floor. In the summer of 1970, he decided to take a crack at trading on his own, and with $1,600 borrowed from his family, he purchased a seat on the Mid America Exchange.
The Mid Am, as it is called, is a kind of minor league exchange because it trades pint-sized versions of the contracts traded on the major exchanges. The Mid Am tends to attract the business of small hedgers and speculators for whom a single regular-sized contract represents too large a position. As a fledgling trader with little risk capital, the Mid Am was well suited to Dennis—it was also the only exchange on which he could afford a seat.
The seat cost Dennis $1,200, leaving him a scant $400 for trading. Incredible as it may seem, he eventualy transformed that tiny stake into a fortune, which has been estimated by some to approach $200 million. As his father is reported to have said, in what must be one of the grand understatements of all time, "Let's just say Richie ran that four hundred bucks up pretty good."
Although Dennis has been exceptionaly successful over the long haul, he has withstood a few dramatic setbacks. He was in the midst of one such downturn at the time of our interview. Several of the public funds managed by Dennis lost enough during the late 1987-early 1988
period to trigger the 50 percent loss cutoff point for the cessation of trad-
ing. Dennis' personal account witnessed a similar fate. As he expressed in a letter to investors, "These results parallel immense losses in my own personal trading."
Perhaps one of Dennis' most impressive traits as a trader is his ability to weather such hard times with little emotional impact. Ap-
parently, he has learned to accept such sporadic large losses as part of the game. His confidence during such periods remains unshaken, as he believes he will eventually rebound if he stays true to his basic trading strategy. Had I not known, judging by the mood and confidence of the man I interviewed, I would sooner have guessed that he had just made a small fortune rather than lost one.
Whatever the stereotype image of a centimillionaire may be, Den-
nis does not fit it. His low-spending lifestyle is legendary. In fact, his only real extravagances are his sizable political and charitable contribu-
tions. His political views also do not mesh with the popular image of the very rich. Dennis is the founder of the Roosevelt Center for
American Policy Studies, a liberal think tank, and he supports the con-
cept of higher tax rates for wealthy Americans. In ecent years, he has taken an increasingly active role in the political sphere, supporting a variety of liberal candidates. Unlike trading, his win-loss ratio in politics has been disappointing. In the 1988 presidential race, Dennis was the national cochairman for the Babbitt campaign.
In drawing up a list of candidates to be interviewed for this project, Dennis was an essential name. He is one of the foremost trading legends of our time—a trader that a number of others interviewed in this book cited with the phrase, "I'm not in his league."
In setting up the interview, I dealt with one of Dennis' assistants.
After explaining the project to him, he told me he would talk to Dennis
and get back to me. About one week later, I received a call informing
me that Dennis could see me on a date about one month forward for ex-
actly one hour. I explained that I was coming to Chicago for the primary
purpose of interviewing Dennis and that one hour was hardly enough
time to cover all the essential areas. The response essentially was: that
was al the time allotted; the implicit message: Take it or leave it. I
agreed, hoping that I would get some more time if the interview was
going well.
I arrived about five minutes before the appointed time and was ushered into a large but decidedly unpretentious office. Dennis arrived precisely on the hour, shook hands politely, and sat down at his desk. He apologized in advance if, in the course of the interview, he occasional-
ly glanced at the quote screen, explaining that he could keep his mind on the interview at the same time, and would signal me if he had to put in any orders. Having the experience of trading myself (albeit on an in-
finitesimally smaller scale), I explained that I understood.
As the interview began, there was an element of unease on both our parts. In my case, I had a sense of a ticking clock with not enough time to accomplish the task at hand. In the case of Dennis, I believe it was a matter of a genuinely shy personality, at least in terms of a first meeting. After five to ten minutes, the tension was gone, the atmosphere became relaxed, and the conversation flowed smoothly.
Forty-five minutes into the interview, I began to think that things were going so well that Dennis would continue our conversation beyond the allotted hour. At exactly ten minutes before the end of the hour, my ilusion was shattered. "I've only got about ten more minutes," he said, "so if there's still stuff that's important you may want to get to it." I shuffled through my index cards and quickly tried to identify some of the key questions I had not yet covered. Precisely at the end of the hour, Dennis said, "That's about all the time I have, thank you."
One segment of questions I did not get to dealt with the political
side of Dennis' experiences. These topics included the Senate hearings
on alleged manipulation of the soybean market by Dennis, the Roosevelt
Institute, and the various political figures Dennis had known. Although
these subjects were certainly areas of interest and color, they were not
pertinent to the primary focus of this book. Consequently, I chose ques-
tions related to trading before attempting to turn to anything politically
oriented.
At the end of the interview, I played my final card by saying, "I didn't even get to any questions related to the political side." "They're not interested in that anyway," Dennis replied as he politely said good-
bye and left the office.
About six weeks later, I requested and obtained a follow-up inter-
view with Dennis. The portion of the interview dealing with the budget deficit problem and Dennis' large losses in his public fund trading at that time came from this second meeting.

Eстествено, че е възможно. И не е само той, който е направил такова нещо.
И едно допълнение, неговите 400$ са сегашни над 2000$. А с 2000$ могат да се правят наистина чудеса![]()
