So what do you do when it comes to investing? Let's talk about that and more right now. Hey, traders, Andrew Mitchem here at the Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 376. My latest bank statement Now, I've received a letter here from Lloyds bank over in the UK. I had a account when I was a kid with Lloyds. Still continue to have one there for when we go to Europe for holidays, not sure when that's going to be happening next either right now with coronavirus. But anyway, what I wanted to talk about was on here, it says my interest rate will be changing to 0.01 gross interest paid quarterly. How exciting is that? A 0.01% interest, it's incredible. It costs them more to send me the letter to New Zealand than they're going to pay me in interest. What are your options? It comes back to what are you going to do about that? Because interest rates throughout the entire world are obviously falling, and it sounds great if you want to borrow, but of course, getting money and borrowing is actually getting harder as well. You just think about commercial property, why would you want to jump into commercial property right now when office blocks throughout the whole world are empty because more and more people have actually worked out that they can work from home? Exactly like I'm doing right now behind you here. But people don't need to be travelling to work like they used to. Sure, it will come back a little bit, but the actual having to be at the office, having to be at work, businesses are figuring out that it's actually cheaper, of course, not to be renting, leasing or owning so much space. So therefore, as the investor, why would I want to go out there rushing to buy office space or anything like that when the actual occupancy rates are probably going to be a lot, lot lower. Continuing to do what we’ve always done So it comes back to, for me as a trader, I'm just continuing to do what we've always done. Why? Well, because it works. Why? Well, because what other options do we have out there that can actually beat what Forex can offer? Client from Germany making 2.5% to 4% per week Now, I also wanted to talk to you about an email that I've got here from a client in Germany called Sedat. And he says, "Andrew, it's been exactly one year, one month and eight days since I started trading according to the Forex Trading Coach system with you. Since then, I've only had positive months and only three or four negative weeks." He says, "I'm not yet a full time trader, but I'm on my way to becoming one." He also said, now this is interesting, "Few people realise that you can learn this business." Sorry. "Few realise that you have to learn this business for many years before you can really succeed. No one can become a doctor in two months, but many people believe that you can become a trader in only a few months." And he goes on to say, "I myself, make 2.5% to 4% profit per week and only trade the one hour charts. I trade with great passion and dedication. If I can't trade for day, I'll almost get psychological withdrawal symptoms with a smiley face. I think without absolute passion, no one can become a successful trader." So that's from Sedat over in Germany.
