Having a knack for investing will always stick with you, but while you are still in school you can get the proper academic background to become an energy trader. That's what I would recommend.

Thanks for all the solid advice guys, I appreciate it. I had no idea that Tulane had an Energy Finance program, I will defiantly have to look into that.

if you'll be an investor for a long time, you can afford to be conservative and just pick up an easy 6 or 7 or 8 % with little effort and little stress
I'm a young investor and I work in financial services. Please tell me how I can generate a consistent effortless 6-8% annually. You will make me a very wealthy man with very happy clients.

i'm assuming he's saying that in the context of not going for the 'homerun' while you're young like lots of people recommend for young investors

Just to play devil's advocate here, you practically could have picked any stock over the last couple years and made a great return.

I get that, but I outperformed the market by a considerable amount. I did tons of research and homework on my stocks and they performed very well.

Ill pay you $50 to manage my accounts next year

Broad index and a collection of dividend payers.
Possibly not 8% every single year, but pretty close annualized over the long haul. Of course if you're selling advice and collecting commissions, you might not appreciate the client's not churning his account for you.

I am a big believer in indexing. Roughly 70% of my investments are in various indexes with the rest being invested in blue chip firms.
I don't work for commissions, thanks for the attempted knock on my profession though.
