Often trading the share market is compared to gambling. Whilst I understand that in some peoples minds this is true for them, what I don’t understand is why many close themselves off to find out about the opportunities that investing in the share market  brings.

Learning to trade the share market is a journey, and those without the education are often termed the gamblers, whereas it is those who take time to understand the Australian share market and how to trade the share market who reap the rewards.

Blake one of our bright young stars here are Wealth Within has just recorded an excellent podcast on the issue of gambling and share trading. I think it is his best podcast by a country mile, and thought I would put a link here so you can all listen to it.

Wanting to learn how to trade? Then share market forums are not the place to go. Before you visit websites with the idea of finding out what shares to buy and sell or getting share market trading tips, I urge you to think again. There is no such thing as a free lunch, and attempting to learn to trade from free website will cost you.

I have never met a full time successful trader t hat frequents forums, therefore learning to trade the Australian share market from chat forums is fraught with danger, let me explain…..

After having recently recording a podcast series on share market forums, today I read an article in a blog from SmartCompany.com.au about one company taking action against a share market forum Hot Copper. This article highlighs why I have concerns over the information available in these websites.
