base earn earning incredibly less market million pay traders volatile
When traders were able to earn a million dollars, of which base pay was $150,000 to $200,000 and the rest was bonus, they would go for it. Now if you're sitting there earning $600,000, you become less risk-seeking. And if you have less risk-seeking, the ability of the market to be incredibly volatile is increased.
money
I enjoy giving money away. The more you give, the more you get.

For me, I get immense pleasure out of giving. I do what I can. I try and give around 10% of my earnings a year. Some years, I give more, some I give less.

From my early school days, I was brought up with the belief that we have a duty to use our talents, to volunteer and to make a contribution.
