A day in the life...

    Hey guys, I'm a student studying a BA in general Business, and when i'm done i'd like to be involved directly or indirectly with stocks markets and the stock exchange. But as a career choice it ain't really shown in the media as such, so i don't have a very clear picture of how a day in the life of a stock broker or person who plays the stock market would go like. Basically i'd like to make lots of money when i leave college, so why not just cut the chase and go to the source.

    So for those of you who live from playing the stock market or even part timers, just give me a run down of the kinda work you do each day.

    I've been looking at possibly a career with davy, what are the salaries like there? I'd like to work with them and earn as much experience as possible and maybe when i'm a little older just invest all my money and play the stock market and life off that.
