026: Brad Jelinek – How to Overcome ‘Boom & Bust' Cycles and Achieve Longevity w/ a Seasoned Futures Trader

At a young age some people want nothing more than to be a trader, well this weeks guest is one of those people… Brad Jelinek first started dabbling in stocks during his days in junior high, then from college he went straight into a Chicago prop firm. Thirteen years later, Brad is with the same firm and predominately trades futures. So during our conversation, I of course asked Brad a bunch of questions around prop trading, and futures related topics, which he responded with many outstanding answers. But the part I found to be really interesting, was listening to Brad talk about health ‘n wellbeing, and the emphasis he has on longevity in this business. So if you plan on sticking around, and really want to make something of your trading career, I suggest you pay extra close attention to this segment.
