The sharemarket is my hobby.
Once worked as a Food Technologist in QA, R&D, Project Management. Began investing as an at-home mother of 3 in 1996. These days I'm doing all sorts of bits and pieces in a small branch of a commercial flooring business.
I tried for a while to stay home and trade/invest "full-time" while the kids were at school, but found there was too much expectation from children/husband/mother/school that I was available to do anything and everything that nobody else wanted to do... so I have taken refuge in part time work and squeeze investing in around the edges. I would possibly make more money if I spent more time at home investing, but seem to remember it as pretty lonely and lacking in fulfilment. Then again, maybe that was because it was 2007-2008 when investing wasn't much fun anyway!:) Though I did manage to learn the violin to grade 3, tried jazz dance and even went to the gym regularly, so it wasn't all dull.
A few years ago I stopped being a sysadmin in the IT industry to study towards being a financial advisor. after I completed my diploma I have been loss adjusting Chch EQ business interruption insurance claims.
I finished that a few weeks ago
