$100 - $1000 per month ($1k up is comfortable/VERY comfortable)
Asia (the Philippines) + experience +$500 = trading for a living
the longer equation would be
Asia + (ideal/comfortable) personal circumstance + experience + $500 (up to $10k) = trading for a living
think of it like this:
kangaroo meat in Philippines? unheard of.
kangaroo meat in Australia? as food?(i hope im correct, LOL)
again, $500 - $10k account: it's not for most people
