Face-to-face service of a securities company. What are the benefits of using it?

Hello, this is Koyama.



The Kishida administration’s “listening power”

has been frequently highlighted, hasn’t it.



Prime Minister Kishida himself, on the day of the leadership election,

also promoted the “listening power.”



Since the new cabinet has just been formed,

we don’t know yet what kind of politics will unfold,

but I only hope that politics that listen to the voices of the people will be pursued.



By the way, I have a song I recall

when it comes to “listening to people.”



It’s Takeshi Takahashi’s

“Hey there, kid,”



Please pay attention to the lyrics as you listen.



And personally, about “listening to people,”

what I think ultimately is that

more important than simply “listening”

is having the ability to think for yourself.



No matter what you hear,

don’t swallow it whole;

think for yourself properly.



Otherwise you will surely regret it somewhere down the line.



Recently, a student from the Stock Market Academy

t said,

“Before joining Stock Market Academy,

I bought a certain stock… and



I’m sad about it.”When asked,

“I bought a stock recommended by a well-known analyst,

I ended up losing a lot, and I regret buying it.”

That was the story.



“Because it was recommended by a famous person, it must be trustworthy.”

She was carried away by the “authority.”



If she had thought for herself,

things might have turned out differently.



I understand.



In a world of unpredictable trading,

it’s natural to want to cling to someone for help.



Many would think, “If I buy this stock, I’ll be fine—push me forward.”

That may be what many people think.



However, if you rely on others, you will never reach stable profits.

Profits from fees

“Are you interested in our face-to-face support service?”



“Recently, I got a call like this from a securities company.”

Another student was saying.



It’s a common sales call.



They say professional dedicated staff will offer advice.



What do you think?

When you hear, “A pro will give you advice,”

you might think, “This might be good.”



But if that’s what you think, there’s something I’d like you to consider.





Is the person giving advice actually profitable in trading?

That is, are they earning profits?





If you could get direct advice from someone who is profitable, it would be worth considering.





But, in reality, that’s not necessarily clear.



You aren’t shown proof of profits, after all.



Basically, the advisers are

employees of the securities company.



They are not professional traders.



The advisers are not professional traders, but

professionals who earn profits from commissions.



Since the business model is to earn profits from commissions,

whether the client can leave profits is

secondary to the concern.



As a professional trader,

you are not being trained or developed.



You are free to use such services, but

even if you’re a trading beginner and not making profits

you would not sign up for such services from the securities company.







However,

some people may still feel they are worth it.





For example, those who just want someone to listen.

Trading is a solitary task.





Whether in times of hidden gains or hidden losses, it is basically done alone.





There are quite a few people who feel lonely when there’s no one around with whom to talk about trading.







For such people, simply being heard might be an advantage.





“Just being heard can ease mental well-being.”

and.



But if you want to talk to someone, wouldn’t it be healthier to make friends?







Without paying money or having conflicts of interest

it’s better to have a pure, enjoyable conversation with a friend

that will surely bring peace of mind.

The number of decisions a person makes in one day

＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝


On another note, the number of decisions a person makes in a day is generally

said to be “9,000 times.”



There are various theories,

some say 30,000 or 35,000 times, but



whatever the case, we are

constantly making a substantial number of decisions daily.



Suppose we make 9,000 decisions in a day.



If sleep is 7 hours and we are active for 17 hours a day,



then we are making about 600 decisions per hour,

about 10 decisions per minute.



The brain works vigorously unconsciously,

and repeats decisions,

so we don’t consciously notice many of them,



but given how busy we are making decisions,

it’s natural to instinctively want to “delegate decisions to someone else.”





However, in trading

once you delegate decisions to others, there is no future.



If you don’t think properly under your own responsibility,

you will never reach solid profits.



So today,

I’ve presented a common,

but extremely important theme of



“thinking with your own head.”Thank you for watching until the end.
