  Say goodbye to regular paychecks. | 
 | 
  | 
  | 
 
  | 
  | 
   | 
   | 
  | 
  | 
  Substantial commission-reduction for members. |

  | 
  |

  No FDIC to bail you out on a bad day. | 
 | 
  | 
  | 
 
  | 
  | 
   | 
   | 
  | 
  | 
  You and only you control your fortunes; your abilities determine your success, not someone else's! You are the boss. | 
 | 
  | 
  | 
 
  |   | 
   | 
   | 
  | 
  | 
  Little or no sympathy on a bad day. | 
 | 
  | 
  | 
 
  | 
  | 
   | 
   | 
  | 
  | 
  You know where you stand at the end of each day. |

  Out trades or mistakes can be costly. | 
 | 
  | 
  | 
 
  | 
  | 
   | 
   | 
  | 
  | 
  The length of lunch hours and vacations is determined by you; no punching a time clock. | 
 | 
  | 
  | 
 
  |   | 
   | 
   | 
  | 
  | 
  Standing, sore throats, physical punishment. |
