One of my goals to own a Les Paul guitar. However, I never knew what an impact he had on music in general. One night while trading was slow, I searched Hulu for a good movie and found this documentary on Les Paul. I was amazed at what he had accomplished in his life, but even more impressive was his way of thinking. He was a genius but he was also an independent thinker and that is why he was able to come up with so many inventions and such beautiful music. Even at 90 years old, he was still up on stage, making jokes and playing jazz.
I think there are some correlations to trading that can be taken away from this movie. Becoming a successful trader really has to do with thinking independently, being willing to try new things and keep up with technology. If your trading is slow, I would highly suggest it. Note: once the actual movie starts (not the commercials) move your mouse over the movie and click the square in the upper right corner to go to full screen.
