who might be the oldest person actively using and winning on BF.
Any of you prepared to admit that you are, or perhaps you know some who are, in the 80s and upwards ( say) who are active on here, looking for new ideas/edges, even botting up if and when appropriate.
After al we can't all be young eager beavers ( like Investor ).

I can remember reading a thread, obviously it could be total rubbish, of a bloke in his eighties falling asleep at his computer with a large position open and when he woke from his nap his money had gone. He decided it was time to retire from the exchanges Silly

Zipper's a babe in the woods.
I'm talkin' old.
There must be quite a few.
Look at the Warren Buffets of this world. Still coining it at a relatively very advanced age. And no he doesn't delegate it all off to others younger.

I think Zipper is in his 80's even though he say's 60's, not that it's any of my business, fair play to him I say keep it up.

Never mind keep it up! I bet he can't even get it up at his age.Cry

Not having a pop, zip...just that i'm clueless with IT in my early 40s and accept the youngsters are streets ahead of me in that respect...if those twice my age are ahead of me too, i would really have to consider my position!

I must be getting old and senile then.
This Harry R stuff is beyond my feeble mind.
Report viva el presidente! January 21, 2011 7:52 PM GMT
iirc, it was the biggest next manager market in the history of BF. 8 figures traded.

harry's unequivocal statement that he wouldn't be going back mysteriously failed to deter some massive punts going  down on him, some at eye-watering prices.
