Rob Booker is a foreign currency trader who trains traders around the world to be more disciplined & profitable. Before finding his true calling in the Forex, Rob “practiced” law, printed t-shirts, sold magazines, taught Italian, recruited CPAs, started an advertising firm, ran an e-commerce company and roofed houses before he realized that he was better at getting jobs than he was at staying with them. I’ll let you also know that Rob was fired from every job he ever got!

Consumed with the question of why he was working at jobs that he didn’t like — and how to move past those jobs into a career that brought him true happiness — and the ability to play video games, watch movies, and chat with people around the world while attempting to build an empire of wealth beyond any mortal’s ability to imagine, Rob talked to people across the country and around the world. When he met a group of successful Forex traders, he learned everything he could, then started a full-time career trading currencies.

Rob now maintains a Forex advisory practice close to home. He has been called the “Motley Fool of Foreign Exchange” and the “Prime Minister of Pips”!
