I've really enjoyed the TT education series. The Beginners course was a great review and I found the two series on Managing a Large/Small Account useful as well. I'm optimistic about successfully trading, but still not sure managing an options account is a better use of time than reviewing PPMs for passive CRE deals. Time will tell...
