WSO is the family that i lost at birth which i have rediscovered

I finally found my lost long fellow primates

2 years back my cousin was trading derivatives and he once gave me a newspaper to read it was WSJ

when I started reading it every morning my interest in business, finance and capital markets grew exponentially and soon I made an account at IBKR and then I started trading derivatives and soon I started making money, I read more books from David Swensen to peter lynch to the CFA course work and at the moment I am a few months away from 18th birthday and now I am working on target schools closest to wall street 

I started playing golf, tennis and poker  so it would help me network in the  future, I started to watch bloomberg regularly and I am already making amazing money and my cousin gave me more money to scale my brokerage account and aggravate my L/S strategy in the Technology sector 

when I came on this platform after reading a few discussions from the past 2 days  I instantly felt I belong here 

I just wanted to say that there should be counsel for new chimps
like what would the best suit be, like what  would the best haircut be, the best cartier watch (not the feminine one), how to order food, how to conduct oneself, our vernacular  and how to eat on dinner tables and what types of shoes  should we wear, our tiepins, the colour of our ties in addition to that what type of alcohol should we drink and what kind of opera should we listen to

a general guide on how should we build ourselves from the core to be a pure pedigree banker and a hereditary money manager and most importantly how should our attitude to the outside world be?
