Clara Fers, how you can combine trading and family.
Many men believe that a woman has no place on the stock exchange; even more are confident that blondes are not capable of doing anything serious.
Clara Fers was able to prove the opposite; she not only became a trader, but also headed one of the largest exchanges in the world as CEO.
At the same time, Clara can still successfully combine work with family life and sports; at the moment she only works until 12 noon.
The first half of the day is enough for her to analyze the market and make a decision on opening a new transaction or closing existing ones.
Trading and a career did not at all prevent Clara from having time to marry her husband, have three children and regularly play sports, which will serve as an excellent example for men who never have time for their family.
How did Clara Fers manage to make a career, and even start a family?
Clara was born in 1957 into a German family who moved to Canada before the outbreak of World War II. The family was far from poor; the father had an aluminum production business, which brought in a lot of money during the war.
The first place of work was the company Philips and Drew, and the girl immediately received the position of a trader working at the commodity exchange.
Several years of successful work allowed Clara Fers to rise to the very top and take the position of company manager.
After this, considering that she would not be able to achieve anything more in this position, she went to work at a branch of the Credit Lyonnais bank as one of the directors.
And he makes a real revolution by introducing a new approach to the bank’s exchange operations. And finally, the peak of her career was her appointment in 2000 to the post of CEO of the London Stock Exchange.
Exchange trading
While Clara's career was rapidly going uphill, she did not stop simultaneously engaging in stock trading, earning her fortune.
Back in 1973, when she was only sixteen years old, she was admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange.
It is clear that this was not only her merit, but also the influence of her father’s connections. Futures became her favorite assets ; they brought stable profits for decades.
The basis of her strategy was constant monitoring of the market; according to Clara Fers, one should never relax and be lazy, since in the case of working as a trader, this is very expensive.
At the moment, the fortune of one of the most successful traders and an even more successful manager is estimated at tens of millions of pounds.
And Clara believes that the main reasons why she managed to achieve success in her career and family life are strict adherence to the schedule and maximum self-organization.
Only the ability to manage time correctly will help you achieve everything you want.
