    Corey, Good luck to you, it seems that you've decided to ride that tide to fortune. Is it NYC you're moving to? That's an idea - although illegal, it's feasible - I used to live in the states for one year, and my buddy lives at the same address that's on my SSN. What about the tax...

    Oooops, sorry for slugging at your site Don (if you see this). What I meant is I think it could use some revamping.

    Qwik, Indeed it's a tough call, and it'll take time to decide. I'm not really sure yet how far I want to go with this, so I'll just wait it out, read a lot, save, and go where my heart takes me. It's brought me here, and that's a start (this is my all time 1st in a chatroom of any...

    Yo Neo! Thanks for the pointers, I'll go over them one thing at a time and I'll let you know how I liked them. Thanks for offering to help - I'll take you up on that. As you can see, Duff (who seems to be Canadian - are you?) knows that American brokers won't take Canadians on - in that...

    Wow, thanks for the input guys (one of the reasons I joined is because it looked like a decent and friendly community). Kirk: So that's that for the get-rich-quick scams - to me, they ceased to exist. As far as waking up early goes, I was planning on a gradual shift from 8 am (that's what...

    For the true novices

    Hi all, Indeed I have been asleep for a long time... Until recently I had a very foggy idea of what the stock markets were and how stocks were traded. I knew people made money with that, but having just finished school I was too busy paying my debt. Through a twist of fate I attended...
