    When to call it quits

    Trading in itself is about risk. It is about managing risk, but more importantly before you can manage risk, you have to be psychologically prepared to handle whatever risk that you are taking on. But in another sense beyond the risk invoved in the trading, it could be argued that leaving a...

    Trading full-time -- 2nd job and other streams of income?

    As I have stated before, I live at the intersection of the Bible Belt, Corn Belt, and Rust Belt. The tattoos and the accompanying Harley Davidsons are a Rust Belt thingy.

    Mark to Market Meeting April 2

    When it comes to mark to market the horse is already out of the barn. Mark to market caused a downward spiral. If it had been suspended a year ago, then the severity of the current crisis might have been lessened. Once the downward spiral has occurred, the suspension of mark to market will not...

    Senate Begins Budget Debate

    http://www.cspan.org/Watch/watch.aspx?MediaId=HP-R-16916 Senator Conrad does the first hour. Conrad digresses a great deal about the ND flood instead of the budget. The first hour is worth skipping. Senator Gregg does the second hour. If you are looking for what will move the market...

    The United States of America Motor Company, Inc.

    You are a quite mouthy for a poster with less than ten posts to his name. The answer to your question is neither. Mr. Goodmonkeywrench was a play on words to a former fictional character who was part of GM ad campaign a few years back before you were born. I know your computer lab...

    The United States of America Motor Company, Inc.

    Grammatically speaking, monkey modified wrench. And throwing a monkey wrench into the works is what Washington elitists pass off as a Gubmint solution. I do not revert to calling my President a monkey, I leave that to MSM whores like Erin Burnett who referred to Bush as a monkey and he...

    Barry could do Gubmint Motors commercials. He could be the new Mr. Goodmonkeywrench.

    I am at a stage where I am writing a book, your input desired

    I shorted Prince Allaweed's deflating ego along with his deflating assets for awhile. But stupid me, I thought maximum ego deflation was reached by his sacred Citi holdings going from fifty something to under twenty. It just kept deflating and deflating. The last time I saw the guy, he...

    GM Wagoner steps down

    I do not think it is scapegoating as much as the Gubmint in the form of the administration preparing for a Barry bailout. Bailouts are getting harder for lying, cheating, scumbag politicians to shove down the public's throat. With that in mind, those elitist boys and girls in Washington...

    I am at a stage where I am writing a book, your input desired

    Well Hell's bells, my bad, you guys from Canadian do not even know what ego deflation is, having no first hand experience with such humilities.

    I am at a stage where I am writing a book, your input desired

    I am sure vanity publishing needs a stimulus just like every other business in America. As one American to another, I salute you for pumping what I am sure will be just a miniscule fraction of your trading profits into a business that is based on those with the biggest egos having the most...

    How small towns increase revenues

    <cite>Woodall said the town is also eliminating one full-time police officer position, which will save the town about $30,000 in yearly salary and benefits.</cite> They ought to hire 30 more police officers at that price, and subcontract them out to larger municipalities, where 30k a year...

    Sure I am not liked, but for a Black man I am OK, right

    Dude, this forum ain't the market. But the market and this forum have somethin' in common. The market don't care what color, gender, or sexual preference a trader is, the market is totally indiscriminate. You can beg the market to cut you some slack, but the market gives no slack...

    Look what CNBC did to Dylan Ratigan.

    The "commissioner" be king no more. The "emissary" be queen. Emissary was the title below Melissa Lee on tonight's show. She tried talking loudly for the opening, but loud talking women on television is rarity. Melissa will needs to study loud mouthes like Rosie O'Donnell and Joy Behar...

    Dylan Ratigan QUITS CNBS...

    My understanding of the premise of Fast Money was that the host talked fast and loud. I am not sure if the CNBC bench has any fast and loud talkers. Matt Nesto and Trish Reagan are neither. I say if they try want to replace Rattigan with a fast talking loud mouth, then there only choice...

    Trading full-time -- 2nd job and other streams of income?

    If you are an artsy craftsy kind of fella, it may be that body artist, just might meet those requirements. The tattoo parlors that I drive by seem to be open only at night. Tattooing would also seem to have a high level of interaction and you could meet new people. After all, you cannot just...

    Ratigan Quits CNBC?

    That is a distinction that is hard for me to make, because it seems to me when it comes to pompous asses, all three are major leaguers, in fact all three would make the MSM pompous ass All-Star Team. Of course, they have an inherent advantage being on a cable news network, they get more air time...

    Ratigan Quits CNBC?

    Rattigan has a point, I think. First, one must remember, that CNBC is the network the bills itself as "In Cramer We Trust". Rattigan senses he is not getting equal treatment to Cramer and Kudlow. CNBC is a sexist network in that it lets allows loud mouths know-it-all pompous asses like...
