    do you watch the news while you trade?

    Every now and then CNBC offers a little golden nugget of news. Insana and Santelli are informative. However the station's theme music and endless stream of commercials are too annoying for background noise. I stopped watching tv in the office.

    The greener pastures of Dell Coupons

    The two are nothing alike. The purpose of my thread was to see if someone had similiar experiences as I did and were able to game the system. If I find $250 lying on the floor, I pick it up. The cost of trying eventually makes it not worth the aggrevation. I'm out. Continue splitting...

    The greener pastures of Dell Coupons

    I complain because I don't like to waste money. Any trader can relate to that. I have had numerous occaisons where the retailer has honored a coupon. HD, for example... I bot a table saw and it went on sale soon afterward (w/in a week). HD refunded the difference. These dell coupons...

    Taking Profits from the House

    Very true, look how early Greenspan was with his irrational exuberance comment. Selling now is certainly a weighty decision. They say u never go broke taking profits, but who's to say I won't be priced out in 2 yrs and looking for a house in Newnan , Ga. But to be liquid and cherry picking...

    Taking Profits from the House

    Ricter, I think Krugman has a point. My area is way too hot right now. Its not San Diego, its Tampa for crissake and the only ones driving the Carreras are the developers. I cant see how the mkt can support these prices. If everyone is talking real estate, then its time to exit.
