Well, if the 10% correction happens in 1 day, your account will head toward zero pretty fast, as the short calls will barely offset the losses on the short puts.

so you're telling me that if you had a discussion with an ugly woman about nuclear fusion and plasma physics, you'd get horny and want to bang her right afterwards? ok be my guest. but i'll take the gorgeous stupid woman since you don't want her.

I've built 30+ (for myself and for others), and the key is to get top notch components, especially the motherboard. otherwise the computer will suck. even if you buy good components, there's still a chance you'll have compatibility issues with hardware or drivers, and some stability problems...

what makes a woman sexy is her face and body. If she has both, she is already sexy. Intelligence doesn't make her sexier. If she has brains she would be a more complete package but not a sexier package.

Man, I guess I have different taste than guys here but I don't find a 45-ish woman very attractive. Maybe 20 years ago she was a hottie but not now. You guys can have her.

ick, certainly you can do better

Maybe $600/night is a lot to you, but to someone else it's chump change. How do you know the people staying in that resort are living beyond their means? After all, you stayed there. These days I never stay in anything less than a 5-star hotel. So what if it costs $150 more? I'm not...

This is the common excuse but it's not true. The affordability index of the US isn't that much higher than it was 50 years ago, yet there are far more 2-income households now. The second income is needed to pay for a nanny and dining out (you need to dine out when you dont know how to cook)...

While I feel sorry for the borrower (for trusting the lender too much), I think these situations need to be allowed to play out without govnt intervention. The mortgage broker in this case was a greedy SOB and will get off scott free more or less, since it doesnt appear they commited a crime...

I dated a girl who was on a student visa (not even a green card) and she applied for and received a credit card. however, illegals can't legally get credit because they don't have a SSN. the only way for them is to fake the SSN.

One's desirability has nothing to do with the fact most American women are fat. Your 'desirability' equation is oversimplistic and not even relevant for many women. Some women put religion ahead of all 4 of those. Others put power at the top. I would say loyalty and honesty are ahead of...

I don't know why people spend $3k on a trading computer. Is it the desire to buy expensive toys that do 10x as much as you need? My trading computer is a 8-year old machine that wouldn't even fetch $20 on ebay (not including the monitor, which might be worth $100). If I were to buy a new one...

American women are too fat, too selfish and expect too much for what they offer. The most important thing to them is making money and their career. Every family woman I know works and has her kids raised by a nanny or grandparents. Is that what you call parenting? I know one of them who is...

This reminds me of the enthusiasm when Couch was drafted. We know how that turned out. Also reminds me of Courtney Brown. Cleveland gave up next year's 1st rounder for Quinn. Looks like the Cowboys will be picking first overall.

The only people who are saying the real estate market has turned around are the perpetually-optimistic folks in the real estate field. Those clowns never take off their rosy-colored glasses. They're lying because things are bleak and they want to prop up sales. I wonder how many agents have...

Actually i haven't had many reliability issues with TWS or the data feed. Sure i'll get the occasional pinkout, but it's rare like several times a year. but as others have said, once you get the pinkout TWS has trouble recovering. You usually have to close it and restart it.

This is how this will play out: Contestant gets cocky, thinking that gambling--err, trading-- with play money is the same as real money. Contestant borrows money from family and credit cards, and trades for real, on margin. Contestant-turned-trader loses everything in 6 months...

One thing I'd like to add is... I don't think a high PE is a reliable indicator of an imminent crash. But I think a low PE is a reliable indicator that a crash WON'T happen. Unfortunately, where it stands now the SP500's PE is not a useful indicator for anything.

I don't know if they're showing the forward PE or the TTM PE, but I'm guessing it's the latter. The TTM P/E was 24 just before the 87 crash, and 33 before the 2000 crash, and its all-time high was ~37 in July 1999. There isn't a correlation between magnitude of a crash and the PE. Also...

Can you imagine going on a date with a woman for the first time, and she shows up in one of these? haha.. I guess it'd be her way of saying, hands off. but I don't think many women who would wear this. All the women I know are fashion conscious and this probably wouldnt appeal to them
