    Jokes 2

    Yeah, doesn't post in the jokes thread except to bitch like an old wife about the quality of jokes. Geez. But here's a golden oldie: A priest, a rabbi and a cop walk into a bar. The bartender looks at them and says "What is this, some kinda joke?"

    Prizewinner in a sweepstakes.

    Yep on cc, especially since I just noticed the OP referred to intperpolating a table rather than using math. Either our understanding of the question is incomplete or none of the answers are correct with 21.6% being the most likely choice. Once you assume there's an error in the question or...

    Prizewinner in a sweepstakes.

    Yeah, 21.5 :) (e^(21.52. . .)) -1 = ~19.5% Whoops, that's backwrds. Too much crap going on. Reverse it: (e^(~19.5)) -1 = 21.52. . . Using a compounded continuously rate of 19.5%, you end up with $224,373.8732 taking $125k on day 1 and $224,364.1383 taking 3 payments of 50k. Less...

    Prizewinner in a sweepstakes.

    That's the thing. There are two problems. First is, they ask for a rate, not a yield. Perhaps it's simple interest. The OP can shed some light, if he has no idea what e is or how to figure continuous yield from a rate then it is probably simple interest. The other problem is, 25.5% is...

    Prizewinner in a sweepstakes.

    I see a yearly interest rate of ~19.5% doing the trick. Most posters haven't thought this through very well. Are you sure the first answer is 15.5 and not 19.5? Although the yield on that rate is ~21.5%. . . EDIT I guess Trendy thought about it enough. :D

    Ron Paul...Ugh, will he ever grow up?

    Here's yet another fine example of why dolts who support Ron Paul and Obama at the same time are confused: Time to raise taxes on cows. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090621/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/us_climate_bill_cow_tax

    Getting a trading job with a criminal record - possible?

    So you're smokin' a joint, hitting the free pr0n sites from the neighbor's unlocked net connection. You go into a chat room, and offer a handful of benji's to a local for a visit. But the local is a copper and they knock on his door at 3AM to arrest him. After they wake him up and spend a few...

    A Flat Tax for California?

    It's California, dude. You don't go to the pen for a year for a joint. You gotta say "Spic" and slug an illegal. Then you'll get a dime for a hate crime.

    Obama's Ethics Problem Not Going Away

    That's one thing that surprised me in the last election, libtards who were proPaul. Now, I can see hoping that he'd win the GOP nomination so he could get his kiester kicked even worse than that POS McCain. Besides being 100% unelectable, Paul is probably more extreme than The One, except in a...

    What ET Member's Blog Is This?

    He brings new depth to the description of shallow, lol. He even made a wiki page about himself - which has been removed. I'm sure it's entirely fake.

    Here's one the youngsters won't understand: A 60 year old man went to a doctor for a check-up. The doctor told him, "You're in terrific shape. There's nothing wrong with you. Why, you might live forever; you have the body of a 35 year old. By the way, how old was your father when he died?"...

    You make the call! How many dead and injured this month by The Religion of Peace?

    But don't forget, earlier this month one muslim claimed to give a pair of twenties to somebody. So on one hand we have a huge pile of corpses and limbs while on the other hand we have $40. That's a Religion of Peace.

    article: Millionnaires Go Missing

    Learn? Learn what? This isn't about more revenue. This is about "fairness". Obama himself said this during the election in a debate. The moderator pointed out a few times when the capital gains tax was raised and less money came in, then a few other times it was lowered and more money...
