Joe, Ivan - whoever is alert... This guy started on a "for sale" thread trying to dump a 6 week old site on unsuspecting buyers. Then he said it was "sold" Now, he is asking "opinions" on this site, that was supposedly sold...

in manufacturing, labor is only a minor cost now. Most of the work is highly automated with expensive robots/welders/whatever, in huge buildings cranking out large volume. Add in the long shipping times, and the huge distance to China is a disadvantage for a number of reasons. The fact...

They don't make even CLOSE to that. Sorry, I have friends who are auto mechanics. In fact, here is an article about national auto mechanic salaries: Auto Mechanic Salary & Pay Scale There are many different levels and types of auto mechanics. Therefore, the typical pay scale depends...

actually this was proved in an academic experiment years ago. A number of Ph.D students were given a system with positive expectancy. yet after trading, about 90-95% lost all their money. Why? Money management. So you first need an edge. THEN you need to become a student of good...

The hard truth is, there are zero guarantees you will EVER be a successful trader. It is a myth that "just stare at prices long enough and you will succeed." It is a belief, not a truth. It mayh happen, but probability says it most likely will not for you or anyone else. Few traders will...

The random walk is not a joke and the markets are very efficient. Current thinking is that it is random "with a drift" - it does trend some. Very few major firms can even outperform the annual increase in the stock market of say 7%. In other words, they basically ride the natural longterm...

The beef is, that Jack seeks worship, is often incapable of communicating in less than 30-20 paragraph posts, claims huge success and going around with the big wigs, spouts highly complex yet unfounded trading methods, has a history of turning a lot of newbies into lemmings, and runs away at the...

Realizing what a waste of time reading some ET posts is...

See no reason to change. If you are mature and are in a happy marriage, realizing that both parties need to be committed, you realize it has to do with love, not sex. Years ago, I was talking with a friend i had not seen in a while. When I asked how his fiancee was doing, he got very...

"Drawn by a public option that will be 30% to 40% cheaper than their current premiums because taxpayers will be funding it, employers will gladly scrap their private plans and go with Washington's coverage." 30-40% cheaper -- will never happen, but would be nice. Most of the insurance...

from 1900 to 1999 (they did not have last 10 years): the average Dem controlled congress (both houses) averaged an annual debt increase of 9.69% (median 5.81%) the average Dem controlled congress (both houses) yielded an annual debt increase of 7.48% (median 1.52%)...

Adjusted for inflation, this would be far from true. FDR and spending during WW2 was a HUGE part of the budget. But compared to now, it was small. And how about who ruled Congress during this years? Most of the Republican admins the last few decades had a Dem congressional majority.

I suspect more retail traders are a lot closer to $5-10K. If they have $25K, they first spend $8K on a shyster promising: --- our methods is "things that professional traders don't want you to know." --- you can be profitably day trading within 3 days --- you only have to spend 25...

As usual, you are nearly indecipherable. Still trying to figure out why I never put you on ignore. --- you don't get audited, because these people who actually could show your stuff as useful or not are undependable (most people call that, being evasive) --- you are often incapable of...

For 100K, you don't need to go to Britain for school. There are very high (private) quality schools in most western countries. In fact, a number of the US Senators tout and claim to support public education, yet send their own kids to exclusive private schools. It is called "do as I say...

Don't forget to dismiss 90% of those claiming to make a lot, who confuse paper/sim trading with REAL trading.

Healthcare is a right? When others pay for it, healthcare users want the best of everything. Like that woman who used treatments to get implanted embryos, had a LARGE birth (premature), and it cost her state several million dollars Her right? Or her abuse of other people's money?
