    Major fund closes...

    Agreed. Glad it ain't me.

    so i got millions, now what?

    I retired twice. Once from my job, once from trading. I am obviously trading again. A million bucks is not enough to live a lifetime anymore, even getting 7% interest, unless one moves to a third-world country or the zona along the Mexican border...

    so i got millions, now what?

    See my edited post at 09-03-08 09:09 AM. Add: no bonds, nothing not convertible to cash in an instant, and no real estate.

    If I wanted a girl with a 90-pound ass, I would head to Africa.

    Sorry, I'm an ass man with small frame preference, breasts are a secondary consideration.

    so i got millions, now what?

    Whee after you make your millions and don't want to spend it all before you're 50, see your local banks and load up on 7% CDs when the market is high. Then take a little and waste it on fun. Take what's left and keep trading. Wheeeeeee...

    How Did You Learn

    I didn't read any of that psycho crap. I was already self-motivated, and an analytical bastard at that. I attended an Investools seminar on stocks and options. That got my feet wet into investing. Futures came later, and I have no education for that, just screen time developing my own systems. I...

    IB disconnections

    I guess I am just one of those traders content with high-quality data updated five times per second. There is no human on earth who can respond five times every second to price changes. Even if it's .2 seconds late, the aggregate is fine, and my systems have no need to see every single duplicate...

    Lenders may have tapped Bank scheme for £200bn

    Right on. Only buy-and-hold investors should be rattled about government fiscal woes.

    Trader P/L 2008

    We all know that a polygraph test is required prior to ET membership and that nobody here would exploit account information... But it's a good idea to hide that column before screen printing next time.

    London, UK is not cool anymore - I'm leaving

    I forgot something. Russia has the UK by the balls with their energy. If things get worse between the West and Russia, you had better sharpen up your axe for firewood, because Russia can flip the switch and turn off your heating fuel. I wouldn't have a Russian friend, anyway.

    Do You Really Trust Cnbc?

    Warning!!! Dogmatic, hard-line, offensive comment approaching! I don't watch TV. I watch DVDs, but I get nothing useful out of broadcast or cable TV. I choose to regulate what goes into my brain for various reasons, and there is no such control with TV. Once you've seen it, it's in there for...

    London, UK is not cool anymore - I'm leaving

    Although I rather enjoy rain, I concur with your synopsis. My visits to London were quite memorable for the history and the young ladies, but that was a while ago, and my recent visits were not as enjoyable. The Muslims are taking you over and are eating your budget via welfare. Dubai is working...

    so i got millions, now what?

    Oh that's right asshat, don't listen to someone whose portfolio exceeds yours in longevity, diversification and size. No... make sure to get your crap advise in there about gambling earnings, yeah! And whatever you do, never, NEVER take financial advise from someone who makes his living by...

    so i got millions, now what?

    Get a financial planner and do what they say. Put most of your money away earning low interest, so it will still be there no matter what else you do. Then, take a little bit ONCE from that big bucket and keep trading. DO NOT invest in more real estate unless you want to continue gambling.

    Wall Street Art...

    If you make something like that, smaller head, don't lose the cigar, more dissolve montage sequences around the edges, less distinct "Wall St." overlay, and show it here, some top traders would buy it.

    Cheap Products vs. High Wages... Americans Want BOTH!

    The article fails to account for the thousands of factories now relocated overseas, leaving those workers without equal compensation for their skills. Or did those factories just simply never exist in the 40s-70s? Or perhaps those middle-class workers simply never worked in those non-existent...
