Great call! Mer is a tee total joke going forward. I have to get a laugh from this as I was a rookie Broker there once, and got to see how these "true professionals" behaved. At this point in time, I can say with confidence that the old wirehouse model is far, far gone. Thank the Lord...

LOL! I won't be in a soupline any time soon. Btw, what do the French save their +10% for? Hallucinagenic drugs?:D If so, this could explain alot.:D Enjoy your crepes.:D :D :D

When I was a new Broker, Managed accounts were all the rage. You told your Clients, "we charge a fee, not a commission. The more $$$ you make, the more $$$ we make. Sign here, here, and here." This bear market has shown me just how little "pro" money managers really know. Good article...

What gets me is the fact that American Heros bled all over France's beaches freeing them from an evil tyrant. Now, less than 70 years later, France has all but forgotten... Even worse, we ask for their help in the "war on terror," and they turn their cowardly backs on us. They deserve...

Agreed. That means I've got some work to do spreading His word.

Yes, the Brits, and Yanks need not argue back and forth. I have some British friends and they're good people. As for France? They're so lost, I don't know what it would take to save them now...

Absolutely!!!!!!!!! Especially Mother Merrill employees! (I was one once, I know the drill.)

French? How about the Creator of Heaven and Earth? How about the ONLY supreme being in existence, sending his only Son here to die for our sins. Sir, the God I know sent his Son here. His Son was a Jewish Carpenter. French? Sorry, you'll need to read a book: the Bible. Nice...

LOL!!! How did you know? Lol!!!

In my area, your 1-5 is VERY accurate.

LOL!!! Do I even need to "go there" about France??? What a liberal, lost toilet!!!! Only God himself could actually love France, and it's idiots.

Amazing! This is what happens when a Country (with the ENCOURAGEMENT) of it's government, turns it's back on God and all traditional values. I live in the US, and have no doubt we'll wind up like the UK and France sooner than later. This is probably the most asked question by people...

Well I may say opportunity if one were to buy the 3 majors, LQD, and "turned off the lights" for 3-5 years. Other than that, it's going to be a very nasty 2009. I don't have the stomach to buy the 3 majors at this point...

This is as about as good as I can get it for you bro, from a guy in my situation: 1. I'm a Broker and IAR. This is a depression for me/us. 2. The average mom and pop really don't know we're headed/in a depression. A great depression?? Don't know. But a depression, yes. 3. It will get...

No, this time, a recovery will not be "v" shaped. Sorry.

I agree. And, look at growth stocks vs. value stocks. You'll get a better "picture" once you know the true difference between the two and why one pays more dividends historically.

The M1 was a 30-06. Flat shooting round. Hits HARD!!!!!!! Some deer hunters in my area use the M1 with a scope. 180 grain Soft point. There are US guys in Iraq carrying, and using the AK. Hits hard, and is very reliable. An SKS for rabbits? LOL!!!!!! All I would know in that realm would be...

Let's see. Keep the info coming!

A retiree ignorantly puts their entire rollover IRA proceeds into one HF that turns out to be a ponzi. You guys trying to tell me that their principal can be seized??? Lol!!! No way!!! There's some good crack smoking going on with that mentality! That's a dream US Supreme Court case for...

Correct! The Madoff (made-off) Clients weren't in a HF. They were Advisory Clients.
