    For those people that left IB - where did you go next?

    I grew out of APIs and now trade a simple platform on a laptop. Complex trading is not sustainable. I trade with PFG.

    Where is Elaine Choa?, over 240,000 jobs lost!

    Oh please. As if any politician's word can be taken. What about Carla Hill? Remember her? 1992, screaming and shouting about how many manufacturing jobs would be created out of the NAFTA treaty. She was right, she only lied about where those jobs would be created. They sure as hell weren't in...

    Citigroup seeks "emergency cash" from U.S. Treasury

    Told ya so. Even Citicorp is not too big to fail. I am beginning to think ET posters are not traders at all.

    Protecting Assets From a Divorce

    Usage? There are good women who have their priorities straight, and all they want out of life is to make a good man happy, doing dishes, cleaning the place, and pleasing you. But from your view of such a woman, you don't deserve her, and she would be miserable in your service. Reading your...

    Protecting Assets From a Divorce

    Freddie, take your sorry ass to the street and prepare for a curb job. Your respect for women makes me want to separate your jaw from your skull. Grow a pair and feel the restraint of a man or just stick to papertrading because you cannot grow them. Welcome to ET.

    how do I buy stock for a friend

    If this a friend with a sense of humor, do what I did. I had a lady friend (platonic, I assure you, she is 400 pounds) who always laughs and says "ewwww" whenever she sees a Honey Bucket in a field or wherever. For her birthday, I gave her a stock certificate for one share of Honey Bucket...

    Federal Reserve undercapitalized

    The Federal Reserve is neither. It is not Federal (part of government) and there are no reserves. Last once first. There is no gold left in Fort Knox to serve as stability for the US Dollar. That resource became unimportant after 1913 when the Fed was created. It disappeared after the US...

    Five Biggest Reasons Market Is To Be Avoided Like Plague Until @ Least February

    I am making more money daily in this wild price action than I did before. So what is the reason I should stop and wait? Wait for what... for volatility to go back under 30 again? I think not.

    Goldman..

    That's what was said about GM, before Toyota outsold them in the USA. Sorry, no firm or consortium is above being humbled. We're talking about dollars and cents here.

    How to fix this economy right now.

    Only if the allies are with us on such an invasion. Remember in WWII, we rebuilt our manufacturing base (what is needed right now) by selling billions of war stuff to allies. Fighting wars by ourselves is unprofitable.

    Capitalism,Economy, Growth, and limits to all...

    1) Yes. 2) Unemployment will remain static if the population ages and retires at the same rate that children become working adults. 3) Due to immigration, legal and illegal. 4) Raw materials are indeed immaterial if there is no demand for what the workers can produce. In a manufacturing...

    Question about taking profits:

    Lots of threads on ET about those questions. Buy a pizza and read for a day.

    money doesn't make me happy, (nor anything else)

    Russia Is Only Down 75 Percent YTD

    Doesn't fly. That piece tries to stretch comments into an official surrender, which never came pre-nuked Japan. Any one of our liberal Generals could have said things like that on their own, in Iraq. In fact, some in the military did make such overtures about what happened. Same thing in...
