"They're getting the message. With the 18- to 24-year-old group, they're just out of college and already saving money. And the 25- to 34-year-old group already has a good head start. If they keep that up, by the time they're 50, the implication is they will be very well off," says Brian T...

While the article is based on one of those miniscule-type surveys intended to portray the more "general" picture (and get a long article out of), some of the figures I feel hold relative water within a bit larger margin of error then what this survey projects, if this survey were to expand into...

such a tease right now...:p

Dow up nearly 12% so far this year...

beware of Black Monday, Black Tuesday, Black Wednesday, Black Thursday, Black Friday...as well as Black Saturday AND Black Sunday. Feb. 29th? That's Black too. IOW, don't trade. :cool:

How "big" though will this correction have to be to make it look really "bad"? The Dow is up 11.6% this year. The S&P 500 is up 9.5% for the year. The Nasdaq is up nearly 12% on the year. "Normal" (considered by many ~ at 10%) still puts everthing up a bit; at worst, breakeven to 1/1/07...

my "gut feeling" tells me terror isn't under control.. :D

could very well see 14K by next week now. up, up, up we go.

still can cause some very good moves...just as an open or close sometimes (not every single day, but on many) back to the OP topic though, when a lot are trying to get out at the end before market close...sure things are going to get a little crazy.

Best 3 times of the day are open, lunch, and near the close...where things can really move.

probably hold steady again in the next round barring more circumstances that say raise it... damned if you do, damned if you don't...

Tanslation: "blah blah blah blah blah blah blah we're not sure blah blah blah blah blah blah things are OK blah blah blah yakkity shmakkity I can't answer that blah blah blah blah blah thank you"

"imperfectly anchored" WTF?! :confused: oh wait he's a closet Ani Difranco fan :D Apparently the Q&A time now is even worse; ES just took a 6 point dive...

Curious as well; are we talking not qualified in the sense of skills they have vs. skills you are looking for for the job(s), or are they lacking serious people/general skills... Not surprised either way on the "ton" of resumes...it's a given nowadays in any relatively major business...

In that case considering what he's doing, then there is good upside... ...at least his job won't get outsourced :p

not in those lower-type jobs, no...and that is the free market talking, especially when you have 25K applicants for 350 jobs (71:1 ratio!) Thus the minimums can easily be paid. It's the case with any of these jobs, from small businesses to Walmarts...too many applying for too few (and many of...

Paulds...indeed well informative and repeating some major points that come up time and time again...which some still can't get. Although, say in futures one can start with less then $5K to get the account open, $4-$5K is a very nominal amount to work with in a balance of time and just above...

then suddenly one will be right and it'll be the highlight of their life...:D

how much are you willing to pay for them :p

and it's the some that will never learn (law of numbers), as well as to keep the money flows going and bring others into things...those that can continue to make $$$ going up, and learn to catch things back when it retreats are the ones who continually do well.
