i can see the wisdom in using discounting factors/tables for a few problems, but not utilizing a financial calculator in a graduate level finance class seems a bit extreme (although i have never had one, i think they are probably pretty hairy). i think the example i gave of the $900 security is...

shadow, no, i would not pay for something, such as a timeshare pitch, that is usually given for free. if the BT seminar is a pitch for prop trading, then i wouldnt pay for it. but, i certainly would pay $1,000 for a "good" or reasonably "good" trading seminar. again, that $1,00 could be...

some of you guys may forget what it was like in the beginning, or maybe you were trained by a trader. a 1,000 bucks in nothing for a week's training. i would pay a 1,000 bucks to watch a trader for a full week, let alone get instruction. believe me, if i could go back and start over, i would...

i havent been in school in a long time, but the questions are fairly basic. is this an entry-level finance class? simply think in terms of yield and discounting to NPV. on an HP-12C you have NPV, FV, i (interest) and n (periods). in the first one you are calculating yields on 2 investments...

for me, the twins needing extraordinary surgery falls into the category of humanitarian aid. few folks could afford that on their own. what is really wierd is that years ago i played golf with a guy. he told me his wife gave birth to their child in a corridor in a north san diego county...

i dont think the illegals are dregs - just poor, ignorant, uneducated laborers. they are, for the most part, good people. its just that they came here illegally! the U.S. could allow the best brains in the world to come here to live, but instead, we have some of the poorest, most ignorant...

the true cost would take a long time to compute. say i look at apartment units, the Section 8 rents are well above market rents. not only is the govt subsidizing rents, they are paying above-market rates! it should be noted, however, that the apartment parking lots have newer cars with chrome...

in case you havent driven down "I-5" to san diego, we now have signs depicting "illegal" families running across the freeway. :p the laest is that "coyotes" run the broder crossing from mexico and enter the U.S. going the wrong way on the freeway (with their headlights OFF, of course)...

maybe we could float japan over next to mexico and construct open bridges so anyone sneaking into japan from mexico would not get wet or face the danger of drowning. that would solve their low birth rate problem - fast, as it has for us. it would, as a matter of course, place an unusually...

i live in north county s.d in the city of vista. had a place on the bluff in leucadia in the mid-1980's. 2br/1bth with 100 LF of frontage. paid $650 a month. those days are long gone! does anyone belong to a s.d. trading club?

Very interesting. I'm sure he thinks it's easy and has no fear - it's not his money he's trading (and therefore worried about losing). Like everyone says, psychology is a huge part of the game. Since he's got that big part licked, all he has to concentrate on is the trading skills. Of course...
