$100M! Not even think about it. Why would you need so much money? What you will do with those moneys? Do you agree with me if we reduce the amount to something smaller but we're still making sure to have a nice living with that. We will have to do in two steps, first remove one zero and...

I agree, and they had chosen a victim (Martha Stewart) to punish just to show the public that they are anti-corruption and anti-manipulation. I believe a lot of others do bad than her, it just they didn't get caught.

Do think Buffet is really better? How we define better since Buffet seldom pull out the money from the market. He don't expend those moneys, I wonder for what he's working for! To become the world richest man one day, maybe; but Bill Gates still hold on. I think Jesse Livermore is the best...

You guys all have a very good points and solid arguments about the possible unfair trading process provided by the Specialist from time to time. Is it possible to team up and raise this concern to the NYSE Chief Executive Officer? He will probably listen to you guys and regard your...
