Not so bad? Dude, you bought the exact top of many of the stocks on this list and some of them have gone from over 100 bucks to 20 bucks. These freaking stocks are in "load the revolver" territory.

There are some compelling arguments that suggest the current financial crisis will be far worse than the First Great Depression. http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=10812

I think he's in the bathroom barfing his breakfast. Shouldn't too long til he's back out screaming "bull" and muttering "long-term."

This sounds very interesting. Thx for the Rec!

LOL. You and GermanTrader would get along well

I get Carter's nightly videos because they are actually quite good. He has a pretty good eye for the markets but it has "marketing" written all over it. If he can present a verifiable track record then it may be worth it to spend a week with him but you simply can't learn how to trade in a...

LOL!!!

Are you kidding? 1 contract per 50k? One of the attractions to trading futures is the lower capital requirements. That's like saying you can only trade 50 shares SPY with 50k. Why bother?

and....because of a tax return the government knows where you work, how much you have in the bank, how much you spend, how much debt you have, where you have your investments, and whatever else that isn't coming to mind. The government knows so much about a person based on that one little form...

They DO get the picture. Having a complicated and involved tax code is a method of control. If the government wanted to sway public opinion toward product X instead of product Y all they have to do is create some sort of tax incentive for you to buy product X. What will people do? They will...

Not true because healthier food costs more than non-healthy food. Interpretation: People spending less on food because they can't afford higher priced, healthy food = fatter, unhealthy people. The $1 menu at MCD's has gone into hyperdrive.

Credit card companies cannot "easily recoup losses on delinquents because of the collateral of the card user" because credit cards are unsecured debts. Indeed, they go to collections but collection companies pay a fraction of the cost of the debt to acquire it. People who go into CC default...
