    State Income Tax - Is it Worth it?

    Hass, Turlo (or anyone else familiar) - I am interested in your opinions of Miami. I have been there once for a short period - I have heard different things - but mostly bad, especially regarding the level of crime, dirtiness, etc. From what I gathered it sounds like a more humid version of...

    Is it all smoke and Mirrors?

    I understand what you are saying, and agree generally - I was referring to what seems to be a careless attitude, dismissing or underestimating this threat. I wonder if people with that attitude have really thought about the instant wealth destruction and global ripple effects involved if NYC...

    If NYC is 'incapacitated ... ???

    I agree with you, but don't forget that Buffett operations are primarily insurance -- he might have had some ulterior motive for making that statement (eg, increasing ins. rates, increasing premiums, influencing legislation, etc.).

    Is it all smoke and Mirrors?

    Note amongst all these posts regarding the (well-placed) fear of nuclear attacks and Ebola outbreaks, and the juvenile nonsense shrugging them off as inconsequential or good trading opportunities, no one suggested a way to PREVENT these horrible things from happening. Do all of you really...

    Is it all smoke and Mirrors?

    I disagree with you - I take it you did not lose friends and/or family in the WTC attack, as someone who did would not refer to it so casually as "blowing some shit up." 3000 people lost their lives there. They went to work in the morning and never came back. The competence of the military...

    TradeStation not an honest broker

    TraderC - thanks for posting your experience with this. as to the post requirement - it makes good sense in all fairness to put a check in the system to discourage someone creating a bunch of fake screen names just to bash a particular broker. I would probably recommend raising the...

    Compensation for traders at top firms?

    nitro - I rethought the earlier post, it was a bit harsh and over the line. In truth, I don't know whether you are an idiot or not, but the statement that "it's not that hard to make $500,000" is somewhat indicative of idiocy, or at least of naivete'. barring extremely good luck, earning...

    How much did you spend before you became a consistently successful trader?

    I would modify that to read "... until you CAN leave a solvent estate." Once you leave an estate, the game is over my friend. :)

    Intraday/Swing Plays

    That deserves to be reprinted. Seanote - I'm with the others on the board in thanking you for posting. Don't let the salesman get you down - his insipid attempt at criticism along with the incessant self-promotion and the sheer volume of posts give a good indication of the weight that...

    POLL: Pay up to stop all of the arguing?

    I'm with the "leave it alone" side - this is a great site, and on the whole, it is very well managed. If the operators are doing well financially, then leave things as they are. Everyone here is an adult and should have the analytical abilities to separate the wheat from the Don Bright chaff...
