    college and trading career help

    Screw what these a##holes say on this forum. Half of these losers are 45 year old trader wannabes who live with their parents. That's awesome that you are 16 and trading. The sad scenario is that you have to go to a top 15 school with a finance degree for top firms to look at you. Iowa...

    Housing Rolling Along 2

    First of all Oil is over $50 a barrel which is still way too high, and it's probably not going any lower. Many analysts are saying it's just in a corrective cycle at this point. Gold which is also a good measure of inflation is off of the charts. How can you say mortgage rates will never...
