If you're using a broker you're a loser? How is using a "direct lender" better? First off, the "direct lenders" all sell the paper on the open market, so they aren't really direct. They are an intermediary as well. I am a broker, and I can tell you that I beat direct lenders all the time...

Hey Guys, There is a new house resolution out there that is going to affect everyone who owns a home or is thinking of buying a home. Basically, the resolution states that the money that mortgage brokers make from the lender for doing a home loan for their clients will no longer be legal...

A big part of crashes occuring in October may be that 3rd quarter earnings come out and give everyone a general picture of how the DJIA companies are going to fair for the entire year. I don't have the historical data, but it would be interesting to see what the earnings numbers were for 1987...

The channel is definitely not geared towards serious traders. However, I think it is a great channel for everyday people that want to learn more about the financial world. They actually explain the economic indicators for people who have no idea what the purpose of the numbers are. Granted...

Actually, wouldn't we have to consider all illegal immigrants criminals considering they have entered this country illiegally? That means that every single illegal immgrant has committed a crime. I wouldn't consider that relatively few.

I have heard a lot of positives about Rosetta Stone. Even before they started advertising on television. I believe they have demos on their website that you can check out.

In all honesty, if you don't have the employee fill out the W9, it will not harm you in any way, but if the person is an independent contractor, they are supposed to fill out the W9 to verify that backup withholding is not necessary. The reason I brought it up is because if you want to dot your...

I didn't address this, but they are having you fill it out for the same reason you probably want to have your consultant fill it out. They want to make sure that you report the money they pay you for your services. If you aren't reporting the money and it is fairly substantial, it does not...

If the employee will be receiving a 1099 from you at the end of the year, then you need a W9 from them. If they are receiving a W2 from you, then they need to fill out a W4 for you. The W9 does not allow for filling out dependents claimed because you are not withholding anything from them in...

He died from an asthma attack back in 2005.

Can you possibly point to any poll from the time that supports this statement? I just can't fathom that this statement is correct, but I will give you the benefit of the doubt.

Although I am curious, I would rather not know. I like the element of surprise. Thanks for the offer though.

You may be right, but we're not children. I'm only looking at this from my perspective.

You're right about the plot synopsis lately, and that does fit into the time frame. However, something that has been lacking a little lately seems to be them going out as a group and doing different things around L.A. They did in the episode with the mayor of Beverly Hills, but other than...

This is one of only 3 shows I watch as well. I wish it were a little longer though. It doesn't have to be an hour, but I think they could do at least a 45 minute show. It just seems too short.

I'm not criticizing a person for using lagging indicators...blech. That sounds exactly like criticizing to me. Obviously, this is not a method you are going to use or understand. That's fine. Apparently you do not like to have a take on the market prior to sitting down for the trading day...

I guess it depends on the person. I have never been completely attached to a speculation unless I see the market playing out in the manner I believed it would. For newer traders, you are probably correct that they would be biased. However, if we are looking at what can take them to a more...

To add to this, I have never read of any professional who would state that thinking ahead is a bad idea. If anyone can point to somebody that is truly successful that does not speculate, please let me know.

It may just be that you don't know how to apply oscillators to understanding future market moves. I always find that the people who bash other indicators in a derogatory manner as you have just don't understand how to use the indicator. I could mock your use of the advance/decline line, but...

I just wanted to post my thoughts for Monday and get some input as to what others are thinking. I hope we can keep this thread civil. I definitely think the safe play in the morning is shorting the ES (if it doesn't gap down prior to the open). If it doesn't gap, I think getting short at...
