How much assets under management, surfer?

So, you calling a top?? Time to short?

Obviously this post was a joke and you guys took the bait, hook, line and sinker!! :D :D Also, I have a relative in Nigeria. He needs help getting $15M out of the country. I will give you 10% of the profits once we transfer the funds to the USA. I need $200K to get the process started...

maybe I am wrong in my assumptions, just going off of what others on these boards have said. anyways, like someone else noted, it probably varies by branch and I don't claim to have all the answers. check it out and decide for yourself. all I am saying is that credit trading is a very tough way...

hey all I'm saying is check out all of your options. If I were you, considering a career change, I would do a lot of research. If you don't have a backtested plan or an edge, or the necessary capital + living expense $$$, then it's not worth it. Think of what is happening here. You are...

I bought a HP 17 inch widescreen- complete piece of shit, battery life of 2 hours and the motherboard already burned out. less than 1 year old. HP SUCKS!!!

just like all the tech stocks used to move back in the good 'ol days (98-00)

this is an interesting article I just read on Cohen: http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/03_29/b3842001_mz001.htm

You guys are too funny. I saw GOOG on a few magazine covers, lets short it!! I know I know, contrarian indicators.....but cmon, whatever happened to trading on technicals/ fundamentals. I am staying away from GOOG, easy money was on the way up, people who are shorting are gambling, squeezes have...

How about mentioning what company? That's a good start

another insightful post, classic.

Bingo! You must have a bankroll before starting. Go work in a respectable wall st firm first, so you can see how the financial world really works. Some schlock prop shop will ALWAYS be around.
