    Florida vs California...

    good point I didn't think about that angle. savings subsidizes summer travel to europe, nyc or wherever. I have to agree that Cali is 'out there'. Just damn far from Chicago and NYC. If you can find a area flush with educated professionals in FL then that would have to be the choice.

    Are you a proud homeowner?

    Thanks for the post. What is MSA? I know very little about Florida but I was thinking living on a big lake in the interior somewhere would be better then living on the coast. Any thoughts about living in central FL?

    Are you a proud homeowner?

    thanks for the info. Someone told me Naples is popular with the retired crowd. I'm in my 30's, married with kid so I would be looking for good school district and a family oriented area. I've heard Boca and West Palm, but I really have no idea.

    Are you a proud homeowner?

    I think your right here. I bought a 3/2.5 coop on the upper west of of manhattan jan 06. I needed to buy and i figured I could loose 20% and still come out ahead over 5 years. Rents are really high. I wouldn't believe it if you told me a year ago but the price has actually gone up. I think it's...

    Solid Evidence of Subprime Spill-over

    I've seen the same thing and I agree with your conclusion. In some ways I'm glad cap one will stop wasting all those trees and my time. Couple months ago I called the number to be put on the 'do not send' list. This helped cut it down to about 5 credit card offers a week from 10+ before...

    Wall Street Journal and G-Strings

    I'm not going to resort to calling you ignorant and biased because name calling on message boards is so easy and a waste of time. The WSJ is in fact changing since Murdoch took it over. You said 'the person in the story happens to sell G-Strings'. You missed the point guy. Ever read the...

    Wall Street Journal and G-Strings

    Anyone notice changes in the Wall Street Journal since the big M took over? Seems Murdoch is turning this once great paper into the financial version of the post/enquirer. Front page article about the French and G-Strings. Also front page a Democrat/Hillary witch hunt about raising...

    Jobs in Sydney, Australia for US citizens?

    Sounds like Alex had a bad experience with an American. Sorry about that Alex we aren't all arrogant people. I've been to Sydney and a few other places in Australia. Went by and visited the stock exchange there. It's all electronic with few old guys hanging around watching the quote boards...

    Six Arab states join rush to go nuclear

    You are spot on. The search for truth can be difficult when viewed thru most western media outlets. But if you look at the facts and not the spin the atrocities are blatant and obvious. Try this hypothetical analogy. A small group of bad people from Canada attack a building in Saudi Arabia...

    Successful Traders, How Long Did it Take You?

    It's a tough question to answer, because everybody is different. I don't think any experienced trader would say "I have mastered trading". It really is a never ending dynamic challenge. To answer your question I would say if you pick 1 style build some rules and stick to it everyday all day...

    Does IB take responsibility? An amazing story

    i had a IB acount several years ago and was hit by a wrongful auto liqudate on a option spread. At first I was treated rudely by customer service who basically said nothing but "you got liquidated because you don't know what you are doing" I've been trading 8 years and my stat was well...
