    house prices

    Actually, at the end of that article it states, "The US, on the other hand, is growing and has already reached that floor. US housing prices will stabilise and then resume growing again soon." Where as Japan is experiencing negative population growth and the average age of their population...

    Environmental Science/Studies

    Check for yourself: http://www.petersons.com/ugchannel/code/searches/srchCrit1.asp?path=ug.fas.college&sponsor=1 I don't think a degree in environmental studies is nearly as useful as a degree in environmental engineering or environmental technology from an ABET accredited engineering school...

    Americans Against Ron Paul...

    Anyone who would consider Paul to be a "right wing wacko" is severely misinformed. He's clearly neither right wing nor left wing. Although I don't agree with him on every issue, he's still a better option than the same shit they've been shoveling around every four years.

    24 single looking to go full time into day trading

    I guess you didn't read my entire post. It's simply a plan C. If trading doesn't work for me, I have a fall back option. I can't put my money to work now, because I have little money. I need a degree to find a job that pays a livable wage in order to earn enough money to trade comfortably...

    24 single looking to go full time into day trading

    I have a BS in Business Admin and I'm pursuing a Masters in Accountancy. Not one thing I learned from college helped me become a better trader with the exception of a couple statistics/quant analysis courses. Someone mentioned earlier in this thread that you should only pursue a degree if it...

    Our commander in chief is unqualified to touch a nuclear launch key

    I guess Dubya was unqualified too then. How exactly would the military know if you've ever done coke?

    Do you tip?

    Anyone who doesn't tip should be shot. Unless the service is shit, I give 15%. For shitty service, I give 5-10%.

    Ron Paul says healthcare not a right

    I think he's right. I'm 25 years old with a college degree and I have no health insurance. In fact, I haven't had health insurance since I was 18 years old. I never had a job that offered it and couldn't afford it anyway. I pay my dentist and optometrist out of my own pocket, and I haven't...

    Only those without debt will survive this longlasting recession?

    Maybe those without debt AND a decent paying job.

    Is bad credit a character flaw?

    And he's still a billionaire and I'm willing to bet anything that you're not. The system is designed to reward those who take risks. The banks have obviously taken advantage (i.e. bailouts). So why can't you and I? If it's okay for GM to declare bankruptcy, I should be able to declare...

    U.S. Mint suspends sales of almost all gold and silver coins

    Whether it's finite or not is of no relevance. The quantity in circulation simply gets stretched thinner, thus demand increases. I believe money should be backed by agricultural commodities though and not precious metals.

    Is bad credit a character flaw?

    They either think you're a drug dealer or they think to themselves, "this guy is so bad at managing his money that he has to pay one year's rent in advance?" Bad credit isn't permanent. Is a character flaw permanent? Credit is the easiest thing in the world. At 20 years old, I had no credit...

    24 single looking to go full time into day trading

    Nobody is hiring college grads and starting them at $45k anymore except for nursing majors. Those days are long over. Maybe $25-30k if he's lucky.

    24 single looking to go full time into day trading

    I would suggest majoring in IT if you're not good at math. The math isn't nearly as intense as that required from a CompSci major. Also, pursuing a business management degree isn't a bad idea if you don't know what you want to major in. You can then pursue a masters in IT or accounting...

    About the US System

    Your posts all have the same tone. I assume you're on medication yourself, or at least you should be as you clearly have some type of psychological disorder.

    There really have not been many great technological innovations in the last ten years anywhere. Sure, computers have gotten faster, cell phones got smaller, digital imaging technology has improved. However, we seem to be in a period of refinement. Rather than new and life-changing inventions...

    Doctors In Financial Trouble: Many Selling Their Practices & Switching Careers

    I have to agree. I just can't feel bad for doctors. They should have known what they were in for before they started med school. And as a previous poster stated, they'll always be in demand. They really don't have to worry about outsourcing like an engineer, a programmer, or an accountant...
