he says it's scam with worthless paper. really? are the companies not real, with real assets, making real money, growing very fast, and raising the standard of living. weren't they able to do all that by raising money through selling shares of ownership in the company. and how else would he...

wow, that's a pretty ignorant rant from someone whom i respect. if i started disecting that, i might never stop. i'd very much like his life however. he had a nice call on youtube.com recently, making big headlines in the press for blasting youtube.com, calling it worthless, that they...

i'd have to say the number of traders managing their own money making 7 figures a year, never having run a hedge fund and not at a bank, has to be extremely, extremely small. and that's great if you're content making low-mid 6 figures and having 'low 7 figures in the bank.' but that number...

you are ahead of 90% of your competition. wish i had taken programming. :(

oh, so are they are going to increase the tax brackets when they increase the minimum wage? i hadn't read that. link? i'd like to know what the new levels are. i know the democrats want to increase my rate, which by the way, is near 40% when you add in state, local, municipality, etc. then of...

if they are going to increase the minimum wage due to inflation, then to be fair, shouldn't they shift up the income tax brackets as well for the same reason?

some of the above has merit, but some traders prefer to trade, not sell. and selling and raising money might not be a strength of theirs even if they were willing. throw that in with the possibility that they might not have connections to people with money, and you have a problem. for...

assuming you have one that works. personally, for my bread and butter strategies over the years, i found a few hints around the internet, but not specifics. i've found books and magazines worthless for the most part, although i still get them all - activetrader, TS&C, SFO, and Trader...

it would be interesting to hear what hillary clinton's policy on iran would be. the jewish here are almost all democrats and big campaign contributers to the clintons. yet, she seems to want, as does her base, to pull out of the region. personally, i'd like to see the US put pressure on the...

when the United States first instituted a tax, it was a 5% flat tax. it funded schools, roads, and a military. yet now, 30%+ and double taxations aren't enough and we're $7 trillion in debt.

saw an interview with two Enron low level secretary types in a 'where are they now piece.' they said they hope ken lay and jeff skiling spend the rest of their lives in prison, that they caused so much misery. then the interviewers asked about their current lives, and both said their lives and...

i'd love to borrow a ton of money right now. it's so cheap. who can't earn more than 6-7% a year? you'd have to uber lazy.

looks strong to me. nice flag following the earnings breakout, which tests out well - according to bulkowski's research. personally, i like it. i made 80 points in two weeks, but would like to buy it back if it breaks out of this little consolidation.

isn't Jenna a school teacher at a charter school in washington dc? but you're right, i can't believe she drank alcohol and went to parties while in college. what a scumbag.

ask genesis for the link to the videos

my ratio is about 1:1 if not slightly worse, but i have a higher win % ratio. that suits my personality, while say 50% winners, and a 2:1 win: loss ratio doesn't - although that would return a very good performance for others.

those screenshots don't really do her justice. she's pretty hot. regardless, we should be thankful. there hasn't been anything worth looking at on that channel since Emma Crosby. it's possible Sue Herrara needed a crane and lift to get her on the set for a while there. Michelle Caruso-Cabrera is...

some good discussion and contributions on this thread. yeah, it's probably just persistance and salesmanship. i think with a consistent, high sharpe 20-25% annualized with a 8-10% max drawdown drawdown, and scaleable, it would be good enough to draw in some money. many hedge fund managers are...

i've made my living out of the markets for the last 5 years? i have a track record. to be honest, this topic is about how one would raise money IF they had a good strategy that was scalable, but didn't know any wealthy people. i never said i was that person. so if we could stay on topic, i'd...

it worked for some on here, but it seems like posting track records is only limited in effectiveness. there are tons of funds with <5 million in management with 5 year track records of 30-40%. i'm not sure i'd want to go the hedge fund route, but the issue of raising money when not around...
