    closing my trading account today

    Huh? As a matter of fact Max, yeah, I respect you; and if I did not like you, I would not have extended my dinner invitation to you. (Sorry you didn't take me up on it). You may be a pain in the ass with your confrontational manner, but you have never been anything less than a gentleman...

    closing my trading account today

    Several reasons. First off, you are just plain stupid. But that is not your fault, it is my problem for not being more tolerant. Secondly, you are an annoying guy that never contributes a single thing about trading to ET, which is supposed to be a trading site. But what put me over the...

    Longshot, I will NEVER give you more credit than you deserve. Which is none. Want to know why?

    Let's all chip in for Gordon

    Still can't get that "your" and "you're" thing straight yet....Longshot, is it that you never finished 5th grade? Or is it a side effect of the steroids?

    Total misinformation! Listen to this guy, and you will go far:confused: Reported to the IRA? As what? A Protestant? The "IRS" if that is what he means, keeps track of CASH BUY INS OF $10K A DAY OR MORE and they don't care how much you win. There is nothing from stopping anyone from not...

    Help me buy a new car (and what about cars and gender?)

    Nitro, here's the reality. A dealer will virtually never "under-allow" on your trade, and then lower the price of the new car accordingly. It is of major importance for the dealers to show a "top line" high price on the new car. If, for example, a new car lists for $40k. Your trade is worth...

    Help me buy a new car (and what about cars and gender?)

    never read the Amazon books, so I don't think they could go to my head. I was only using the value of the used car as an example. I agree no one should pay the sticker price on a new car. But the truth is, there is not a lot of markup (on a percentage basis) on a new car compared to a used car...

    Help me buy a new car (and what about cars and gender?)

    OK...it is all semantics at this point. The truth is, the absolute easiest way to get a great deal on a new car if you have a trade in is to not even bother dickering with the price of the new car. Pay the full sticker price. Get a great allowance on your trade in. It doesn't matter really...

    Help me buy a new car (and what about cars and gender?)

    There is a "blue book" for new cars. But you are right. It is pretty meaningless. It gives "invoice" prices, which don't really mean much. It takes a lot more homework to find out about current factory to dealer incentives and stuff like that. But Longshot is right in theory. If you know the...

    Help me buy a new car (and what about cars and gender?)

    Yeah, it was an amazing thing. I was pretty certain that a diesel nozzle wouldn't even fit into a regular car's gas tank. But I went back to where she did it. A very bad set up. It was at a Texaco station. The diesel pump was right with the gas pumps. And though it was a very lame move on...

    Help me buy a new car (and what about cars and gender?)

    My wife accidently filled our Saab with diesel fuel. The car had to be towed to the dealership. The dealership gave us a brand new Jeep Grande Cherokee. We took it to the Keys for the weekend (figuring why take our Lexus and put the mileage on it). Halfway there, I put the driver's side...

    Help me buy a new car (and what about cars and gender?)

    Cars (trucks, SUVs, etc), are often a matter of luck when it comes to reliability. So like your had good luck with your Corvettes, and I had bad, and your friend had good luck with his Rover and my friend had bad, it can be very random. Maybe this is a major factor in why Japanese cars have...

    WTF is going on today

    Recognizing a day that shows itseslf to be hard (for whatever your personal reasons may be) is more than half the battle. Say to yourself, "this is not my day" and just sit on your hands, and/or leave. For me, if the Dow, Nas, and S&P are not all trading in the same direction, I will...

    Help me buy a new car (and what about cars and gender?)

    I keep hearing horror stories about the reliability of these cars (they are British). And I would imagine they are expensive to maintain. But other than that, they really are nice and exceptionally stable for SUV's. The local (sort of...Ft. Lauderdale) Rover dealership has a mini obstacle course...

    Help me buy a new car (and what about cars and gender?)

    I agree. But she is a bit nuts. Her reasoning was that she has a long commute every day. Boca to West Palm Beach. She usually takes I-95, which is a pretty bad road as far as traffic, construction, etc, and wanted a large car. She liked driving the Lexus wagon more than the Saab, so she...

    Help me buy a new car (and what about cars and gender?)

    Max, you are not current.... I just turned in the Saab....haven't you been listening to me bitching about sharing my son's Civic? Anyway, it was a 2000 SE Convertible. Now you can go compare the list prices against that of the Volvo and try to prove me wrong. So predictable. Have...
