    It is a benefit. But as I said word itself is not important. What is important is the consequence of the nature of this benefit. If it is purelly financial, it means that economy, jobs people, etc... is no more important at all. When I was at school, we of course learned investment theory. The...

    Apart from being sad for that, I always think globally. And globally when economics oppressed people so much, extremism appears and it would not be a surprise if one day japanese extremists will profit from that as german nazis did to ask people to make a revolution.

    The minister could accept the decision imposed to him to give people taxes to the bank. Many people would do it since it is other's people money. Yes he had the choice. A forced choice because he is prisoner of his honesty.

    trading is much less complex than real life since I have even created a model of stock market :) It is like mathematics. To people saying that mathematic is complex, a mathematician answered that it is because they don't know real life :) You can't put on the same level trading and real life.

    Words are proxy for realities. When you hear that the japenese finance minister gives his demission it's a farce of course. He has been sacked but yes he did the choice ! You know why ? Because banks wanted him to give them money from people taxes. he refused so he was sacked. Yes he chose to be...

    When you don't win enough, you have to pay your appartment and your foods, and let your children go to school, what will you do huh ? And unlike enterprise all these spending are not deducted from taxes, if you have to pay taxes on your spending, you are obliged to take credits. Millions of...

    Milton Friedman, who is a liberal, said "You know, people have the image, have the idea, that somehow "we the people" are speaking through the government. That is nonsense." http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=12505 So if you think, that we, the people, choose the...

    I didn't say that I said the contrary, but if we take your criteria of stupidity you can conclude that but it is not my criteria :) So ? I already said: it is not really a choice of people, it is the system.

    If we take your criteria, then they are more stupid people in United States than in Europe since people have debt in average of more than 100% of their revenue, in Europe it is only 1/3. I don't think that genetically there is more stupids in US than in Europe and so the system in which...

    Hey, I know you're strong, you're a man, you're Tarzan :) My intention is not to speak about YOU in particular, or even about HER in particular, my intention was to illustrate a GENERAL problem with a case I know - an extreme case ok but a case all the same - about the PSYCHOLOGIC...

    Really :) This reminds me of another story. I was making a 15 days training in a consulting group and I have to call by phone ceo directly to propose audit services. And one day there was one who talked to me during 30 minutes that a few years ago his enterprise was in a really bad situation...

    I don't speak about death or car accident, I speak about stock market influence on people psychology, illustrating it with a case I know. You all said that psychology is important and influence you in your trading and you won't admit that for common people well it's strange attitude.

    What are you afraid of ? I said not to read this post if you are sad or not strong enough to read it. I can talk of that without any problem, if you have a problem, well it's your problem not mine. I'm not scared to look at reality. People's realities. Winning much money doesn't prevent me...

    I don't know who Lobster is but funny that when one hears you it is only for personal attacks on someone else. Do you have other interests apart from that ? What do you think of gold or euro or Dow Jones for example I never hear anything from you on those subjects huh :)

    The $200k or 400$ or whatever remains is nothing if you have several millions of debts over that was based on your assets before you lose it. You just think in abstraction not in day to day life. What will you do when you don't have a penny to even buy a sugar piece ? You think it is just an...
