    Never give your money to a c(r)ook

    You should see some pics of this guy they've had in the various stories about this as it has developed. I'll try find some, but you're right...you should have smelt something about as soon as you heard his name.

    R@ped by CBOT

    That is a valid question someyoungguy depending on your style...for me though I end up finding more opportunities/edges in less liquid markets. Just don't be the one who pays up to get in.

    TD ameritrade down again for me

    What's the lowest real estate agent fee you've paid on a property sale?

    Is it a good time to buy an investment property

    They may fall more, they may not. There are good people who rent property, even some that are on gov't assistance.
