Hmmm. 2042 it will be bankrupt. I'll be 66 then. So for my many years of contributions, I'll get 1 year of benefits. Yea I'd say that's a scam.

Gee, are you having a bad week or something? I just asked a question. Maybe I should just give up because there’s a chance I could loose money. I know this is basic stuff. How am I supposed to learn unless I ask stupid questions? If you don’t want to help, just say so. Like I said I spent 2...

Thanks for the concern, Shreddog, but I’m one step ahead of you. I quickly realized that testing this on the live account wasn’t going to work. I called Sterling and got a demo account set up. They said it expires after 2 weeks, but I could just email them and they would extend it again...

I finally got my API enabled and have been trying to write some sort of strategy. I can get all of Sterling’s project examples to work, however getting my own code to work is quite difficult. I have spent the last 2 days just trying to figure out how to buy at the bid. If I’m having such...

I think I’ll stick with Turbo Tax. I’ll trust the computer over a person any day. Saves all of my past returns and imports all of the data every new year. I can’t wait till the day when Congress gets off their asses and decides to actually do something. Throw away the 1,000,000 pages off...

This clip explains what I mean about the auto bailout. Why is it so easy for the banks to get a trillion dollars, but the auto company’s are made to beg. http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/12/12/campbell.brown.automakers/index.html

I have been living in the same house for 24 years. I don’t think I’ve ever been away from home for more than a week. Going away on something like that would definitely be an interesting experience. There’s just one problem. You see the screen name? Sandybestdog. My dog is the best dog. I...

There is already a company in the area doing this. It’s called Waiter on the Way. I filled out an application there once, but the guy was a little weird. It was a lot of driving, even compared to pizza. I think it is certainly a unique concept. I believe you call them, place the order and then...

Thanks for the advise. I think the minimum wage is $6.55. My company pays me $4.50 an hour because they are claiming a tip credit. It’s not like we ever actually count the tips at the end of the night to see if I made minimum wage, it’s just assumed. Like I said earlier, it won’t be long...

the gasoline is obviously the problem... you need to go mobile at your day job, but cut on the duel expense. sandy goes long ES while OJT. :p get a job waiting tables or bartending. i did that while at college... i worked at a great bar & waited tables at a very expensive French...

It’s not just about helping those who have helped build your business, it’s about starting a Revolution. Anybody can pay people good, but I want to start a whole new way of doing business. How much more can be accomplished if a rich person takes a million dollars a year and gives 20 people a...

Yes I did that for a few years, but I no longer have enough of a credit line open to switch it around. That is not the problem. The problem is I can't seem to get any business or other opportunity to ever even become break even, let alone profitable. With the right opportunity, 20k can be gone...

To l337_7r4d3r Lucrum daybyday Renegen lolatency nlslax Jaytrade NeoRio1 Thank you so much for you responses. You don’t know how much it means to me to finally get some support out there. Sorry for the delay in getting back, I was busy working for the Man. Things haven’t gotten much...

I have an life and health insurance license for 6 years, but have never sold anything. Actually I just took the continuing education classes today so that I can renew it. One of the classes- Ethics in the insurance business. I always thought that was a bit of an oxymoron. Unfortunately, in...

Yes I still live with my parents. Although I think they are getting a little frustrated that I have not made anything of myself yet, and so am I. They see that I try very hard. I think that it would be a little different if everybody else was doing great and I was failing. Nobody I know is doing...

Good gosh, you go from rags to riches and back to rags more often than Jesse Livermore. Trading while working at the dating service seemed like the best deal. How did you manage to get so many $50,000+ jobs with what looks just a degree and some programming experience? You sure can’t find...

Thank you. I need to ditch the car. Last week it suddenly wouldn’t start and I had to have it towed. $1300 later and 3 missed days of work and it's working fine. The pizza places really are a rip off. I get 86 cents per delivery. That barely covers gas, let alone anything else. They don’t...

Yes, daybyday, I am talking about principle. I was raised to work hard. I was told growing up that in America if you work hard and play by the rules, you can accomplish anything. I have come to find out that really the way it works it to screw or be screwed. This is not just me, I am talking...

I agree with you, but I think you can use that argument for legal immigrants as well. I know we are a nation of immigrants, but it seems we have an open door policy. I deliver pizza. Every store I have ever worked at, probably more than half of the people there were immigrants. Don’t get me...

Are my comments going to get deleted if I critisize a moderator? First off, credit is generally earned, not given. They give you a little bit, you prove faithful with that, and they trust you with more. I have perfect credit history. A college degree doesn’t prove anything, IMO. Does Bill...
