    Apple IPhone - Would you buy it?

    Wow. This is why AAPL is gaining market share. Never before has so much smoke been blown up so many rear ends so quickly

    Venezuela Nationalising MORE

    Listen you're full of shit. The point is that Castro did not NEED to nationalize hotels and resorts. He did so to steal property. If he wanted more honesty in reporting he could have achieved it or simply forced them to pay more taxes. America did not fuck Cuba. Besides Cuba allowed themselves...

    Trading in a Different Country

    I'm obviously biased and you have to do what is right for you. If you could leave the US and gain a tax break and just come back whenever you wanted I would say go nuts. You can't do this. You have to renounce your citizenship so it makes it a very tough decision. But I haven't tried it so...

    Starting a Venture Capital Business

    Why would I trust you with my money? (Not being a dick just saying that this is what will be asked and if your answer will dictate how well you can do)

    Trading in a Different Country

    Well in my view any non-first world country is not stable enough to risk being forced into permenant residency (to gain any tax benefit you must renounce US citizenship) and the people there wouldn't share my culture anyway. Seriously think about the fact that the law can change at any...

    Trading in a Different Country

    The reality is that you are probably better off finding a cheap place to live in your country of origin rather than trying to flee to some other country. Also the US taxes citizens on their worldwide income. Now if you are subject to foreign taxes those get paid first and if those taxes are...

    Wow. Get real. Castro did not have to steal American property in Cuba. If he wanted to raise the minimum wage and increase taxes he could have done so.

    Venezuela Nationalising MORE

    If you think reporting low prices on real estate is a major issue... I don't know what to say. See the government appraises property and I'm here to tell you that they quite readily adjust the base up. http://www.federalbudget.com/whopays.html I'm so sick of people pretending like there...

    Venezuela Nationalising MORE

    I agree but then again once a tyrant is in power how do you determine that that is what the people want anymore? I don't care. If these countries want to grind to dust I don't care. The US has plenty of its own problems like over zealous nationalism and consolidation of executive power...

    Venezuela Nationalising MORE

    The US does not do what you are saying. You do not seem to understand. The US does not blockade Cuban ports or sink ships en route to Cuba. Besides as has already been said: 1) East verus West Germany should settle the whole Commie/Capitalist debate. 2) Again, all of a sudden free trade is...

    Venezuela Nationalising MORE

    If anyone thinks that Cuban healthcare works they are sadly misinformed. This may be anecdotal but if you do more research you'll find Cuba looks good on paper but is terrible in reality. http://www.babalublog.com/archives/001470.html The US has every right to declare an embargo on...

    Google Has a Short Half life - Maybe Another 2 Years of Dominance

    I am sure that most users will be perfectly comfortable handing over all of their data to Google via exclusive use of webapps. I'm sure businesses will be totally cool with that too. They'll want Vista for Information Rights Management but then they'll turn around and give their protected...

    Brains or Bulls Gentlemen

    A person invests for many years and thanks to compound interest retires. He sells his stocks to another person that does the same on and on. The market is a positive-sum game just as all exchange is a positive-sum game. Are we going to say that international trade is zero or negative-sum...

    The market is not a zero-sum game.
