    I'm Looking for Traders to Invest With

    I'm sure it's just pure coincidence, but the first of his random friends that I clicked on, Willie Crawford, it says he is a facebook fan of EasyMLMsales.com. I'm sure it's nothing though.

    I.B. for Prime Brokerage?

    Again people, I'm talking about the PRIME BROKERAGE / DVP service. NOT the regular end of the brokerage (which I use and am familiar with).

    I.B. for Prime Brokerage?

    I've been a customer at IB for several years. I'm referencing specifically their Prime Brokerage services. Thanks for your reply though.

    Mortgage Interest Deduction Phaseout?!

    Mortgage interest on the segment of a mortgage loan through one million dollars is fully deductible at any tax bracket (separate from AMT's impact, of course, which can minimize or eliminate impact of deduction depending on an individual's situation).

    Mortgage Interest Deduction Phaseout?!

    Again, I'm referencing the retroactive aspect of the change. I am not as much at issue with the deduction being lost for NEW mortgages going forward.

    I.B. for Prime Brokerage?

    Considering doing some execution at both IB and 2 other firms, and may want to domicile at IB. Does anyone have any experience with IB on this end. Any comments would be appreciated. Costs? "Cost * USD 1.00 per Take-up line item (plus exchange clearing + regulatory fees for options)...

    Mortgage Interest Deduction Phaseout?!

    I agree with basically all you say. However, as it regards renters subsidizing owners. That's fine with me if they want to change it GOING FORWARD. However to retroactively change the rules is very problematic. Do those people who purchased a home taking into account that deduction going forward...

    Mortgage Interest Deduction Phaseout?!

    That's .0xx% of mortgages out there (besides, nothing wrong with that strategy for the fiscally responsible, I'll admit that's few though). Most people rely on the NET cost of mortgage to lower their ongoing to cost of the home purchase. This one is truly nuts. That's a real smack in the face of...

    Mortgage Interest Deduction Phaseout?!

    That's nuts. Did I hear that correctly? Obama wants to phase out the deduction for high bracket earners?! Any idea if they ever did this if it would apply to only new purchases or to anyone who already had a mortgage? That's nuts.

    Obama

    It's nice and sweet to help that group of folks. However, a serious moral hazard is being created by not offering some sort of assistance to the rest of homeowners, who by the way are all partaking in reduced values of their homes as well, it's just impacting them in different ways. Those...

    Everyone should be proud today !!!!

    I've supported Obama, but am very against this plan. The irresponsible get saved and learn no lesson at all. The responsible folk get punished. Why would one want to commit to being responsible in the future when you can just be irresponsible. All gain, little to no risk. A plan that also...

    Obama

    Such bull shit. We have to "restore" responsibility, we need to be "fair"....so we fix the consequences of those who might not have been responsible. They will learn no lesson. Those who have been responsible get nothing...and learn the lesson for the future that there is no need to be...
