    You Only Need $5000 to Make a Living

    Averaging is the devil. fortunately for me over the last few weeks it has worked but i could have been on the nasty side of some nasty losses on the CL.

    Tuco

    Ok, I hate to say this guys but after looking over all of the files, those of you complaining about the receiver working too slow need to quiet down a bit. I know you want to get your funds back, but from what I see with my accountant eye (yes, I'm a trained accountant), there is a lot of...

    Lennon is going to milk this puppy. Take a look at some other cases he's working on and read the applications for fees and disbursements. Check out Learn Waterhouse Inc on his site. Between his company and his lawyers, nearly 400K to his company and over a million to his lawyers!!!! He...

    Questrade problem

    Unfortunately, crap happens. From time to time I've seen issues with QT's platform but overall, that's part of the game with ANY broker (IB included). The nice thing about QT is they don't require 10K minimum to open accounts, but they also allow RRSP accounts for active investors (US...

    Anyone heard about Title Trading

    I'm sure you could have a workaround if you somehow setup a canadian company that acted as a shell with a joint venture agreement to use your use company as the fullfillment house for orders? Then again, I'm not a lawyer so I could be talking out of my ass. The OSC is one of the most painful...

    Taking $5K to 25K by the end of the year

    Haven't posted for the last two weeks. Has been a bit of an up and down period of time.... Monday the 5th I was in and out of YHOO on the MSFT news which was a mistake, I think most felt YHOO wouldn't hold up as much as it did (myself included) and this took me down somewhat. Broke some of my...

    Taking $5K to 25K by the end of the year

    LOL, why yes that was me... so obviously I may know you back from the good old days? No longer involved in music, but I still keep in touch with some of the friends from back then. Send me a PM and let me know who you are! :)

    Taking $5K to 25K by the end of the year

    Yes. There are certain stocks out there though if you watch the daily charts, you'll see similar patterns over and over. That's primarily what I look for. IN some cases I'll use averaging to repair positions.

    Tuco distributions "best case scenario is the end of May"

    Go and read up on bankruptcies and dissolution procedures. Unless things are in writing defining who gets paid in what order, that's the standard. Secured Creditors first (including ultra secured ahead of others, ie, government), then Unsecured. There is nothing that says one unsecured...

    Tuco distributions "best case scenario is the end of May"

    your math is brilliant! (5.6 + 3.1 + .7 = 10???) LOL! Secured creditors if any will get paid first. Anything left will then get split up between the unsecured creditors on a percentage basis.... if there's 10 mill in unsecured, and 1 mill left to distribute, they'll all get 10% of what...

    Tuco distributions "best case scenario is the end of May"

    This is *nothing*.... I've been watching the distributions from a labour sponsored investment fund that many were involved in from my home province, and the trustee has dragged that out for YEARS without making a single distribution (and they';ve taken the trustee to court multiple times)...
