    Worldco Going Out of Business

    Since Shoney doesn't take your money it makes sense to me to consider them the only game in town, if you are worried about losing seed capital, since all you can "lose" is deferred compensation, which historically they have never reneged on. Otherwise go with a retail or professional firm...

    Worldco Going Out of Business

    If there were good traders left at Worldco and Hartland, and Broadway.....why wouldn't Shoney give them a home? It must be a little demoralizing for the traders being canned on a continuing basis, but hey....this is a tough business. I hear they are not doing much of any training anymore...

    worldco going out of business??

    Let this tread be a lesson to all "traders" willing to put up a few thousand dollars in order to get hundreds of thousands of capital to trade. Sooner or later the SEC wakes up to every scam, and boy has this prop idea been better than the bucket shops could ever imagine. And the majority...
