Wow...sounds like a lot of wannabe truckers here on elite trader! On the serious side, we encountered heavy traffic on I-75 southbound in Georgia when a loaded Peterbilt plowed into our rear. I was dosing, my wife driving, I woke up to her half yelling "watch out watch out and she saw...

It should be a no brainer that Greenspans senile lowering of the Fed Funds rate to 1% caused the hyperinflated rise in property values and the "more debt is good" mantra. The question is how long and how far the unwinding of this debacle will go.

On the NYSE floor no less.....of course no one knows more about market manipulation than those guys!

You will be able to buy all the "garbage" you want to at 50% off. The good stuff however is already spoken for.

Shows you what a strange business trading really is, essentially just gambling. Seems to me either you have it or you don't for the particular kind of market you walk into. Six months to make a trader? Takes at least six years to get to any level in any "normal" profession.....

It is truly amazing how $500k has become a starter home and $1mill doesn't buy anything special in many areas. $100k a year to carry a $1mill home (mortgage, insurance, taxes, utilities, maintainance) but I guess people are making it.

That makes the $1000 a foot their getting around my neck of the woods CHEAP!

LOL.....nice....if all else fails you could become a customer service agent of IB!
