    No GM left to short on IB :)

    I use it as is....I really don't know what more is included in a subscription. I just use it to find the number of short shares.

    Do pilots make better traders?

    While we're on aviation, I found this cool site that broadcasts live Air Traffic Control from all over the world. www.liveatc.net. If you're into this kind of stuff it's pretty cool.

    Do pilots make better traders?

    I've logged thousands of hours on Microsoft Flight Simulator......Will this help me be a better trader or does it just make me a nerd? Probably the latter.

    Trouble sleeping

    I've been in a similar situation though not due to trading addiction......someone mentioned melatonin earlier, it can be found in the vitamin section in any supermarket. I believe its for helping reset your body clock so that you can consistently go to bed at the same time...it doesnt knock you...

    being a broker

    Give him a break. It's a competitive industry to get into, and if you're not on the inside a lot of the positions seem to mesh together in one way or another. If being a broker is something you wouldn't mind doing then I'd say go for it, if it's between that or working at McDonalds or...

    Need 2nd opinion on asset allocation

    Risking my nest egg is the last thing I'd consider doing...I want to establish some safe long term investments with the majority of the money first...and then with a smaller percentage start trading small until I can get something going.....and I'm not 100% new to stock trading, not on the level...

    Need 2nd opinion on asset allocation

    Thanks for your replies. And yes segv, I have been considering investing in real estate. Whether it would be more beneficial to buy rental properties to supplement my monthly income or find undervalued properties that need some work to flip them in a short period of time I'm still looking...

    So you wanna be great?

    So people who have shitty jobs can just say...well hey I'm unlucky...or I wasn't in the right place at the right time? Sounds like an excuse to be lazy.

    Need 2nd opinion on asset allocation

    You could put the entire balance into an IB trading account, where the amount above the first $10,000 will earn interest at the current rate minus half a percentage point. Then you could take 15% of your income and invest it in the account on a monthly basis. Rather than risking a single penny...

    Average Wall St paycheck $300k?

    Sure it's a bad idea for people that want to live a luxurious lifestyle when they don't save money. I laugh everytime I see a 50 thousand dollar Escalade with all the bells and whistles parked in a low-income neighborhood where most homes aren't worth 50 grand. If people are comfortable living a...

    Need 2nd opinion on asset allocation

    I don't take it personally hydro....I knew I would come off sounding like a punk no matter how I worded it. You're right about me not being exactly clear about what I want to do....but if I have the oppurtunity to have a masters degree paid for...why the hell not...it can't hurt me...I think...

    Need 2nd opinion on asset allocation

    Ok first of all...I never said I was "learning" anything by accepting a gift. I realize there are poor people out there, I grew up in a middle class family...my mom is a school teacher and my dad is a manager for an airline, so don't think I'm coming from some wealthy background. My parents...
