    hedge fund question

    Above quote is 100% true. If somehow a trader can earn 100% a year this is amazing. If trader can earn 100% for 2 or 3 years he goes into Trader Hall of Fame. Most traders hope for 30 to 40% a year.

    The National Football League-that was the week that was

    Agreed the BOYS could be 9-4. However, if they had to play the AFC West 4-0 or the AFC North at best 3-1. AGAIN all I am saying in reviewing the schedule(as fate would have it) if PATS and BOYS happened not to play each other both could be 13-0 NOW!!!!!!!!

    Good post cash, it amazes me when Buffet says "the only difference I see where being rich matters is that I(Buffet) can travel in more luxury that others". I guess eating at RuthsChris vs Burger King does not matter.
