    The 99ers...long term unemployed

    Many gardeners do not have enough business. They were losing clients since 2008. In good times, may be one can start a business like that. In these times, any new business is competing against established ones. If one can hold on to their truck/SUV/camper/van or whatever, there is no need to...

    The 99ers...long term unemployed

    Very hard to start a business without some capital. Too many regulations here. You cannot even run a coffee cart without huge fees and permits.......esp in California. The long-term unemployed are doomed without savings or family help. Obama no help. Never any help for the 1099ers who...

    Disturbing Job Ads: 'The Unemployed Will Not Be Considered'

    Agree. This only forces the unemployed into deception. It seems many employers don't want people who absolutely need the job to survive. Some retail stores now prefer retirees, home makers or kids for thieir part-time jobs or full-time work that one cannot live on. Even if one live frugally...

    What can go wrong with this trade?

    That I can deal with. Just no IB robots closing the position at the worst moment - in case of an event similar to the May 6 crash.

    Any good fx broker

    Anyone have suggestions for a great broker with good platform and tight spreads. Can you place your limit order between the bid and ask? My current broker does not allow limit orders near the current place. I have to use market orders or place limit orders away from the current bid & ask.

    Disturbing Job Ads: 'The Unemployed Will Not Be Considered'

    The personel office won't have to screen thru the thousands of applications for the desperate applying for any freaking job there is. When I was unployed, I had idiot friends pushing to apply for any job - even if there is not a match at all! These morons just think that if a person is...

    Disturbing Job Ads: 'The Unemployed Will Not Be Considered'

    This time may be different. Jobs may still come back for the younger crowd eventually. Many older job seekers cannot wait for recovery - that is the sad truth!

    The 99ers...long term unemployed

    Exactly! In America, people can get food stamps if they can't put food on the table. It is housing that is the big issue. There is almost no housing help unless you have underage children. Many end up in the streets .....

    The 99ers...long term unemployed

    The American spirit has been outlawed!! In any case, there is no more open land. You can't start start a small business without paying for all the licenses and fees. If you dare to camp out (in your vehicle or tent) without paying someone, you probably get arrested and have your vehicle...

    The 99ers...long term unemployed

    Machine are digging ditches in America! Human are not longer needed. I was a 1099er (no bebefits), not lucky enough to be a 99er! 4-weeks of benefits is too short a time for the employment insurance his ex-employer paid. However, 99 weeks of full benefits was more than his ex-employer paid...
