    9.6% unemployment numbers

    They are those who can get work but won't due to having high benefits, a working spouse or good size nest-egg. There are also those who really want a job but can't get one due to age or other factors. 99-weeks of full benefits is too long if you ask me. May be reducing the benefits by half...

    ADD/ADHD traders

    Some of us belong to this small percentage who have real ADD/ADHD. http://www.helpguide.org/mental/adhd_add_adult_symptoms.htm It is still a challenge for me to follow instructions in aerobics class due to ADHD. Actually, I probably focus better as a trader than in other more mundane tasks.

    ADD/ADHD traders

    Market can be interesting at times. There is also a lot of chop time or waiting time. It is these times that makes staying focused difficult for those with ADD/ADHD. People with ADHD can be hyper-focused at times and have impossible time stay focused at other times.

    Transcendental Meditation

    You an learn meditation at most Zen center or Vedanta Centers for free, or for a small donation. I learned TM in the early 1980's when it was not so outrages. I later found that it is not any better than similar techniques available for free.

    ADD/ADHD traders

    It is part of my preparation to note S/R levels and different time frames. However, that doesn't help much if your attention is unfocused during the trading hours.

    Q about EB5 Investor Visa

    If you can afford to invest in the USA to get the green card, it is not a good idea to come here - unless you are on the run from wherever you are. Once you become American, it means the IRS has a hold on you anywhere in the world.
