tarder um, the only person on ET possibly more ignorant than crgarcia with regards to anything related to finance.

don't buy the overbought market then... your original post was about selling puts and investing like buffet, not buying bonds. So now it's buying bonds as collateral? don't be coy and try to bury your original, ill conceived insight; you are trying to express a bear market view (the view...

crgarcia fails again. the premium you'll get on your puts will be so tiny so as to yield next to nothing on your capital at risk (tied to your maintenance margin). if you are right, the stock drops but recovers before the year is over, you'll be right on your view, but made nothing...

Bubbles is my man!

Yeah, he's pretty spot on. I wonder how long are we going to wait before loonies show up to tell us that he's completely wrong.

That's an AWESOME tv show. Are you canadian by chance? Haven't really met many people in the US who knows that show.

Huh? Aren't you proving my point that this kind of rhetoric is pointless and unbecoming? Alright, whatever, you win. There's no point in arguing with someone on the fringe. You got your man in the white house - I hope he's everything you hope for.

Or.. they value political speech regardless of how offensive they may be to them personally. (or were you pinko commie bubbies too busy protesting against the ill-treatment of tofu to show up to vote? see how pointlessly stupid such rhetoric is? And that is proves exactly my point that extreme...

Again, the opinion of the majority of right winger and republicans is not necessarily the opinion of the most vocal and extreme segement of their party. I don't expect Noam Chromsky or Michael Moore to be representative of the rank and file democrat. Why would you assume Limbaugh and Beck to...

And closing gitmo. (the real world turned out to be more complicated... who knew!)

Sorry? Every rightwinger and republican supported the free speech cage? Will you provide a citation for that? Given the last 8 years of rapid criticism of bush, it's the extreme (at least I hope it's the extreme) left is some how perplexed that anyone would really not like their guy...

When did this turn into an obama vs bush debate? trying to shape the discussion here, aren't you? Isn't the topic here rapid assholes critical of obama vs the rapid assholes critical of bush? (and the op's belief that one is mentally defect and the other is not)

I did. But what's the difference between critique and hatred? Yes, a lot of "criticism" against obama is somewhat baseless (i don't understand the birthers, for example) and some what heated. But that's political speech, the single highest form of speech protected by the constitution. So, I ask...

yes. he's the president. I'm not one of those idiots who has a problem with that. He's our democratically elected head of state. But it's also the right of every citizen of this country to be critical of him or his policy. But you can't seem to accept that. And you seem to think all those people...

Perhaps you should have your high school teacher explain our constitutional democracy to you. Actually, given the state of education in this country, perhaps that's the exact problem.

So people who disagree with you are possibly mentally defect. I see. Nice.

What do you mean?

I'm not miscalling it this time. This is the right answer. Nice use of recursion, btw - exactly how I would do it. If I were conducting the interview, the final question (and one whose answer I won't weigh too heavily on except as a tie breaker) is - what's the algorithmic complexity of this...

First, no one said that it's the ONLY interview question. Second, you can bullshit your way through work experience and skills. We've all heard that. But you can either solve a logic problem or you can't. You either have the facility to think things through, or you don't. Can't really fake that...
