7% per month average return? well at least you're smart enough to withdraw money on an on-going basis. i'm sure you realize your strategy is ripe for a blow-up.

oh crap, i just searched my # and a massage parlor came up (but in a different area code).

i knew a guy who had a geo metro. those things are a piece of crap. they're unreliable and noisy and uncomfortable. i think the 3-cylinder engine had a hp rating of 80. hell, my lawnmower has more power. and if you ever got into a head-on with a bicycle, the odds are about even that you...

basically you went overkill on the ram. you only needed 800mhz ram for a 1333 fsb mobo. because you bought good memory, you can probably overclock the hell out of that system (assuming it's a good mobo).

the feedback game has gotten to a new level: a couple of weeks ago i saw an auction where it stated that they would not ship the product until they received positive feedback (even if you paid). what a joke!

but according to tums, win7 is supposed to come out in 2009 because gates said so. lol!

these congressional hearings are dumb. it happens every time oil/gas prices spike. they did this in 2005 after katrina when gas momentarily hit $3/gal. why don't they have hearings every time the stock market or housing market surges? nothing ever comes out of these. it's just a dog &...

if you get your trade confirmations by carrier pigeon, you might be a rennick. does ameritrade charge for minimum account size? if so, his account will go to zero just based on that.. lol

what makes you so sure that a 25bp increase would definitely stop commodities price inflation?? any impact might last 3-4 days. it's gonna take 300 bp or more to do anything meaningful. if a 25bp change had any impact on financial markets, the fed would have stopped lowering rates last...

most of the advice here is "safe" advice based soley on finances. has anyone stopped to think maybe he doesn't like his current job and the long hours and travel? there's more to work than money. money is what people care about when they don't have it; when you have it, you realize other...

oh goodie, another one of these "roll-the-dice" journals. my prediction: account equity to $0 by july 31.

lol!!!!!!!! thanks for the laugh. w7 won't be out until 2011, if that. and when it's out, it will initially be unstable as all ms o/s's since w3.1 have been, so you'd probably have to wait several months for sp1. by then vista will be as stable as xp is now and everyone will be saying...

lol now i know some people are lying about their score. it took me 1 minute to get past all the spam; just click 'skip' and 'no' repeatedly. if anyone couldn't figure this out, their iq is obviously not as high as they claim. btw, no iq test is worth crap unless there's a time limit.

current construction is a lagging indicator. the permits and financing were approved years before. a better economic indicator is how many new casinos/resorts are entering planning stages now? not many.

he said he wanted something with long-term track record.

so you basically want something with no annual losses (in other words, you want ultra low risk), but you want a taxable-equivalent yield in the teens. ooookay. let me know when you wake up from your fantasy

oih correlates poorly with crude futures

brk.a/b are not shortable and there are no options for them. i hearby end this discussion.

playing hard-to-get with a hot chick only works if you're above average yourself. if you're a fat loser working at home depot for $8/hr, i don't think she'll care if you pretend to ignore her or fail to call her, assuming you'd even get her # in the first place. it all comes down to you as...

next time don't use thermal paste unless it comes with the cpu or the cpu mfr requires it. in 12+ years of building computers, i've never used the stuff, and i almost always o/c. i never had any problems. my main computer is o/c'd by 50% with no paste and a stock fan. i don't understand...
