How can an uneducated ( how many finished high school?) worker get paid $35 an hr and make up to $100k a...

    Window dressing: something to consider?

    I think its very prevalent. Look at SEC.GOV, type Renaissance Technologies, or SAC Capital and youll see these funds holding nothing volatile or likely to move... highly unlikely that they get their profits from these stocks. Most definitely window dressing
