    Taking 0.5K to 50K in one year

    Oh man, just noticed no updates since 7/6. C'mon Millionaire, where are you? If you lost it you're in good company. Start over. Update please.

    Taking 0.5K to 50K in one year

    That is a very healthy looking equity curve. There are some periods of prolonged drawdown in there but given more experience you'll probably be able to cut the losing streaks quicker. Overall there's a nice ebb and flow to that curve and it appears as though you are managing risk well. When I...

    Other peoples money

    One more thing. If you are a non-registered operation you have to register that exemption with the CFTC. Pretty funny huh?

    Other peoples money

    Also not true. You can accept up to 35 non-accredited investors but you can't charge them a performance fee. However, if you are a non-registered operation you can charge them a performance fee. Google CFTC rule 4.7, and 4.13. There are others but I can't recall them off the top of my head...

    You don't need the series 3. You can manage up to 400k per year for no more than 15 people without registering or getting a license.

    What happens at the end of the year when 1.5 million people stop getting benefits?

    One interview per month? Shit, where the hell are you sending resumes? I know guys who have gotten ZERO interviews per year. Dude, you're rockin'

    Ron Paul says healthcare not a right

    Yes it is arbitrary but I'm curious to hear how you accomplished that. Our insurance tripled once we started using it. This is how I managed to get more affordable rates. http://www.healthinsurance.org/risk_pools/

    Bankruptcy or charge off ???

    Bingo! A lot of people get into trouble with this. BK attorneys don't tell you this because you may not file for BK otherwise. Be careful here. Just my 2c. BK is the absolute last thing you should do. Try to work out a plan with Citi to get them off your back. Shit happens, start over.

    Ron Paul says healthcare not a right

    I think you hit the nail on the head. I have been blessed with overall good health but I'm no stranger to a doctor's office and I'm no spring chicken. Since I am self-employed I have to purchase my own HC. Someone is my family had a major health problem a few years ago and I had surgery a few...

    Ron Paul says healthcare not a right

    If you don't get HC through your employer you can't afford -- simple as that. The pricing model the insurance companies use guarantees you can't afford it because a group of 100 people gets a different price than a group of 1, or a group of 1 family. The price to offset risk should be based...

    Homie, I don't particularly give a fuck if you don't believe me. I mean Christ, do me a favor and go tie the noose for me. Someone on Elite-fucking-trader doesn't believe I traded in the pits and did calculations to find a resistance level. Go hang out in the pits for a while, during the...

    How long before the Fed Funds rate is rised again?

    BB and Co. are going to make the same mistake Greenspan and Co. did. Rates are not going higher any time soon. Inflation will get out of control and the Fed will be caught chasing another bubble. Welcome to America -- the bubble factory of the world.

    A quick little story. I was running some numbers one day, trying to calulate where the next resistance level was going to come in and in the event that one failed, the one after that. I sat there for about 45 min's doing calculation after calculation and this old guy who had been trading for...

    The usual question: how is it possible?

    LOLOLOL! This is funny. What it really means is, enjoy it while it lasts. It's never this easy. Just wait until market conditions change. That will throw your method to hell and it will be back to the drawing board. I remember when I felt as though I could do no wrong and trading would...

    U.S. Bailout Costs May Reach $23.7 Trillion, TARP Inspector Says

    easier said than done. You have to get accepted by another country, then apply for citizenship in that country, and then I believe the IRS can still chase you overseas for something like 10 years. The government has this all planned out so you can't just pick up and leave. It's all part of...

    U.S. Bailout Costs May Reach $23.7 Trillion, TARP Inspector Says

    No, it's not funny. It's quite sad. When I look at my 2 children I wonder what their life is going to be like. This debt can never be repaid. What are they going to do? Just wipe the slate clean and call "do-over?" I very seriously doubt that.
