    Nationwide French protest over right to retire at age 60

    But CEO's will get their bonus as corporations will be able to report illusionary inflation profits. What's not to like from the elite standpoint? Banks forecloseing so they swap the depreciating loan fotr the appreciating property asset.

    Nationwide French protest over right to retire at age 60

    Makes you think it would be worth the extreme tedium of becoming fluent in the unreadable Das Kapital so that you could get to know her better. What makes me sure that she is a Socialist you ask? Simple, if she is participating in anything other than a rally demanding tax cuts for the rich...

    Nationwide French protest over right to retire at age 60

    You might want to give thought to the possibility that the dumbing down of the masses is a deliberate strategy - especially WRT the financial issues and thus the products that suck out and skim the bulk of someones wealth to the point where they have to borrow to meet their financial product...

    Considering starting a small hedge fund good idea? bad idea? advice?

    I suspect not all of these are posting poor numbers...... http://noir.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=newsarchive&sid=aCasZh6xvwJk so in some ways I disagree - although I recognise you are talking about REAL hedge fund managers not the currently being weeded out I Bank post 2003 startups. I...

    So which Pink Sheet stock should we be buying to take advantage of this and retire early on? How about MLLOF.PK MEDALLION MEDALLION RESOURCES ? Oh no, what a shame it doesn't mine rare earths like Zinc or Magnesium.

    Just confirmed, Chinese soldiers at border and production facilities halting shipment

    Startup Fever: College Students Have It Bad

    Reads like total bullshit propaganda to me. Nothing wrong with the economy, you just have to be an entrepreneur. Seems what these budding [zero experience] entrepreneurs have is 'ideas' as in "The two students plan to import more than $150,000 worth of bicycles this year that they intend...

    Front Running Predatory Programs Need To End!

    It's very simple. The NYSE and other exchanges make money from this and stand to lose money if it is made illegal as they have made huge (football field size apparently) investments in co-location facilities for HF traders. HFT traders also it seems make money. You might want to ask if...
