    Trillion dollars in student loan debt. Young people can't afford a house, family.

    Paying out of state tuiton is just plain dumb. She should get a waitressing job for a year and become a resident then re-enroll as instate. Every state has a good college, she should go to one instate, plus Univ of Colarado isn't even in the top 30. Please don't tell me she's studying art history?

    If you had 50k gamble what would your bet be

    Good one. My AAPL 660 puts were off by 1 expiry month. Oct 660 puts are up 300 percent. Since this thread appears to be more of an exercise in mental mastrubation, we should start a real traders thread for 10 bagger trades.

    Anyone get thinkorswim/TDAmeritrade to waive commissions?

    TD Ameritrade has a series of mutual funds you can trade commission free. I posted a thread about this but got no response. Maybe many users don't know this.

    Honduras....

    Sounds interesting. The problem will be with the mara gangs who kill anyone for a dollar. If security is heavy and city is gated with direct international flights I may be interested. Hiring a couple pretty local college girls willingly doing all my bidding while I trade and pay no taxes is a...

    I would like to discuss averaging down

    It depends on your system. For example in the ES, 90 percent of the time the intraday range will revert into some % of itself. The problem is we don't know how much it will revert, so adding to a loser is a 50/50 proposition for getting out even. - think its better to hedge a trade than...

    Black Monday

    I got sick of watching losses mount in my trading account and closed out all my put positions on Friday. Which can mean only one thing. Now that I'm out, the market will pullback. REITs/realestate stocks look weakest.

    Commission Free Trading

    Anyone successfully trading TD Ameritrades no load no transaction fee mutual funds? They also have commission free ETF trading if position is held for 30 days. Last year I paid IB more in fees than I made after taxes. I think transitioning to a no fee trading setup is a bug edge.

    America Under Attack in Egypt and in Libya

    Are you sure you know your history? Half the population in scandinavia were killed for refusing to convert to pray to some cross. The reason I left Christianity is because its a relgion that condones slavery, incest and child molestation. You should read the old testament more carefully, its as...

    Consistently Profitable Day Traders

    Two thumbs up for anyone consistently making 6 figures in the past few years. I've been at it for more than a decade and nearly everyone I started out with is doing something else. Good thing I diversified when my returns were good, else in the current job market I'd probably be flipping...

    America Under Attack in Egypt and in Libya

    You sound like the Nazi propagandists who needed a common enemy in the Jews to rally the unwashed masses to fight a futile war. Now we hear the same shit from zionists bent on global domination and from evangelicals who believe the rapture cometh. On another note, all religions are shit and...

    atticus' "ship it" vol trading journal

    +1 Not that I care about thread ratings, but it is true the jargon on this thread is as cryptic as jack hersheys posts. I suppose one has to be a options guru to relate to what is being posted. On another note, is the running total pnl up or down from inception? I still say buy aapl...

    Russian Asteroid Crater contains $1 quadrillion in diamonds

    You mean the privately owned federal reserve? Because the US govt doesn't print anything. The treasury floats bonds which the reserve buys by generating more zeros on a computer. You and I then sell our most precious assets, our time and energy, to pay taxes that pay off the reserve bank...
