Then they can brag to their friends at the Country Club that: "My kid is 18 and he is a hedge fund manager".

When I was 18, I had never heard of a hedge fund or an investment banker. Props to the motivated young man. But, in order to be a hedge fund manager, don't you have to have a series 7 license or other licenses to buy and sell options for others, be a supervisor etc.........? Even being the...

I'll check out the forum. ^ That is an expensive book, $89. But I'll check it out after I read the four I already have on my list. But, I have saved your idea to my Amazon List. Thanks!

I read the overview. Nicholas Taleb is always interesting, even if I have to read him slowly, and read it 2,3 times to absorb his ideas. He is a smart guy. I'll read the others later, they are much longer. I have not bought all 4 books I listed above. I have only bought Bitcoin Gold and I am...

Yes, they are sick on several levels.

If owning a dog adds years to your life, I hope the Justice System takes a year or two from the people responsible for this. And 3 women were responsible. That is unusual. It redefines 'mean girls'. https://www.fox8live.com/2019/10/01/sheriff-owner-saws-off-dogs-legs-arrests-made/

At least there is a good reason I can't find them. Thanks

China will find a way to cheat. They don't live by the treaties they agree too, so there is no reason to believe that they will conform to an international currency. They kill babies and they kill political enemies. That does not inspire confidence in me.

Yes, I guess there are a lot of elements involved in getting wifi to our homes. There is more interaction involved than sending electricity to the home. But, it still seems unfair that the providers make us pay for 50GB or 100GB and then deliver 20, look us straight in the eye and tell us...

True, but the adapter is better than my wifi card. My card is BGN, the adapter has AC. I can already see the difference in loading speed. It's only a travel laptop.

No, not one bit. I don't like the idea of a one world government and I don't like the idea of one currency. I think that international currencies are like stocks and buyers of stock. The more players, the more stability. If there was only one currency, then whoever held political...

Yeah, I understand about measuring. All I have to do is pull the USB adapter out of the laptop and test it with the original, installed card. I have never understood how wifi providers can get away with slower speeds because of 'peak time - your neighbors are using too much bandwidth online'...

Shop assistant: How about this one? Psychic: That shirt is too small. Shop assistant: You didn't even try it on? Psychic: I'm a medium. -- Just bought a suit made from cactus. I look pretty sharp in it. ---- Might wake up early and go for a jog. Might also win the lottery... Odds are...

The speed has not changed, but it is loading faster. So, that is a plus. When I get a new laptop, next year or so........I was going to look for an I7 processor. And either 720P or 1080P. I don't need 4K on a 13 or 15 inch laptop. Other than that, is there a certain wifi card I should look...

I downloaded a link but that did not work. But I used the one you provided and it works just fine. Everything is setup. I tried speedtest but there was not change. But the real test will be next week when I take it with me out of town. The wifi I have in my laptop is BGN, the Linksys adapter...

I bought a wifi adapter ( Linksys Max Stream AC 600 ) for a low end laptop I have to improve the wireless capability. I thought it might help with the reception and the speed. I inserted the adapter in the USB port and it went from yellow to white. No problem there I guess. Then I...

Would it be illegal to write a check for $5K and 'guess' that you made $25K and figure out the details at the end of the year and do all the minutiae later? Or, does it have to be done with the same accuracy that every end of year tax return is done?

"self-diagnosed" I think there might be a miniscule percentage of people who might be effected but I think most of them have mental problems. If it is really serious, perhaps she might want to move to the wi-fi free county - Green Bank -in West Virginia...

So, you are suggesting that the only way a professional athlete can retire with class is by winning a Superbowl Championship and then quitting? Maybe every athlete should be required to quit after they win a championship and never have the chance to win two ?

I was talking to someone about stocks and how they fluctuate during the day. I have seen screen shots of stock sales during the day that posted the stock symbol, price and time of transaction down to four decimals of a second. I wanted to illustrate how regulated the environment is and how...
