Marry into money at: http://www.millionairematch.com :D peace axeman

Did a quick search and found this clip: Professor Andrew Oswald of the University of Warwick, UK. After studying more than 9,000 people over eight years, Oswald concluded that people who come into money are happier. The happiest among them, he further says, seem to be "highly educated...

Yes, I can have kids at any time. But this clearly falls into the "something crazy happens in your life" cateogry :D No kiddy plans to date. peace axeman

Would be easy for me since im still single, plan to stay single, and live very very light. 5 mil clear would put me on the beach and doing everything I enjoy for the rest of my life. Trading would be an intellectual hobby that would grow those funds as well. Once you cross the multi...

I would take less money per year trading instead of my high paying job as well. Time is one of the things money cant buy. Hell.... Ill take a 50% salary cut if I could be off work at 1pm every trading day on the west coast. It would be like being retired. Then I could run off and...

I would also like to hear what specific rules prevent a specialist from handing out 100 shares and stepping off 50 cents until the crash is over? If they are really required to buy on the way down, how about some REAL buying? peace axeman

Exactly. My friend always complains about how greedy his landlord is, and how incredibly tight the landlord is with his money. He can't comprehend why someone worth millions is so tight with his money. I tell him he has it backwards. He is worth millions BECAUSE HE IS SO TIGHT WITH...

Ugh :( Politicians are gonna destroy us. If spending is gonna get them voted in to office, or keep them in office, they are going to do it no matter what. This short sightedness is going to doom us. If taxes do in fact generate more tax revenue, why can't they do this, AND freeze...

My next project after I finish my new ES system is to build a time machine, go back in time, and bitch slap FDR :) peace axeman

Yup... much of this garbage is just the have-nots way of making themselves feel better. Nothing but a self defense mechanism. peace axeman

That is what I fear to be true. Very depressing. Very difficult accumulating wealth. Im planning on a fun early retirement, but the government works against me very very hard. peace axeman

"There are costs associated with living in a (orderly) society. " Yes there are, and I am not against taxation. But I am against HIGH taxation and this disproportional rate of taxation. A few years ago, I had 48% of my gross income taken from me for federal and state taxes alone. Add...

No... Im in the "Let me keep what I earn" category of people. The government robs me at a disporpotionately high rate compared to lower income earners, and then gives this stolen money to people who are less ambitious, and didnt work as hard as me at creating a good life for myself. ( And...

EXACTLY. We go work at a J.O.B. when we would rather be doing something fun. This is precisely where that 5 million comes in handy :D I cannot make a living, (not even close), doing what I LOVE to do. So I must work. No... money can't directly buy happiness, but it sure as hell...

I agree that spending and govt waste is what needs to be targetted. But im all for lowering taxes. If lowering taxes does in fact increase tax revenues like it did in the Reagen era, then the deficit wont be a problem for long. They just need to use all that new revenue wisely instead...

What do you do when what you love doesnt pay anything? :D peace axeman

Nothing is up. I'm pretty happy right now, and doing very well. However, if I didnt have to work at all, I would be MORE happy because I would have the freedom to do what is MOST fun to me all the time. Simple logic really. If I could trade fulltime, I would be happier as well...

What would have happened if Reagen had cut taxes but did not increase spending? Seems like a good thing on the surface. Any negatives hiding in there? The tax cut did create huge tax revenues, which they then BLEW. Why cant they learn from this and try ONLY cutting taxes next time...

Some of what is posted contradicts the Trader Vic book. I may have to double check, but I thought I rememered that tax cuts in the Reagan era actually did increate tax revenue by over 200%. The problem was, Reagan then increased spending by something like 300% and blew it all and then...

Aaaah more of this money cant make you happt BS. Money is tool. It can buy freedom. Freedom from work which most people spend the vast majority of their lives at. Your telling me that if you didnt have to work you couldnt find a million ways to spend your time having more fun than...
