I've had it for 25 years. You get used to it...

None of what you said is in question, AFAIK. But this being a trading and markets related board, and VN being in the public eye with books, blogs and funds, the question remains: Is VN a great, or even a good, fund manager? Why does he blow out every few years? Why is he listed as being a...

Yes even the blind Demos should be able to see how "blue collar" trading and investing have become. Just look at all the ads, even on Superbowl day, about trading and "taking control of your investments". Those ads aren't targeted toward "Rich Wall Street Fat Cats". And it won't take much...

Tell me, Good SurfyBoy, how pleading guilty to 3 charges makes Mr Williams "innocent"? Yer a real crackup, Davy! :p

I've really HAD IT with people calling Americans lazy suckers!!! I'll respond later, but right now I'm going to skip out on doing some work at home and head to the casino... :p

You should be able to do it in Excel, but a more "universal" backtester program would be able to easily read in Excel .CSV format text files and do any analysis you want. For example, AmiBroker has a free trial --> http://www.amibroker.com/download.html#amibroker Or you might look at...

Get a useful degree like engineering. It shouldn't be too much harder with your math background. There are still (a few) well paying jobs for engineers. Save your money, trade on the side, live and have fun. What's not to like? :cool:

I've heard that the funds that Schwager manages or advises don't do very well. You'd think that all that "knowledge" and "insight" from all those "wizards" woulda rubbed off on ol' Jack... :p

Geithner is one of the few in 'Bam's admin that doesn't want the Trader Tax. Maybe we need him for awhile?

Yep, stunning fox. Almost makes me wish I was a movie director/pro football guy/etc...Oh well, in the next life I guess! :D
