OK, so I read Tripaks post, and it's midnight and I laugh so loud I wake my wife. I get shushed along with the sleepy version of "The Look". So (unlike anything I have ever been capable of in my life), she falls right back to sleep. Cool. Then I see Babaks post, and again I wake her up. So...

A: Bingo!!! B: Have a few...have a lot!

PS: Yeah, I would probably take Alaska myself over Chamonix. But if price is a concern..... Also, Caribous, Bugaboos, and and any other Canadian Boos if you want to spring for helicopter drops. $$$$$$$$$$$$ (however you spell those places)

Yeah, but men have been shot for saying stuff like that. You are living dangerously:)

Check out Chamonix....it may be a lot less expensive to get to and the Valley Blanc, on Mt. Blanc, is a trip. 17Km top to bottom. You get to be in 2 countries at the summit and see virtually a whole continent. (Europe being about the size of Texas...hope I am not offending any Texans...for you...

Dark, my man. You finally got ME to disagree. Debating per say IS about "winning". Actually, what you guys have been doing is arguing your "beliefs". A true debater would be able to take either side of this (or any other issue) and "score points". It is not about "closing the mind" or "search...

You need some help Don:) BTW, I used to trade out of Monte Carlo. Market would close at 11pm. Just in time to hit Lowes. That was in the day there was no CNBC. Too bad we had Reuters there. (But only in the office)

Yeah, that is what I remember as well. I think their were a few tiers of status, but fortunately I did my one year contract and got away from Mother Merrill. Worst year of my life (professionally).

There is no right answer to this question. Depends on what you want to do. I have been registered off and on for 18 years. Sometimes I needed the license, and sometimes I could not trade with it by regulation. But the knowledge that comes with it is always useful. Furthermore, I recommend that...

Lavish, this does not negate your logic. I will usually trade 10 times more shares of an $8 stock than I will of an $80 stock. What you said does make sense! But it is true that most (prop and firm) traders do not use this kind of money management. They will just trade a set number of shares...

Actually, it was the "worst thing I had to do". I played all over. A lot at the Horseshoe, a real lot in North L.V. at the Silver Nugget (yeah,I know, you don't have to say it!), and a good deal at the Circus Circus. I played mostly small stakes, and would occasionally go for a Sunday Afternoon...

Not even the marmots? Not even a little?

Dark, this comes as a complete shock to me! I never would have imagined you felt this way:)

No boat for him....he will live in a dorm and go to classes for about 5 years in Charleston SC. But yeah, no cost to me...and they pay him! MAJOR JACKPOT!!!

(Thanks) And excellent post, with excellent analogies!!! But what I meant was about "when I had to"..Found it interesting that no one inquired about why I "had to"

Hey Dark...remember the other night I said he wouldn't be getting any scholarships? Well he qualified for this, which is even better! MY dream come true!!!!

Damn!

Negative dude....but it was way before AIDS, and they had crude hypodermic stuff...you know, like bamboo shoots and such. Or whatever they used in blow guns. So they just probably shot up...that's where the expression "pot shot" comes from I think:confused:

Darkhorse slugging it our with kaymar (or whatever his name is) on religion, and slugging it out with Publias on mental impairment here. See, this is what makes great traders!!!! competitive attitude!!
