If you really want to stop crime, then make sure that the "criminals" have the same realistic hopes and dreams that you have. correct me if i'm wrong tampa, but they DO already have the same realistic OPPORTUNITIES (i wouldn't want to impose my hopes and dreams on others) as you and i have...

i dunno, i'm not sure i'd want FOREVER. but a significantly longer time would sure be nice... say, another 2000 years. yeah that'd do really nice... and, oh yeah, definitely here on earth. screw that heaven crap. earth would be WAY better. then again, maybe heaven can offer something...

i'm not sure if i'd be too quick to include that obvious illogic in my protests. you might end up gettting the worst of both worlds - pdt and 2:1 margin.

harsh consequances wouldn't be as much of a deterrent, no. but they still would be a little. especially as time goes by and the new rules of the game become part of accepted reality. think about for a sec. we all get made sometimes, but we often hold back from doing anything too drastic...

what the fucK? rigel, you are a first class idiot.

no, i meant to use "solve" . and i put it in inverted commas because the previous poster i was replying to used it. so, nope, haven't gone around the bend just yet. :) (sheesh, the nerve, thinking you pull one over on me like that!) as for deterrence. as i've said before, i've known quite...

looks pretty cool. i'll have to check it out some more. hope it's useful!

and what about those total deadbeats you seen playing them at 7/11 and Albertsons. lol.

what's there to comment on? how many people here are actually trained economists that really know enough about the subject to comment on it intelligently? and please, who the hell is looking for the "next hot fix".. i'd slow down there jack

wisdom without courage of conviction is useless. wow, try understandin that! anyone help me out here? (can't ask dark, he doesn't talk to me..) courage OF conviction? i'm not sure that makes any sense... did he mean OR conviction? is courage always present any time there is...

LOL. what rubbish. what a complete bullshit response. "daytrading is putting firms and their customers at risk. hmm, i think we'd better give them 4:1 margin then..." :D

wait till "the skirt" gets a load of this..

i love the caption. he may be dead or alive...what experts.. :D

vel, my single most important piece of advice is: sharpen up your burger flipping skills. having a pleasant sounding "would u like fries with that" also goes a long way.

who, i ask you, in the freakin world would say, "nah man.. you know, it's been a lot tougher since i've gone to multiple monitors.."????? :confused:

deterrence, especially legislative deterrence, plays a MASSIVE role in reducing crime. in fact, i'd call it the single most effective tool in lowering crime u can get... of course it's not going to "solve" ALL crime, but who in their right mind would even aim to attempt that...

vlad, lines like that one, coupled with your outlandish 98% accuracy claim, lead me to believe your knowledge of trading and of markets is different to most traders' not only in degree, but in kind. and to the extent that the latter is true, i assure you, that in the context of making money, it...

why, i do believe you've nailed it.

in fact, why don't we just completely ignore the expectations of the market participants altogether, regardless of what such expecations are based on? :)

slow down vlad, because it is most certainly YOU who is continually jumping the gun with unfounded assumptions.. an index fund huh? ok, just making sure no one's changed the rules since the last time i read Malkiel. are you sure that such and index fund is truly representative of the...
