    One up on Wall Street is great because it gives you a great idea of the restrictions placed upon major players in the market. As a smaller player you can be all over this and use it very much to your advantage. Second, I saw a commerical last night for something like GoTo, it wasnt gotomypc...

    Memo to Obama - blame the Dems for racism, not Republicans

    It was a Rebublican who nominated and fought for the apointment of the first black man to the Supreme Court. It was the Rebublicans who had the first African American as the Sec. of State, and the republicans too who had the first African American Woman serve in the same job.

    why do many traders give seminars etc..?

    Because people can't follow a simple set of intructions. If you tell them the buy point is a trade above 10.10 they will remember that three times ago they missed a breakout, so this time god damn it they are not going to miss it, 9.99 is trading very briskly and they just know its going to go...

    Running a hedge fund is tougher than you think

    One thing I have seen people get into trouble with is neglecting the business aspect of running a hedge fund. When your trading for yourself it should also be treated as a business, but its nothing near the scale of running even a modestly sized managment company.

    Whats a realiable sourse? How about someone who currently manages $35million and who has never had a losing month, let a long a losing year since starting the program in 2002. How about a person who used to charge $5000 for the basically the same thing that will be given to people. If you...

    Just a quick update here. I orginally made the offer to mentor I think three people. For the last year, year and a half close to half of my posts on ET have been smart ass, snarky crap in the Poltical and Chitchat threads that are really of no value to anyone. So, given that I kinda figured Id...

    This is my job, it's what I do and all I got. After the market closes I take about an hour to an hour and fifteen minutes to relax and unwind, then its back to work. Often I do not finish until well after midnight. I get up each morning around 530 and start working at around 615. So many people...

    I've been "basically" a vegitarian now for about 8 years. My ex, Toni Hansen, had been one since she was about 13, and so during the 12 years we spent together if I didnt want to cook my own food it would be Veggies, with the exception of fish which she did not mind cooking. So, for the most...
