Having been a sales person for over 10 years in my previous profession, I can tell you that this guy is a salesman pure and simple. Look at his website. Go to the home page, etc. This guys website is geared toward selling his services and his brand. There are two scenarios that I can see...

Obviously Pakistan is both a friend and a foe. There are very few true friends in the Middle East in regards to national security. In the world of geo-politics, there is a lot of murkiness. This is a world where you spy on even your best friends, let alone a country like Pakistan. I would...

I guess it depends on what you're definition of TA is. I tend to look at it as chart patterns and indicators. I use prices on an instrument, relative to the prices of other instruments. I try to buy what has been moving up lately. That's all. Some might say that's a form of price action I...

For me, it is crap. I looked into it for 5 years, and could never figure out a way to make money by looking at charts, patterns and indicators. That certainly doesn't mean that it's crap for everyone though. I now use relative strength metrics that will allow me to trade various asset...

I agree with that article. By far the best way to attack the budget deficit is to increase employment and growth. With BO on the case, neither of these things will happen to the extent that they should. Some pro-growth tax cuts aimed at companies, would have helped greatly. Instead many...

Agreed. I get sick of these guys that think China is such a dream destination because they've grown at 9%pa for the past couple decades. Let's see where their growth is without constantly pointing a gun barrel at their citizens.

Here is one thing that I know to be 100% true..... If you think that you can't get ahead, you won't get ahead.

Are you saying that it's morally right to steal from rich people, if you give some of your loot to poor people? You sure have a twisted sense of reality, but whatever bro.

This is true. I hire many low skilled, younger people due to my father's business. It is truly amazing. It seems to have changed very rapidly in the past 10-15 years. It is very scary. Shame on the absentee parents for letting this happen. As a country, we are losing our religiosity, our...

Cold, C-kidd, Jasonm????

Bearice, have you looked at the readership of major newspapers lately? It is declining rapidly. Magazines are half as thick as they once were and their readership is declining fast too.

Obviously this guy is a moron. If we default, how in the hell would we borrow enough money to save SS? The vast majority of our debt is from very recent history (2008-current), and we continue to accumulate massive amounts. The only way to keep the ponzi scheme rolling further is to have...

Also, when you blame "big government", in a democracy, you are blaming the public. We are the ones that continually put these jokers in office. Everyone wants spending in various segments, such as welfare, retirement welfare, defense spending..........yet no one wants to pay high taxes.

I'm biased? You just told me that Russia, who has a significantly lower birth rate than the US, a vastly inferior culture of corruption, and per person income that trails economic powerhouses such as Argentina, Portugal, Columbia and Peru is going to eat our lunch. They are less than half the...

When you have to incentivize your population to have children, it's too late for you as a country. There are in horrible shape and throughout history, you never want to bet on countries where corruption is rampant.

I agree that there are a select few that are very good at capitalism. It's always that way when you have rampant corruption at all levels of society. Gangsters are the ultimately capitalists. But their demographics are horrible. Low birth rates will decimate countries such as Russia, in...

Russia has an aging population, huge amount of brain drain, vastly corrupt government and culture, and crumbling infrastructure. They are only somewhat relevant because they have oil.

If their performance is so horrible, then let the free market decide that it is and put the underperformers out of work? End any and all bailouts to banks and investment companies and let the chips fall where they may.

They should let some non-violent criminals earn their freedom that way. No $$$ required.

With all due respect, hedge fund managers may not produce any sort of innovative products, but they do provide a service that many people will gladly pay for. They help manage money for wealthy people. When they make money for said wealthy people, they are handsomely rewarded. I guess I...
