    "I could be mistaken, however, if memory serves I read somewhere that each standard egg yolk has the cholesterol content equivalent to about one pound of ground beef. I'd stick with the albumin, the egg whites, that is." that's wonderful except 1) dietary cholesterol =/= serum cholesterol...

    "Does intaking this much protein really make a difference?" ime, it does. it's hard to do a controlled experiment type of thing. i would certainly rather err on the side of caution (more protein than needed) than not be getting enuf protein and essentially be wasting my workout efforts...

    Desperation 2.

    Seeking Mentor

    i gotta totally agree here. i put a lot of time, effort, desperation (lol at times), and MONEY into learning how to trade and become profitable. in retrospect, it would have been MUCH MUCH cheaper to pay a mentor several thousand dollars for some instruction vs. learning, as the columbians...

    Trading for a living OR Trading for a fortune

    eagle, what the heck are you talking about? if you are a TRADER, why the heck would a pullback, recession, bear market, etc. etc. be any worse than what we have now? for my B&H account, I would agree it would suck. I've had stocks like MO, BA, etc. for years and I am sure they would...
