Isn't it otherwise called emansipation? I remember multiple instances when ladies refused my help with carrying heavy stuff because they didn't want to feel "inferior".

This kind of thread is very welcome. EUR/USD thread is posted in very infrequently.

But strangler

I have enjoied your satire... but the facts say it didn't work for American voters this time.

Disclaimer: I had a lot of trading experiences over a number of years but I am not a trading guru. So, take it for what it's worth... I think your problem is you got over-confident. Hence: 1) You enter a trade before you have a confirmed signal. For this reason 2) You have larger than usual...

I think "to almost 10%" means the OP lost nearly 90% from the top of his (or her) gains.

It was me who messed up. The article says: "a one-parent family of three making $14,500 a year (minimum wage) has more disposable income than a family making $60,000 a year."

"Crown" assets have been separate from those of the royal family for a number of years. As a result, no "seizing" is appropriate. However, you should blame Disney, not British monarchy, for girls' affection for princes.

Compare this to the UK: (£12,000 per month is approximately $230,000 per year. The local authorities pay the whole of the family's rent.) full article

With taxes on the way up it's just logical to move operations to a jurisdiction with stable taxation. I am just suprised it's Geneva and not Zurich.

Unless he is the wealthy publisher of the aforementioned newspaper (and many others). http://www.allbusiness.com/marketing-advertising/advertising/1038325-1.html

The table article is talking about 4 people, presumably 2 of them are children. Only one of the 4 is working.

C# is not genrally slower than C++. C++ just offers higher potential for optimisation. So, specific algorithms like hashmaps with string keys can be implemented substantially faster in C++. Copying long C++ strings using Intel MKL is an order of magnitude faster than C#. The thing is in many...

“The investment will likely not keep pace with the cost of tuition, which continues to rise at roughly twice the rate of inflation,” said Stephen Jobe, director of 529 programs for New York-based BlackRock Inc., with about $4 billion in plan assets. “At that rate, a family will never get...

What is the point of "monte carlo backtesting"? DO you want to avoid buying hisorical data? Or do you believe you can create a trading system that is profitable on purely random data? What does that mean?

EMRGLOBAL, it would be helpful if you quoted which post you are replying to. Otherwise, it is hit and miss. The argument doesn't compare middle class to the rich. The middle class is compared to families who receive state benefits because they are too poor. The crazy part is "head of household"...

Tailand is good. From my experience (only as a tourist) there are lots of expat retirees dataing (and living with) younger (often much younger) local women (and men). From what I heard accommodation is cheaper and food is massively cheaper if you like local food. Also great massage. Best...

Good observation! Now it's really the whole cultural thing to spend more than you can afford. From economists who claim that if everyone saved and no one spent the economy would collapse to people who think they "save" whenever they spend on discounted goods.

You are making a good point. However, I don't think it's relevant to the opening post. A table that calculates disposable income after taxes and benefits doesn't include any debt payments. So, whether they have debt burden or not, a middle class household have less aftertax income to spend (on...

Smart answer! This doesn't explain though why so many headge funds move slightly to the North to Greenwich.
