Another alternative is to reinvent yourself. Go back to school, learn a new skill. Just do something besides sending out resumes and certifying for bennies.

The Fed is buying US Debt. China is not needed anymore. The Fed simply creates a double entry on their books and poof! There's the "money." The Feds can do this for an extended period of time but the states and municipalities cannot. The true pain will be felt when the states and...

Take all the energy and inspiration you put into trading and put that into another line of work and you'll be wildly successful. Good luck with what awaits you down the road. At some point you'll look back on this experience as one of the most positive experiences you've ever had.

Regardless of the fact that I'm not a Bazzillionaire I don't agree with this statement. Even when I've had "tremendous conviction" on a trade I've been flat out wrong. Going for the jugular could wipe you out when you are using leverage. That being said, position sizing in trading is critical...

Of course. I failed many times before I was sucessful. That didn't stop me from trying. You have to expect to fail. If you don't fail how can you learn what you are doing wrong?

No doubt. If you are in that category you'd better learn entrepreneurship. Sooooo many people are sitting around waiting for the phone to ring with an offer of a job. Shit, get out there and create your own job. Develop a product or service and toss a price tag on it. Start as a Schedule C...

The Ben Bernank doesn't want deflation because it lowers the value of all the houses on the balance sheets of the FED Member Banks. We can't have that now can we? That would completely destroy the "mark to whatever you want" accounting the banks are currently using. A house with a FMV of...

LOL. That was my first computer. I wrote a "Myst" type game on it without the graphics, of course. As I think back I think the graphics on the Commodore consisted of small blocks. My how things have changed since the 80's.

The FDIC's guarantee is good as long as the FED has the ability to print money because the FDIC is backed by the FED. Therefore, the banking system is not in trouble, presently.

The Central Banking System is thought to be behind the assassination of JFK, Old Abe, and the attempted assassinations of Andrew Jackson. We'll probably never know whether it's true or not.

At what future cost? Greenspan's plan worked too.

The markets in the US, and thereby the world, are under the full control of the Federal Reserve. The Ben Bernank wants consumers to feel the "wealth effect." Unfortunately, that doesn't do much good for those who cashed out their 401(k)'s to pay the mortgage. A market that goes straight up...

Ahh yes! Who cares about gas prices when we have The Ben Bernank to create the wealth effect.

European countries are small where you can travel by bicycle, walk, or take public transportation. That's not possible in the US where people have to drive an hour to get to work. Imagine trying to take public transportation to work each day. $8 gas would crush the US economy, assuming there...

Of course it will. There were congressional hearings about it the last time.

Becoming a billionaire shouldn't really be a goal as much as acquiring wealth. The best book I could recommend along that line is "Rich Dad, Poor Dad," by Robert T. Kiyosaki http://www.amazon.com/Rich-Dad-Poor-Money-That-Middle/dp/044656740X/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1293937751&sr=1-1

Not if she doesn't know who the father is. Then you and I pay child support :p

It's my belief that it's you against the market, not you against another trader. Or, you can even consider trading you against you seeing as phychology plays such a huge role in profitability, or the lack thereof. Both you guys beat me but I'm extremely happy with my returns because I beat the...
