    Santelli vs Sorkin - Masking Debate

    Going into the financial meltdown I had been asking people who was building and buying all the McMansions in our neck of the woods. We just don't have enough doctors, lawyers etc. to support all these high price houses and subdivisions. I was also watching houses in our neighborhood go for way...

    Man's Best Friend Thread.

    Originally I was looking for another Golden, but I seemed to hit in between the breeding cycles, and most of the places I found nearby were reserved out a litter or two anyway. My wife had an employee tell her about her Aunt who runs a rescue near us. They have a facility in Mississippi where...

    Moron award for me today

    As I mentioned, I've been full time at this for 17 years. I've used it to cover 2 college educations, a Masters degree, and a third degree in progress for the youngest. I am mad I didn't follow the plan and close out immediately when I knew I had another priority at the moment that would...

    Moron award for me today

    When I first moved into the futures world I had big swings in equity. For me that was stupid and not worthwhile. I prefer the steady income and controlling my trades. the days of letting one go because it will come back are over, with the exception of today.

    Moron award for me today

    Telemarketers I ignore, but this was a call I had to take and I know I should have just closed the trade at a small loss when I took the call, but didn't. It is a small loss. but the point is I have it for my own stupidity. And boy I am as far from perfect as you can get. :)

    Moron award for me today

    I took a trade and immediately the phone rang and it was a call I had to take. I saw the trade going against me and didn't have a stop in the market. I got distracted by the call, noticed the trade had moved even further away, but felt I still had my setup in place, but it was past my normal...

    Any opinions on MSI laptops?

    Talked myself out of it once more. I started looking at my desktops and the newest is 4 years old, and that is my main trading computer. The backup platform is on my homebuilt which is soon to be 9 years old, and the family computer is 7 years old and is bogging down with all the crap on it...

    Curious, but when I clicked the prices look more than the standard price if you go to the website and look at the programs? Is that a deal?

    Any opinions on MSI laptops?

    I will use it for a flight sim, Eagle Dynamics DCS World, and probably some gaming. DCS needs more power than I have in my desktops to run smoothly. I might play some Call of Duty also. I also have Solidworks through the EAA and it would be nice to run that on a higher end computer.

    Any opinions on MSI laptops?

    Cool, thanks for the input. Now I have to see if I can talk myself into opening the wallet.

    Any opinions on MSI laptops?

    Looking at a gaming computer at Costco. They are out online, but have some left in our local store. I have been talking myself out of it for 2 weeks now, but may go ahead. I'm not a big gamer, but it would work well for a flight sim I have that runs too slow on my current computers.

    What's the best book on corruption that you've read

    I'm keeping it, and you are right most likely wouldn't get much for it. I also have a problem getting rid of books. I inherited my parents books and I need to start building more bookshelves.

    Man's Best Friend Thread.

    He's up 15 lbs in a couple of weeks and teething like mad. Well we did a DNA test for the heck of it. Puppy is 41% Siberian Husky, 18% Dutch shepherd, 12% McNab(never heard of that before), and the rest is a mixture of herding dog breeds. I have to say the description of what his coat, head etc...

    Big mistake, I had CNBC on with Cramer

    Ok, I'll throw a bone to Cramer. Over the weekend I was doing some office cleaning(a lost cause in reality), and found a note I had written on a Cramer call. It is dated 10/25/19 and it was to buy AMZN which was trading 1677 I noted. I also wrote on the note that Cramer is going to get one...

    Big mistake, I had CNBC on with Cramer

    I wanted to hear their interview with Sec Munchin, and the Pfizer CEO came on after that and I wanted to hear what his thoughts were on the progress with the vaccine. Unfortunately Cramer went into his rant syndrome, so the mistake was having hope for a good interview even though Cramer was on...

    Big mistake, I had CNBC on with Cramer

    Ok, I'll try this one more time, I'm not using it to trade news, I don't look to trade the news with exceptions like reactions to econ releases, but use the charts for that, while also listening for what it was after the fact. I have it on for big problems, like 9/11, and to at least hear the...
