    Aren't they a CBSX firm? If so, I believe no series 7 required, just fingerprinting and U4 application.

    Vonage is a buy

    And before you know it, it will be back to it's IPO price of $17 and everyone is made whole again! Careful with this stock - it's a sucker play manipulated by the old boys network leftover from the First Jersey/Robert Brennan days. Jeff Citron was just their puppet.

    Forex is a scam

    More likely the main reason no one posts there is because whatever numbers someone posts will be called out as bullshit or demo numbers, especially since forex gives the trader so many opportunities to demo stuff allowing them to pic and choose the results they want. Just look at some of the...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    This is the real threat. Too many things have become law in this country because they were tacked on to more important bills that were voted on based on the premise of the original bill. If Congress comes up with a health care compromise bill that satisfies both sides and then someone tacks this...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    Where did you learn your civics? It only takes a 51 vote majority for a bill to move out of the Senate before it goes to the President to sign. The much bandied about 60 vote majority is to prohibit any filibuster that the opposing party may use to halt a vote on the proposed bill. Take your 10...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    You are aware that there are those in (and outside of) this administration who would wish to fold private 401k and other retirement plans into a general services fund to be run by the gov't. Why? For starters, social security insolvency comes to mind.

    What's this crap about Obama talking to school kids across the nation Sept. 8th?

    Not that smart a move considering that most kids don't report to school until Weds the 9th or Thurs the 10th. Real boneheaded manuever from supposedly the really smart people. More like a Bush screwup scheduling it that day.

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    If you want to make your voices heard and count for something, you have to present a coherent argument, not just that you intend to boycott or not vote for someone. Also, burying your heads and pretending this will never come to pass is a Chamberlain manuever and ill-advised. Make your voices...
