The question is...what kind of return do these investors think they are getting? They buy 1% of the company for 500 million dollars giving FB a valueation of 50 billion, but how much higher do they think FB is going to go? Do they think it will go to 500 billion? This is akin to people that...

DNA is not always reliable. There was a woman who had 2 different sets of DNA and she lost her children because DNA said the kids were not hers. With the birth of her 3rd child, the judge ordered a witness to watch the birth, they immediately took samples and the DNA said she was not the...

Completely subjective. :P

3rd highest of all time. What is kind of creepy about this, was that the numbers were almost all the same as the numbers hugo played to win the near record jackpot in LOST. The winning numbers tonight were 4, 8, 15, 25, 47, 42. In the show lost, the numbers were 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42 so only...

I'm betting 2.4 million is more than he would've made in his lifetime if he hadnt gone to jail. Dont feel too sorry for him...sure he lived in a box for 30 years, but dont many of live in a box too? We live in a house shaped like a box, drive to work in a box, go into our box building and sit...

It lost exactly $44,833,000. Todays value of the white house is $251,617,000. At the peak of the boom it was worth $331,580,000. It was built in 1792 by slaves, free African-American laborers, immigrants, and salaried Europeans. It cost $232,371.82 to build, so looks like it went up in...

Why does china want to diversify away from the USD? because the FED is printing money. Therefore, copper is going up because the fed is printing money.

Hit the nail on the head!

People calling for a repeat (like me) are the ones that were invested heavily in some of those commodities. The ones that dont want a repeat are ones that missed the boat and refuse to get invested.

There is no debt ceiling...how can there be one as whenever we hit it, we just raise it? Isnt it interesting though that of that 13.9 trillion in debt, 13 trillion of it was added in just the last 30 years?

That should actually be what a normal traders account looks like. Assumming a $50k starting balance in 2002 and withdrawing $50k per year to live on, his account should be around the $300k range right now.

Propaganda. We spend money to protect us from bad guys, not on "killing"

Because Americans have so much more money to spend on gas now that they are living for 2 1/2 years rent free in their homes while in the forclosure process. They dont notice the gas prices now. Under Bush, you had strawberry farmers paying $3-4k per month for a $750,000 house, so a 2 cent rise...

The germans seem to be doing ok paying $7 or $8 for a gallon of gas.

Doesnt really matter with daytrading. You look away for a few seconds and sometimes your account goes up, and sometimes it goes down. I think looking away from the trades every once in a while is good. Your stops should stop you from losing too much money and the distractions for a few...

Unfortunately, I didnt beat you in my trading account. My return was 41.99%. I also didnt start trading until around june or so because i was so sick from all the swings of 2009. That year I did 187% in all my combined trading accounts(not counting precious metals holdings), but at one point...

useless speculation to know what the dollar index is going to do because its priced against other flawed currencies. The dollar is going to fall priced against real assets like gold, but if everyones printing, you cant really know.

Not true. The state takes the money right out of his check no matter how much he makes. The amount of child support is based on how much he is earning at the time the judge rules (generally about 18%, but can be less if he makes min wage). If he doesnt get unemployment and has no job, he...

Cotton prices were up 90%. How does it feel that my underwear outperformed your trading account? :P

Father has to pay child support. Thats his role.
