    Terms for Noob?

    I've looked around on here and I might have missed it. I'm looking for a thread that might have a list of terms for us Newbies. Like a FAQ with explanations for terms such as "haircut" "going long" or even some of the basic charts items such as P/E. A lot of these I've managed to find...

    CNBC Down Again?

    You are right, Pacridge. My Bad? What was your bad? I thought I was agreeing with you. Why 3 accounts? Why not just one account per person? Maybe they did this because there's really no way to police this? If you use a different e-mail account to start an entry how do they know how...

    CNBC Down Again?

    Never thought about limiting each trade or stock to a certain %, would make for a "realistic" contest, IMHO. I don't have a huge history or tons of experience in the market but it seems to me someone who puts all their eggs in one basket wouldn't end up having a long history ever. I think...

    Newbie Advice?

    Not insulted, I'll try to find that book. Informing myself sounds like a good place to start. I spent about 3 mos. trading on paper before putting anything actually in the market. Of course the min. I did it drops 600 pts. Guess you can all thank me for that. So you're saying it might be...

    Newbie Advice?

    If this isn't the right forum/place for this my apologies. As the title suggest, I'm new at this. So, here's the short list of info I'd like to get some feed back on: I'm 43. I've been contributing to my 401k through work for about 15 years. In the beginning I started by putting in 5%...

    good cramer video to watch.

    Oh come on, ya gotta admit he's still making a ton of money... selling books. Not sure who's the bigger clown on daytime TV him or Dr. Phil. At least with Dr. Phil all you lose is your lunch.

    Sogo Anyone?

    Anyone else have a Sogo account? I've had a Merrill Lynch account for several years, mutual fund only account through work. While back I decided I want to start putting more into something. Looking around I decided I'd go with Sogo. Started up, funded the account had to do a verify thing...

    Cnbc scrolling NCAA scores???

    What do you expect from a financial network that's gives an entire hour to a clown each day? Buy! Sell! Booyah! Honk, HONK! I'm just waiting for the tiny car and other clowns.

    Cramer: Illegal Immigrants to Blame for Mortage Crisis

    Yes! The old adgae of life giving you lemons and all that. Of course we all know life is more likely to given you crap, well then make fertilizer. Yes, some people are getting a royal screwing, it happens. Probably all too often. But life isn't freaking fair. You can either whine about...

    Cramer: Illegal Immigrants to Blame for Mortage Crisis

    Well said! I know when I got out of the Navy in '87 my wife and I had no money, no jobs and an infant daughter. We CHOOSE to move back to our home state. I CHOOSE to leave the Navy. These things made it more difficult. Suddenly no health ins, no benefits at all. I worked as a substitute...

    Cramer: Illegal Immigrants to Blame for Mortage Crisis

    "Indeed, recent research within the Federal Reserve suggests that many homeowners might have saved tens of thousands of dollars had they held adjustable-rate mortgages rather than fixed-rate mortgages during the past decade, though this would not have been the case, of course, had interest rates...

    Cramer: Illegal Immigrants to Blame for Mortage Crisis

    I completely agree with you. I think volatility will continue with a general downward trend over the coming weeks and months. With these reports and numbers it seems like the market should be going down, yet it's not. Wonder if this is due to people thinking it's hit at or near bottom and...

    Cramer: Illegal Immigrants to Blame for Mortage Crisis

    I was fairly certain it isn't a case of "All you have to do is apply to the government of the US to emmigrate here." That's kind of like saying all you have to do to replace Warren Buffett is send him your resume.

    Cramer: Illegal Immigrants to Blame for Mortage Crisis

    I don't know how they apply, or how the process currently works. It seems pretty clear that the current process doesn't work. We've had this kind of wink and nod system to allow workers from the south to fill employers need here in the north. The whole thing has created an extremely porous...

    Cramer: Illegal Immigrants to Blame for Mortage Crisis

    That's pretty much how I feel about it. We have a large Hispanic population here doing fish packaging, forest replanting, pretty labor intensive jobs. They're easy to hang a target on, blame issue on but take all the BS and politics out of it and it all comes down to "they're people just like...
