and really quite a lot of forced savings. We don't pay YOU much, but we pay a lot of things YOU should pay for. If a janitor can send his kids to school that is a good society.

if the kids at Berkely are anything like they use to be I see a very good fight. Especially if the higher admin and even prof salaries are exposed (I'm sure they are public.) But that's the problem with those kids, they really don't teach math there do they? Too bad they don't still sell...

they were nuts when they wanted to go into the workplace

CO baby Viet Nam saved by 247 draft number ( it did finally get to 243 I think)

Tell me where I am wrong? 3 candidates. Vote as many times as you want, but once 1 candidate gets more than the other 2 combined he is the winner? (but then again I am a little partial to my Uncle Franklin who after about 50 votes got nominated on nothing more than his good looks)

you know it is not that way. If I got drafted they would never send a fuckup like me into any situation that mattered. And it would have nothing to do with my race, or religion or sex. Oh, I could fight it in court, but hopefully by then they wouldn't be needing fuck ups like me. (although I was...

o no actually, that is money management. Over the years I got lucky on nothing more than the mantra "Cut your losses short and let your profits ride" and at times I thought was a very good stop setter (since that's all I cared about, I had very little interest in my profits), but in the end it...

semantics, in that case there is no difference between a stop and a profit target, and I use neither. You know, some people take profits or losses based on other things than the market. Like a daughters wedding, or a college education, or a retirement home. (or in my case beer and cigarettes)

I never exit a position win lose or draw based on price and if I had started out that way I would still be a young man

if g-d forbid we ever have to reinstate the draft, then finally we will see if men and women are different in the minds of the American people.

I don't use stops anymore. It involves trading really small and not making significant amounts of money, but the returns are quite consistent.

well that's one path to a new age economy, first just eliminate the poor, has David Duke weighed in on this one? Makes sense. Eliminate low wage jobs, eliminate Mexicans. Hopefuly this will restore California to a more pristine white society. otherwise, just another adventure in mans endless...

Judge not that you be not judged, and if you go that route then you have to judge what in your life is mundane and should be disciplined and what in your life is free and should never be disciplined. It gets complicated.

Yeah thanks for replying again. Like I said it has been a while since I started the thread and was questioning introducing self imposed discipline. After writing about it again it looks to me like the one thing I hope for as a result of discipline is nothing more than stability. After I blew...

I think the result of discipline can be a two edged sword. The main benefit is to free some aspects of life from decision, thereby leaving more mental space for contemplation. However, like anything taken to an extreme, it can become just another way to relegate everything to discipline just to...

It's been a while. I live totally free. No need for any discipline unless I impose it on myself. So far so good. I just have some soft rules. No smoking or drinking by my aqaurium or now out in my garden. My trading room is a den of iniquity, but a little discipline keeps it contained. I am not...

and a few with wide stops will be liquidated at the worse possible price

and also, who are the people that are not angry?

it never ceases to amaze me how many people still take the republican or democrat party seriously (but maybe that is because I think I am average and most people are just like me.)

Trump didn't support Hillary or the democrats, he just bribed them because they were in power or the most corrupt.
