    Undergrad Hedge Fund Prodigy - Luck or Talent?

    Because he and his friends want other people's money to play with. Seriously, there are so many red flags in that article, it's not even funny. Why would he even structure his trading into a hedge fund when the sum is so low. With his amazing returns, why does he seek OPM? Especially when...

    Am I an idiot for wanting to quit my job?

    Never do that. Do not say any more than a few sentences about why you're leaving your past job. Your answer should be vague & neutral. In an attempt to be honest (not really a good idea in any corporate bureaucracy), you can say: "I did not agree with the company's sales approach and do...

    Undergrad Hedge Fund Prodigy - Luck or Talent?

    Ok he turned $7000 into a million or two in a few years with tight stop losses, 2-1 leverage and only stock trading? I can totally see options, but not stocks on 2:1 margins. There is no fund website, there is not even a profile on it on any sites, the closest you can find is some guy named...

    •Hotel Loan Defaults in U.S. Jump to $17 Billion as Recession Curbs Travel

    That was a couple years ago. Now some residential developments are being converted to hotels because they have better prospects than trying to sell overpriced condos or leasing out "luxury" rentals. Really, it's just grasping for straws.

    22-Year-Old Fired Trainee Trader Bags $33m In 12 Months

    You're an idiot. Maybe you should try reading the article and note the part where it states he became a bookie. Obviously you do not know how a bookie makes money, but there is no way he could have made $33 mil as a book in one year. As for making that money as a gambler by betting on...

    Get ready for your electric/gas bill to double

    Obama ran on the platform that it is going to be cap & trade, so you do not even have to know that Wall Street is behind it. Carbon tax would never get through, this was known years ago. There are already cap & trade programs established in the US, the costs of which are reflected on your...

    Michael Jackson dead - shorting WMG and SNE

    Wow, just wow. How did you get off the leash and subsequently run off the short yellow bus into the school's computer lab? Oh wait, it's summer, school is out. You must be at home while your mom is smoking crack, like she did while she was pregnant with you. And your dad's whereabouts...

    FOOD INC. What Government and Monopolies are doing to our Food???

    Please continue being a moron. It's the American way. Unlike the piece of shit GMO food farm you grew up on, I used to go to a REAL family farm in the summers in USSR. I also used to go berry picking from the forest. Food is different when it is grown in more natural way. It has its own...

    Ex-IBM chief suggests 80% tax on short-term capital gains

    Goldman & JP Morgan will be more than happy to provide the liquidity for the "long-term" guys while being exempt from the tax that keeps out the daytraders. And the Ex-IBM chief will probably consult them on acquiring the servers to run their boxes. Wake up.

    JP Morgan Chase Setting Up For Massive Credit Card Default Problem

    LOL! The key word is "theoretically" Theoretically, corporations really really care. Theoretically, the politicians are honest and are there to represent and work for the people. Theoretically, CHANGE will come and make everything fine, because Obama & the media said so.

    silver

    No, you are paying for VALIDITY. Try taking silver shot or gold shot to a refinery and get your money. You will get paid below spot because they have to certify that it is real silver & gold, and not some alloy. Some places will not even accept it.

    Trading tax of .25% on all transactions! Have you seen this?

    Uhm, no they won't. If they had any ability to do so, they would have done it already as there are more edges in Eurex than in US markets. The tax is on the docket and it's up to the Wall Street firms whether it passes or not. It will have exemptions just like the LSE VAT tax.. Which means...

    California to default next week!

    Ok kid, you REALLY do not understand how the world works. Bush is just a public figure, he is not a decision or policy maker, he just plays one on TV. Get it? Same goes for the Gobernator & Obama. Obama spends most, if not all, of his time giving speeches to people. Do you really think he...

    'Prop" then drop

    You should think harder. Experienced good traders have a lot of negotiating power and often bring down their costs & commissions to the point where the margins are very slim. They have more potential risk. Remember Worldco? Their top traders were a net loss to the company.
