    Credit card companies say pay us this interest rate or lose your card!

    I have an HSBC credit card that pays a flat 2% on all purchases for the first 25,000 dollars of purchases every year. I dont like those other cards that scam you saying 5% cash back on the first 100 dollars, then .25% cash back on other purchases. I got that HSBC card about 4 years ago and...

    What if this is it, What if Dollar will simply keep dropping till it becomes a joke

    Becareful not to insult them. These are the same people that are going to KNOW you made money from the collapse and come to you first when they are hungry. You turn them down, they may blame you for everything and come back with a gun :)

    What if this is it, What if Dollar will simply keep dropping till it becomes a joke

    Inflation will push the dow to 16,000 and you'll probably say the recession is over. Everyone will be crying that the recession is over and Obama saved us. Everyone will be so blinded by the fact that they doubled their money in a few short months, they wont even notice that the chinese made...

    CTIC Jan 2.5 Calls

    Wow...you would think everyone wanted them at that price. Maybe some huge hedge fund wrote some calls when the stock was trading at 5 cents back in march and just forgot about it because they thought "No way its going to 2.50" I bet the guy that sold at 5 cents is kicking himself now.

    Credit card companies say pay us this interest rate or lose your card!

    I actually never keep a balance myself. I got that as one of my first cards after i fixed my credit almost 10 years ago. I watched them slowly increase my credit line year after year and now that card has a credit line 10k higher than all my other cards. I guess its an emotional thing to...

    My dad back in the 70s said the same thing after gold went from 35 to 100 per ounce. He also thought he had missed the party. Little did he know it would jump another 800% shortly.

    • Prepare for the worst

    Heres the problem. Yes the market is going up, but so are currencies and commodities. They went up in about equal relation to what the dow is up right now. Your portfolio went up 2% with the dow, but your ability to buy stuff went down about 2% at the same time. When you watch the markets...

    I've just found my niche in trading last year and how to be profitable. Last month I decided I had made enough and consistenly enough that i could start pulling out monthly withdrawals every month to spend on luxuries or whatever. But now I am wondering how much i should pull out every month...

    Would decreasing the minimum wage increase employment?

    Joemiami has made 242 posts and he whines and name calls in pretty much all of them. I really dont know why people like him feel the need to have such filth constantly come out of their mouths. Cant imagine that his parents are proud of such a foul mouthed man he turned out to be.
