    I was just thinking about how Real Estate Broker Scum are getting a pass

    LOL! If you think for a moment that a typical home buyer or seller is going to pay a Realtor a retainer or hourly fee, you're smoking crack. Most Realtors would love that system because it will compensate them for the thousands of hours they devote to deals that never close, and wasting...

    I was just thinking about how Real Estate Broker Scum are getting a pass

    These beefs about how you are getting screwed by Realtors is bullshit. Nobody is forcing you to use a Realtor to buy or sell a home. You can work directly with a buyer or seller any time you want. If you don't want someone driving you around and filling out legal docs (which you do NOT...

    Protecting Assets From a Divorce

    Great in theory, but it takes about 5 years to know if the person is right. A lot of damage can be done in that time. :eek:

    How much did SAC lose on Volkswagen?

    What market manipulation? Porsche made a brilliant move, at an opportune time. The fact that their announcement had shorts trampling each other is hardly a fault of Porshe. If the shorts were over leveraged or made a big bet, well, that's the biz. For individuals and companies who have...

    ponzi scheme?

    Last year there was a guy promoting very high returns, quick turnaround, investing in residential fix-up properties in Atlanta. Pinnacle Development Partners. He advertised frequently in WSJ, Business Week, Barrons, etc. I checked him out carefully, talking to 5 references who had...

    Will this scalping strategy work?

    LOL. Minus the $300/day in spreads and commissions. Trying to daytrade options on equities is a fools game.

    ponzi scheme?

    Obviously a scam. I've forwarded it to my brother-in-law, who is with the Attorney General's office in New York. Funny though that the site is put together so poorly. You'd think that if someone is willing to risk time in prison they'd at least do so professionally. I really love the...

    TF - Russell volume

    Volatility vs violence. I like that. And yes, while volatility can be a challege, violence can be a real problem. Anywhere near the open, but ES and TF are both very violent right now and can easily take out any reasonable stops in seconds. I had an entry, stop and target all hit...

    TF - Russell volume

    I've found TF to be very hard to trade with stops/limits I used with ER, but how much of that is due to the contract, and now much to the market volatility, is impossible to tell at this point.

    NY Times Endorses Obama

    http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/24/opinion/24fri1.html?hp A good editorial. I suggest that anyone tempted to vote for McCain take a moment to read it before slamming the paper as a liberal rag.

    anyone getting BURNT with YM market orders?

    Much depends on your confidence in your system and the strength of your signal. Personally, a market order is always my choice as nothing is more frustrating than getting left behind on a profitable trade. If I have to give up a couple dollars on the front end, then so be it. A limit...

    Defining Moment: Colin Powell Endorses Barack Obama

    Speakling of retards...have YOU so soon forgotten Powell's presentation to the United Nations on Iraq's WMDs, and the justification for attacking? Remember Powell sitting in front of a slide featuring a drawing of the portable chemical warfare labs? And the steel casings for production of...

    OOPS!!! .....Biden slips bigtime and tells the real truth!

    Makes you wonder, doesn't it, why McCain supporters haven't learned the lesson of putting a gunslinging maverick into the White House. The "testing" of George Bush on 9/11 was met with a thoughtless knee-jerk reaction that played directly into the hands of Bin Laden, and has left us...

    OOPS!!! .....Biden slips bigtime and tells the real truth!

    Why did you not print the rest of Biden's remarks? Which are as follows: “They’re going to want to test him, just like they did young John Kennedy. They’re going to want to test him. And they’re going to find out this guy’s got steel in his spine.” Biden said.

    Dumb voters = dumb president

    Old Saying: People get the government they deserve. The fact that we've had a fool in office for the past 8 years says a lot more about us than it says about him.

    Listen to this call

    Okay, okay. The fact is, in his freshman year Obama trained in manufacturing bombs and zip guns with Willam Ayers. In his Sophomore year he secretly passed his training on to North African terrorists while he was enrolled in the Peace Corps. Most are now closet members of his campaign...
