    Jesse Jackson Jr. Going To Jail

    He was an idiot. He said ipads are responsible for lack of jobs in the US. If it was 1900 he would probably go after Ford for putting the horse & buggy whip manufacturers out of business. Or blame the alarm clock manufacturers for putting the knocker-ups out of business. (for those of...

    The New 29 Hour Work Week

    There is a grocery store chain near me called Bel-air(owned by Raleys) I kid you not, that there is only 1 full time employee there(the head manager). Nobody else works more than 26 hours per week.

    Short facebook. On Nov 14th, it will be trading under $10

    I'm not trying to be a smart ass or anything, but why would you be long next week? Is there any reason to think people will be buying anytime before the 14th, when pretty much everyone & their mother knows about the lockup expirations? I would think if they were going to buy FB, it would be...

    successful traders: did you have a mentor?

    Mentors are always a good idea, but finding one is another story. If someone is making more money from mentoring than trading, you probably want to stay away from them. If you want free mentoring here is what you do. Find traders that lose money(shouldnt be hard, 19 out of 20 fail), watch...

    "Gold in them hills!"..

    Deep Blue was a supercomputer. Equal to about a home computer you would get around 2007 or 2008. Kasparov also accused IBM of cheating in 1997(when he lost) and wanted to see transcripts of the program, but IBM refused and then dismantled Deep blue. Also, no computer can beat the best Go...

    Short facebook. On Nov 14th, it will be trading under $10

    If it were illegal to accept money to advertise stocks, writers for motley fool, seeking alpha and the like, would be sued everyday because they are paid to write articles about stocks. As long as you state whether you own or do not own and don't make a transaction within so many business days...

    http://www.cnbc.com/id/49766812?__source=yahoo%7Cheadline%7Cquote%7Ctext%7C&par=yahoo Thought I would update. It seems Cramer said on Friday to "wait until FB hits $18 to buy" I suspect FB employees whos lockups are going to expire next week put him up to it. Get all those buy limit...

    "Gold in them hills!"..

    Deep blue could calculate 200 million moves per second. Kasparov still beat that computer.

    Isn't the "Fiscal Cliff" the Best Thing for America?

    When a wheelchair for a child costs MORE than a brand new fucking car in India (http://www.ecogeek.org/component/content/article/2641), you know there is something wrong with the insurance system. http://www.1800wheelchair.com/asp/view-product.asp?product_id=2377

    day trading by options wth 5k

    FYI, you can get around the PDT rule by opening an account with foreign broker that doesn't enforce the PDT rule. Alliance is in Jamaica and will let you open an day trading account with $2k, but I think they don't offer options. You will have to look around to find a broker that does.

    Building a live account 3 - $10,000 to more than $10,000,000 in 30 years

    Comparing apples to oranges. If you choose a mutual fund manager that has been at their fund for 10 years, you are looking at returns of about 7 to 8% on "average". When you say "average" mutual fund I know you are talking about joe average that picks a mutual fund like he picks a stock...

    Displaced Sandy Victims - Off To Prison With You

    Yeah, otherwise they might become people who don't know how to correctly speak English and think words like "gotta" are real words.

    Why the GOP will lose in 2016

    Haha...you are like one of those guys that quits his job to "punish" his boss. In reality, your boss will do just fine and you basically just fucked yourself and your family.

    Building a live account 3 - $10,000 to more than $10,000,000 in 30 years

    At this rate, after 30 years, you are looking at closing your account with about $175k. After inflation, (assuming no hyperinflation, but the same inflation we have had for the last 30 years) then that $175k will have about $73k worth of buying power in 2042. If you want $10 million of...

    Price gouging

    The hot dog and the coke wont work because it would be considered price gouging for the hot dog and coke because you are charging more than normal market value. What I would do is find a bunch of local artists who are starving. Have an art show at the gas station and anyone who buys a painting...

    Short facebook. On Nov 14th, it will be trading under $10

    Well up to you, but I think the reason for the drop is because the Oct lockups are selling now before the Nov lockups come out of the woodwork next week. I know if my facebook lockups came out in October, I would be rushing to sell before 773 million potential shares came on the market next...

    Unvc

    Wow, not even a penny stock. You can buy 1,000,000 shares in that company for $200. Basically you can buy 51% of the entire company for less than $30k. The stock is a lottery ticket and with lottery tickets you have a better chance of getting killed on your way to buy the ticket than you do...
