    Remember Dubai? You were dreaming

    The Burj is only $1592 per night right now. Goes up to $1,715 for Christmas(hahaha imagine spending Christmas in the middle east!) In January price goes down to $1,494 after Jan 10. So basically the room costs more than the plane ticket.

    How low can the dollar go?

    It can go to zero. Look at our coins...the metal in the coins is starting to get worth more than the face value of the coin. That says something! A pre-1982 penny is worth 211% of its face value. A 1946-2009 nickel is worth about 93% of its face value and even a penny made today which...

    Something going on with silver?

    Manipulation by banks like HSBC that are shorting the hell out of it. One day the silver will just be unavailable and you will see the mother of all rallies. You can still buy silver rounds at APMEX.com for a little over $20 as of this writing.

    Credit Card Default. What's happening??

    My biggest problem is that my credit card company keeps freezing my card because they think it keeps getting "stolen" Why do they think this? Because I make about 50 transactions per month or so and I guess this is suspicious activity. Last week they called me and said they thought that my...

    How pissed would you be if you saw them a year later and they are multimillionaires living in a mansion and driving ferraris? That would be a slap in the face to all traders, wouldnt it? :D

    Yen Falls / USD stronger as BOJ Special Meeting Announcement Spurs Intervention Bets

    10 more minutes until the BOJ tells us they are going to screw with the currency. Im long USD/JPY now, but i will probably be wrong. If im right, then i will sell too early and JPY will go to 90 and i will sell at 87.75

    The dark side of Dubai - expat story

    Some people like a little excitement in their lives. At least when they finally leave, they got a pretty exciting story to tell.

    Remember the guy that couldnt sell 1oz of gold for 50 bucks? He's back.

    Two guys on an island and one woman. 1 guy has gold and can make jewelry out of it. The other guy can only make a corn husk bracelet with his leftover table scraps. Which guy gets the girl do you think? Now...does gold really have no value?

    The dark side of Dubai - expat story

    Its truly sad, but even though i have never been to dubai I know a few workers there that dont have any other complaints other than its hot there. It could be the journalist was just looking to sell a story and really embelished on this. These type of "slavery" conditions exist everywhere...

    fixed income recommendations

    Look at that. AVF down over 6% in one day. AIG down almost 15%. That 7% divy pretty much just vanished overnight, didnt it? A good & really safe divy would be in something like JNJ (johnson&johnson) The divy consistently doubles every 4 or 5 years and the stock will almost never take a...

    My Life as a Trader...

    Being that reckless with your money shows the exact opposite of intelligence. If you are as crazy with your trading as with your lifestyle, you will only get your money back based on pure luck. I read a book many years ago (I think it was called "Fooled by randomness") where the author...
