You can get up to 10 years in prison, getting a gun for someone who cannot get one legally. His request is very strange and suspicious[/size]

I doubt guns, knives or explosives would have made it past security checks. His shoes did. and throwing a shoe is a standard Arab reaction of disgust. No one said he intended to seriously wound the President. He was trying to insult him

Funny then, why did people like the apostle Paul and the prophet John the Baptist give such searing defenses. John called the Jewish leadership "a brood of vipers" and "who told you that you could escape the coming destruction" among other strong language. Turn the other cheek referred to a...

If you are a veteran of forum use, you know that this is part and parcel of the way forums work. Like the bizarre request you made to ask the moderator to move some responses down below yours, until you were done pontificating? How much do you pay to use this site? Either get a thick skin...

You can be assured JP Morgan did not point to one example as proof of anything. You would have been thrown out of his room. Charlatans use "well-chosen examples" to prove things. Knowledgeable people give significant track records of all trades to prove themselves...

So? if the rules are bendable, I can think of a few businesses I could start that would make a few bucks with free publicity here. I believe they charge something like $500 a month for people who actually follow the rules - they are called "sponsors.". And we get an annoying stream of...

Brandon, We all feel for your plight. I have personally prayed fro you and hope you to a full recovery. But it is still not appropriate to wrap it up in free publicity for past/present websites, plans or blogs. Especially starting with a title like " Revealed! The PERSONAL FINANCES of a...

Of course its pointless. Stu argues from the point of view of someone who thinks being right means shouting louder than your opponent. He cannot prove there is no God because there isn't any evidence for this anywhere. So he is left with saying something stupid and expecting you to exert...

The total value of compensation to experienced union workers, counting job banks, retiree health benefits and other things has been estimated at costing the big 3 of up to $73+/hour.

What you learned in poker will not help you with daytrading, except perhaps some with trade management. Reading faces and calculating poker odds does not tell you where the market will be 15 minutes from now. And the "rake" of market slippage/commissions/broker or personal errors is a lot...

there is wisdom in that saying. Most people think it is better to lose all their money trying to figure out trading "live". If you cannot make money on a sim, you definitely will not make it with real money.

One more readying itself for the Giant Cosmic Windshield. You don't realize how very few people do this, REGULARLY? The only ironic thing is that you are clueless to reality You don't "plan" to make $500/day. You need real edges and advanced money/portfolio/trade management skills...

great place for wind energy (100 MPH) a few times a year

Your mistake is thinking that one call, or even a handful means anything: In statistics, a result is called statistically significant if it is unlikely to have occurred by chance. "A statistically significant difference" simply means there is statistical evidence that there is a difference...

You demonstrate your concept by starting with one example. What hope do you expect to have? This is statistically meaningless. It only MAY work if you have done this on HUNDREDS of trades across many different market conditions, done the statistical analysis and have PROVEN it works...

Read the thread. 90-95% of this stuff has little real meaning. A successful trader: 1) Has and uses 1+ demonstrable outperformance edges at the present 2) Is well versed and always practices trade, money and portfolio management, including understanding the concepts of "Risk of Ruin"...

since when does a sim (especially short term) prove what kind of a trader someone is? When there is real money and it your own, trading changes drastically

There should never be loans to banana republics in the first place. Anyone remember Argentina???

If the big 3 had built cars that last 200K+ miles and hold their values like Civics and Camrys 25 years ago, they wouldn't have NEARLY so much competition. I was fed up with replacing trannies, engines or both after 100-130K miles (yes I did all the recommended service). I had 2 Ford fullsize...
