    You're effing ads are crashing my browser

    Definitely something going on here. I can't even open elitetrader.com/vb at all on my mac/firefox, it just hangs while trying to load the flash ad. It used to work fine until something was changed months ago on ET (sorry I can't give better details since I don't visit the site often on the mac...

    Yodlee & IB - Does it work?

    I haven't used yodlee before but I have the option of using their "branded" service through several financial institutions I use. Any fans of the service here? Has anyone used it to integrate with IB? (A google search left me wondering if it even worked at all).

    When the Euro was weak, europeans blamed the USA, now that it is strong, the same...

    Sounds like this thread needs to be moved to politics and chit chat. I'm done here but here's one more post for the road, not directed at you in particular. I always laugh when I hear some parrot use the same meme statement that floats around such as that. Do you always follow? Do you have to...

    When the Euro was weak, europeans blamed the USA, now that it is strong, the same...

    I tend to agree. But it seems the EU loves to present France and Germany in particular as being big proponents of the EU, and in fact they do have much more influence on the stage than other countries in the union. Personally I don't care either way what they do. But I don't understand why...

    I don't have any problem with you criticizing the government, in fact you'll find many americans doing the same. I do have a problem with making blanket generalizations and insults against americans in general though.

    Give me a break you moron. Look at you generalizing an entire country's people to suit your viewpoint. How childish and petty. Talk about hypocrisy. No one posted anything derogatory and you decide to start throwing around insults (which seem to describe yourself quite well on a personal level).

    total implosion of the u.s. real estate market

    Great post. As bearish as I want to be about housing, I have to agree with you about the factors propping up asset prices, namely the cost of money and USD strength (or lack of).

    American hubris

    Typical bullshit. People like you can't think beyond your hate of americans and instead tend to focus on the doom and gloom for america without bothering to think about the negative implications it would have on other countries as well.

    Mid-Long term US dollar diversification

    I'd like to start a thread for suggestions of methods and accounts to park liquid cash in non-USD holdings. I'm talking more about capital preservation, diversification of assets rather than short term trading. For example, a 3-24 month timeframe. I'm particularly interested in the...
