bump.. it seems everyone is confident it's not gonna happen.

Sorry mate. Forgot to link the article. Here it is http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/06/11/us-eurozone-greece-capital-idUSBRE85A0ZB20120611

Of course that is the worst case scenario according to the reuters article. But it was under discussion among the European finance ministers. And maybe is unlikely to happen. Any ideas on what may happen. My trading experience is a bit short to have dealt with such situations in the past. 1...

There is a big fat paragraph on the pakistani passport that says, "valid for all countries of the world except israel". I guess that explains how swell the relationship is. Both were formed on the basis of religious idealogy and both do not recognize each other's existence.:D

Oh and HurricaneUS . A person may be irreligious and impious and ignore injunctions in most muslim states including those in the middle east and the state would do nothing about it. But blasphemy regarding God or any of his Prophets(Jesus and Moses too) is a whole different subject here. It's...

add blasphemy to the list .... I have had relatives live in the middle east for a few decades. The trick is to mind your own business, work hard and not discuss religion and politics. No one will touch you then. I realize that it is very hard for westerners to understand but in the middle east...

Thank you so much for a thorough answer. Good day to you.

Oh brother. Too much fox news? Other than saudi arabia, no muslim country these days practises sharia law. In a place like dubai you are free to do anything you please... except public drunkeness and having sex on the beach or in public view. you may end up with some jail time for those 2. but...

Thanks Samri. What about setting up a free zone company in other emirates like RAK or Sharjah. Any disadvantages to that? And how many directors or shareholder can a company like the one you specified have? they all get visas right? which free zone dptg setup in? Thanks.

I'd be curious too. From what i've heard. Manual scalping ain't what it used to be.

To be honest, these bands were at their prime before i was born. But i never got to like those grunge and whiny screaming numetal and hip hop crap during latter years. Still grieving the death of real hard rock.

Yeah. Seinfeld was ok. But not Letterman. Jon Stewart is the gold standard..

Has it occured to you that perhaps the distrust of lawyers and bankers is a global phenomenon and not just an american safety mechanism?

Interesting how it has mutated into a discussion on whether or not I am from Pakistan or not. Funny place, the internet.:D

ahahaa. An iowan. That is farmer country right?

Thank you so much Samri.:) That arab thing I said is probably out of line. Shouldn't have said it in a public forum.

1. Yeah. I do come from an upper middle class family. A son of privilege if you may. Not loaded, but never had to worry about anything during my childhood. Hence the initial gasps of horror from my family of not choosing a typical prosperous career of an engineer,surgeon or an army...

and the "incredible story" here for me is exactly that. It's been nearly 7 or 8 years of 12 and 13 hour workdays for me. What other words should I use for actually coming across something entirely unknown and enticing all those years ago. A happy accident. Thats all.

What can I say RPEX. Now i know trolling may be a pretty cool in the states, it's not how i roll. sorry my articulation doesn't pass the shakespeare test. I did use a bit of humor expressing that wide eyed feeling noobs get when you look a chart the first time. Thats all. As you've probably read...

Life is pretty good here on an individual basis. But on a macroeconomic basis, the pakistani economy has all the ingredients resembling the argentine corralito, that could probably worsen the electricity shortages here and make the internet here inactive due to worker strikes and crap like that...
