    Fooled by randomness by Nassim

    I am but it’s perfectly boring, vanilla call dispersion on equities. Couldn’t be more boring, but it’s an easy trade these days. I was thinking about your Audi the other day, told that story to someone. :)

    Interactive Brokers margin loan for real estate purchase?

    This is stupid when you can easily get a mortgage that has no recourse except for the deed to the property. Why would you risk your own money on owning the house when you don't have to? All to save a couple of points on $400k? My $400k grows at 21%CAGR, so it's a ridiculously easy decision to...

    Boycott Michael Moore

    Shareholders are free to sell their shares if they feel that executive compensation is inappropriate. But that requires people to take personal responsibility for their finances. Why is it anyone's business what an executive is paid unless they are a shareholder in that company?

    Boycott Michael Moore

    "This system truly needs to be up-ended, and we need to create and structure a different economic order that has at its foundation democracy, where you and I have a say in how this economy is run. " -Michael Moore, KQED, Sept 2009 "I'd like to introduce democracy into the economy, not just...

    Boycott Michael Moore

    Thanks for the thoughtful response. But I disagree with being called crazy. What is crazy about standing up and calling Michael Moore a hypocrite, and calling him out on his political agenda? The man isn't even distributing 'thinly veiled' propaganda anymore. I think that it is immoral, if not...

    Boycott Michael Moore

    Not because he has money. I like money. Because he is a hypocrite who is pushing a socialist agenda. Not even in a right-wing-we're-gonna-call-everything-socialist-because-its-scary way, but a totally serious, totally mindblowing stupid way. Then again, if you want to support that, you just...

    Boycott Michael Moore

    He doesn't propose regulating capitalism. He proposes ending it.

    Boycott Michael Moore

    Capitalism is evil, so says Michael Moore in his latest film, "Capitalism: A Love Story". Indeed capitalism has been particularly cruel to Moore, who has an estimated net worth of $50,000,000. Imagine the suffering he experiences at his 10-acre lake front estate. Please join us in boycotting...

    I consider that to be a bare minimum requirement in business-class internet service. You can get the same level of service with business-class DSL from Sprint for much less money. You are missing the point, but I will try to tell you again. Your T1 circuit is delivered over DSL, into the...

    T1 line

    So you paid $500 annually for membership rights, $1250 annually for an IP allocation you probably did not need, and $300 additional monthly for your T1-over-HDSL service? That is a grand total of $5350 in additional annual expenses that you paid for an equivalent technology, and on the behalf of...

    All of the above statements are false, none of you have any idea what you are talking about. As I have already told you, modern T1 circuits are delivered with DSL technology. The circuits typically terminate in the same equipment at the telco CO as the rest of the DSL connections. A T1 makes...

    T1 circuits have been delivered over HDSL, HDSL2, and HDSL4 for more than 10 years in the United States. You can read more about the history of HDSL here. I suggest that you not order a T1 unless you like the idea of paying $375 more per month for your DSL. Thanks for the chuckle. :)
