    Successful traders: why don't you move to a 0% capital gains tax country?

    Correct, state tax rates for these are zero but you still have a federal liability. Other states have zero tax rates also. I'd love to retire in Wyoming, go fly fishing and hiking.

    Successful traders: why don't you move to a 0% capital gains tax country?

    A few reasons from what I'm familiar with: First, as has been mentioned, US citizens are taxed an their world-wide income. Second, just trading through a foreign business entity would likely be considered a Foreign Personal Holding Company and income would still be taxed even if you don't...

    Saudi Arabia king offers $150BN for facebook

    The king then fired his advisors, threw it into the dustbin.... personal meeting with Zuckerburg on 1/25/11 (a meeting that was missed by everyone else in the world except for Iran's media)... this is not real.

    US is in recovery mode

    we've been through these before and will again in the future. I am amazed at how accurately things are unwinding here after the recession: ppl were talking about years of very slow growth and this is what it has been so far.

    I need a 5 digit MT4 dealer that accepts Clients from the USA

    Does this mean that you can code an algorithm, post it to your account and they will execute per your algorithm? I'm looking through their (askobid) website now.. but thought I'd ask as this is new to me.

    Why do America's police need an armored tank?

    because they are cool and they aren't paying for it. If you had the option between a BMW or a Ford Focus, and your company was going to pay for it, which would you choose? Now think of yourself as a policeman with an annual budget funded by OPM, which would you buy? The cool one right?

    Facebook worth 60 billion someday?

    If every person on the planet bought everything they own from fb, then it could be worth a lot more. I think it was valued at 500 billion not to long ago.. per some memory of an article I read. Seems too high to me.

    Anyone believe these returns?

    Nope, not for me. Notice the 'bumps' in the middle? I like my equity curves flat and slightly sloped! That's my thaang.

    My account value reaches $600,000 for the first time; launching incubator hedge fund

    No, these guys run a mutual fund actually. They did make one really smart move early on.. all the great managers in the industry were leaving to start hedge funds. They were going to start a hf, but b/c of the herd rushing into that market, they figured that they would do better remaining as a mf.

    My account value reaches $600,000 for the first time; launching incubator hedge fund

    I second what Tony says here. An area fund started with two fund managers and about $7M AUM capital 5 years ago. After 3 years of beating the market they were at $7M in AUM (a few $ had been withdrawn). They then added a marketing partner and in 2 years they are at $55M AUM. Marketing...
