95% are losers
- Thread starter oldtime
- Start date
here, I will do your work for youQuote from oldtime:
let me guess, you want to do a story about how ordinary common people get screwed. This time using options, but you will need a few success stories about the few who made millions.
That is why no one reads the New York Times anymore.
check out your new thread you loser
like I said, "They are not talking about people like you and me."
They are talking about the people that write for the New York Times, and the bracket traders on cnbc
If you want to learn more about options, check out "Options Action"
Did you know you can buy a dividend paying stock and use the dividend to buy an option against it?
Geez, treat this guest with a little respect. Don't immediately start slagging him. But he is probably better off starting his own thread. I certainly hope somebody will give Popper the scoop.
he is from the New York Times, trying to pretend right off the bat that he is some kind of a bigshot who should be respectedQuote from billyjoerob:

what is your opinion of the New York Times?
I think most on ET if they read it is just to get an opinion of what 95% of what all losers will probably do
and he wants you to email him at nathaniel.popper@nytimes.com
to tell him your personal story about how you lost
the New York Times is for the 95% who are losers
that's what attracted him to this thread
He has no idea what I was originally talking about
Step away from the computer . . .
Oldtime,
He seems perfectly legit. Here's a list of articles written by him.

As for your opinion of the New York Times, I'm not in a position to agree or disagree.
Having said that, this could be a losing trader encouraging all of us to write to this guy and complain. Trouble is, not all of us are losing. I'm actually ahead, by a bit.

that's the problem, he is legit, this is the New York Times, dumbed down news for a dumbed down population, gathered from ET, with no understanding of trading, just how bad it hurts when you loseQuote from SimpleTrades:

he doesn't really want to understand why a butterfly went bad
he just wants it easy, and he throws around ny times like that gives him special privileges
95% losers attracts him like a fly on shit, because that is who he writes for
he just did a google search, he has no idea what this thread is all about
he just took his head out of his ass long enough to come up with something shallow
it's just a cheap shot
typical of ny times or people magazine
they don't want to talk about trading
they just want to find one of the 95% gullible and do a story about how they were so fooled
and it just rotates, real estate, buying a home, opening a restaurant, herbalife, 401k
they write for losers, and 95% are losers at almost anything they attempt
and that is who their loser bosses tell them they are writing to and for
ah man, how I long for the old days when you could hardly wait to get your weekly copy of Barrons. Even if you didn't understand it, it made you feel smarter after you read it.

I stopped trusting specific sources a long time ago. I find I read a lot of different opinions with little thought for where, or from whom, it is being written. I just read, use what knowledge I have, and then draw my own conclusions, whether or not they're correct.
