Quote from marketsurfer:




i thought you lived on the beach in a surfer shack, denouncing all material possessions beyond sustenance.

:eek:

Electricity is not free, nor is water or food, nor taxes or insurance. Some money is required to meet the basic needs, so a interest bearing account that would meet them and some extra for potential emergencies is prudent.

Living to excess, mortaged to the hilt because of being married to a princess who lives to buy material things is not living in my opinion.

Did your previous wife (princess as you called it) go by the first name of Tammy Fea?

No, but her nickname given to her by her friends was Maya.

In many English translations of Hinduism, Maya is believed to be one of three bonds that must be cast off in order to achieve moksha (liberation of the soul from the cycle of death and rebirth).

I attest that ending my role as prince to her "highness" was indeed a form of liberation.

Ask them about both....as with all firm's, just ask for copies of balance sheets as you make out your U-4 application.

I say that for the benefit of traders and Firm's. No reason to start rumors when you can simply call them and ask .....

Nobody left that would be considered major (Only Steve or Greg would fit that bill).

There was a well regarded employee (not the CFO) who I think your speaking about, that dealt with traders and their checks who left in October, but he was replaced by a former employee who had this very same job when he left over a year ago.

Not a big deal. I think that the guy they have now was making a lot more than the guy that just left and thats why there was a change back then. But as business has picked up, I think they were stuck and needed a solid guy who knew the job, and they brought him back.

Questions about capital would be given to those who ask when joining the firm, and really these figures are only the business of class B members and those looking to become class B members, not the general public on ET.

I was at an expo once talking to some fellow traders and rumor was that during the bubble that Hold Bros. actually could move the nas....with their 10% market share of market moving volume and some pretty seasoned daytraders.
