Is this Citygroup thing going to affect IB?

Aha! A French Canadian who migrated to the states. Thats okay.
I suppose you trade with IB and might be a little bit paranoid that
IB's account holders are going under with Citibank. Don't worry...

I wrote that I had been livivng in North America for four years. As far as I'm concern Quebec and the rest of Canada are in North America. So your assumptions are wrong, not to mention that I wouldn't migrate to states because I don't want to.

Where do you live in a penthouse? New York? Chicago? Los Angeles?

:cool:

No, much better place - Vancouver, BC
 
I've been trading for 3 years and I've seen dozens of traders who knew a lot more then I about stocks, economy, fundamental analisys and other stuff. Some of them had MBA, some were investment bankers, former brockers etc. Now I can count those who left in trading just using fingers of one hand and I - dumbest of the dumbest am still in business and make a good living of it.
What a paradox!

I wrote before that C going under sounded unrealistic but think about it... if 20 years ago somebody had tell you that in 10 years one of the greatest and powerful states(USSR) would collapse - would you believe in that?

Thanks for support and excuse my mistakes.
 
My guess is that the Employee/Owners at The World's Largest Airline would take your Citi concerns to heart (play catchy theme song here, "Ba Ba Ba-bum, Da Da Da-dum)."

Who says big business is bulletproof?

All the same, with regard to the question of IB accounts, there is federal insurance.

I guessed I assumed North America meant the USA. Oops.

I just noticed the "eh" at the end of one of your sentences and
living just a matter of miles from Canada, I have heard the "eh"
many times so I figured you were indeed in Canada.

I live just south of Seattle, Wa., so welcome to the great NW!
And yes, Vancouver beats NY, LA, and Chicago.

I didn't mean to insult you, I was just pissed of a little by stockman's posting.

Thank You! In fact, I just moved to Van from Toronto - what a difference.

No, didn't feel insulted. Don't know much about Toronto, but I
do know Vancouver is a nice area.

Not only the USSR thing, but how about when the Berlin Wall
came down? Now that was amazing...If you think about it, just
about anything is possible, given enough time.
