    The Undisputed LAWS of the Financial Markets?

    INVESTING HOT! 
    The only market which is zero-sum is the options market. (Futures may be as well, but I haven't ventured into those yet, so I'm relatively uncertain - suffice it to say that cash-settled markets are probably zero-sum) Or, negative sum if you consider broker costs. (This is not to say that you...

    I need your Advice..

    Depending on how the discussion board works, it could be quite useful or may drive away workers. I say this because, I would guess that being able to have some discussion between the two parties before spending any money would be great, but if it is an open discussion like this board, then...

    The newbie (Stock Market)

    INVESTING 
    Actually, Walley has a good point, you can go to sites such as UpDown.com and create a virtual portfolio. You can learn a lot of the basics by investing like this; such as how to enter a limit order, and what that means. And, the reason I suggest UpDown is because you can earn money if your...

    Society Brainwash vs. Fastlane.. part 2

    Actually, I watched something interesting on TED the other day... Might help answer the question of happiness as it regards to jobs, as well as other things: Dan Gilbert asks, Why are we happy? | Video on TED.com Certainly worth a look. But, basically, he states that our mind compensates...

    Looking to get in the Game. So many options

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Lol, of course not, it's better! You're the 4th person on the list... More importantly, I think Redshft hit it right on the nose. I've noticed a LOT of fitness and supplement products/blogs coming up lately, and personally I'm not sure why. (I'm also, presumably, not that healthy - nor health...

    Why You Should ONLY Invest in Your Own Backyard

    REAL ESTATE 
    I think it has something to do with your signature... On a side note, I love all of this drama! You guys should all get together and make a soap opera. It reminds me of high school... Golly that Jackie is a real nerd. But SteveO, he's so dreamy... And then there's Russ, the...

    Rule one stocks

    INVESTING 
    Well, looking back at the year over year data, I can see why each of those looks enticing; however, with the most recent few quarters of earnings, I'd say only CTSH looks appealing, as the rest have been down from previous years. Granted, of course, this year most companies would be expected to...

    The newbie (Stock Market)

    INVESTING 
    I agree with JScott on this one, you definitely have to do your research with the markets, especially stocks. You can try jumping in, but you basically won't have any idea what you're doing, or why you're making or losing money. If you decide to look into fundamental analysis more, you'll...

    Kids getting lazier

    OFF-TOPIC 
    There are schools here in Ohio that either want to, or have, changed the lowest possible % grade in a class to 50%. If you do nothing, you get a 50%. And, like, a 60% is a D, so... where's the reward for trying anything at all? I don't understand people's ideas, sometimes. :coco:

    The Great Name Game!

    One peculiar way of naming comes to mind... why not after certain historical figures? For instance, the smallest room may be called Napoleon Bonaparte, and the largest may be Abraham Lincoln. Could include your favorite people, or perhaps if there are any local stories, so you could have some...
