    HOT! CRYPTO CHAT 
    Looks like a shorting opportunity. But my platforms don't allow shorting BTC, so I'm sitting this one out.

    Dude. Come on. I disagree with @Supa on politics, but he's totally right here. Continuing to discuss politics here is disrespectful to our host.

    That's quite the bet! I'd be more inclined to take the opposite side. Bulls make money. Bears make money. Pigs get slaughtered. Gold has had quite the run. I won't say there isn't more opportunity to the upside, but the higher it climbs the more room there is to fall.

    Three Masked Men Broke Into Our House While My Girlfriend Slept Alone Inside...

    I don't think I've ever used a super soaker without getting myself a little wet. I'd want a protective suit/gloves/mask before using something like that.

    Hopefully it's clear that we're describing cultural differences, not racial differences. It's easy to conflate the two, and natural for people to be surprised when they start doing business with different cultures. There are East-Asian cultures where the norm is for each party to try and take...

    Thanks for clarifying. In your previous post it kinda sound like you'd double the price as soon as you figured the client was Indian. A practice that would be problematic. This post clarifies that you watch for certain *behaviors* that will trigger the higher quote. This is the way.

    I'm trying to picture how this works in practice. At what point do you or your employees decide "ok, this person is getting the 2x rate."

    It's a national defense issue, and the US government recognizes the problem. There's a lot of money to be made producing drones for the military.

    Does trading (stock/bonds/crypto) make CENTS?

    INVESTING 
    I totally agree that Need is the toughest one here. And that I strongly prefer businesses where it's obvious what need they're filling. Heck, I really prefer it to be tangible. My background is in manufacturing. I sidestepped describing the need it fills as that discussion is rather esoteric...

    If you'd care to elaborate where it fails the CENTS framework I'd appreciate it. I see it as similar to being an author: it's very difficult to be good enough to make it, but if you do the payoff is there.

    How does being an individual trader, working with your own money, fit into the fastlane framework? I'll take a stab at it and would like to see what yall think. Control: If it's just you, making the decisions on tactics and strategy, and executing the trades you have control. Entry: It's VERY...

    Depends on your timeframe. It ALWAYS depends on timeframe, and it's really unfortunate that people usually discuss without mentioning timeframes. In the very short term there's room to go up more. Stock prices never move in a straight line for long, so after a huge move like we've just seen one...
