    Wanna stop government spending? Please vote here...

    OFF-TOPIC 
    This is more about making the public "feel" better about spending than actually cutting it. If they were serious about cutting, they would employ all 4 of these ideas and get a new 4 every month for the entire year and employ those too. According to the budget cutting committee's report I...

    What happens with the 401K if...

    You can't opt out of the 401k match in my company. Why would you even ask such a question!? Of course companies aren't obligated to give you stock options or anything else, period... ROFL... - Hakrjak :coco:

    Time to sell the news?

    INVESTING 
    Wasn't intending this thread to become another debate on Hyperinflation (Which people here have been predicting for what, 4 years now without it happening?) I will say though, that you are getting too caught up in the fundamental analysis and forgetting the X-factors. This is very similar to...

    Time to sell the news?

    INVESTING 
    Looks like from today's reaction, the market loves the new congress, they love the Fed's $600 billion injection, and they love that Obama came out and said he's open to extending all of the Bush tax cuts. Now the question is.... Do we go higher or lower from here? The argument for higher, I...

    Time to sell the news?

    INVESTING 
    Concerned about shorter term moves that can be very large. i.e. if the market is going to drop 1000 pts, I want to get out of the way. I'm not satisfied with an average 5% per year gain over 40 years, and would like to increase the odds to around 10% if possible. This is free money from my...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I read the book. I was honestly expecting a lot of fluff, and was pleasantly surprised by the amount of real content and usable info I found (Especially once I got about 1/2 way through). Good job MJ, I'm sure this venture will be a massive success for you. I also like the fact that you own...

    I hear you brother. I know you are the poker expert, so I defer to you in most of these metaphors. What I was trying to say was that most people can play average poker, and eek out a small mathmatical edge playing a system... But a truely great poker player increases his edge by occasionally...

    INVESTING 
    I see market timing like bluffing in Poker. If you can do it, you don't have to be great at it... You just have to be able to do it 1 time more than 50%, and you've created a huge upside for yourself. - Hakrjak

    Time to sell the news?

    INVESTING 
    So we've gotten around 1250 pts run up in the Dow recently, which I think nobody here predicted..... (Which begs the question why I'm opening up this new thread, but why not? haha) -- I think the market has factored in a Republican victory tomorrow for taking the house, and the Fed starting to...

    Warren Buffett: Forget gold, buy stocks

    HOT! INVESTING 
    My point was -- if you analyze something long enough, you can talk yourself into anything. Consider taking a more basic approach. Another thing to consider -- the stock market seems to be kicking off another bull market. Do you want to be stuck in precious metals when everybody pulls their...

    Warren Buffett: Forget gold, buy stocks

    HOT! INVESTING 
    Once you have lived through a few bubbles, you can recognize them with ease. Warren Buffet has lived through more bubbles than any of us on this board (I don't think we have any 80 yr old investors here do we?) Gold is over, or soon to be over. You can try to justify buying it at these...

    Facebook movie thread

    EXECUTION 
    I couldn't agree more with this concept. I actually started Facebook in 1995. Yep, you heard it here first.... I created an Internet company with a product called "The Digital Business Card"... The product was basically a Facebook profile, which would have your picture, some personal info, a...

    Wall Street movie sequel

    OFF-TOPIC 
    My wife and I saw it in the theater opening weekend... We were surprised that most people there were 35+, and there weren't very many at all. I guess the young kids just don't "get it" when it comes to Gekko ;) -- I sure appreciated them revisiting this classic though, because I was interested...

    I'm good at Sportsinvestment, but my capital is too low

    HOT! 
    This is a serious business, and I'm surprised that you don't read more about professional sports bettors on the Internet -- because professional poker players are now EVERYWHERE. I think the main reason is that the guys who do this for a living reside in Las Vegas, and scout the casinos each...

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Agree with Biophase that most of those classes are attended by a bunch of idiots on some company's dime just to get a certificate of completion. If you are attending on your own dime, you are more likely to pay attention -- but if they just read to you out of a book for 5 days, it could be a...

    Is the FED investing in US Equities?

    INVESTING 
    Hearing rumors today on CNBC and radio that the FED may be responsible for the current stock market rally. Lending money to banks to buy equities with? What are everybody's thoughts on this? If this is true, would this make you want to buy equities more or own them less? IMHO it shows 2...

    Wow what happened?

    I feel like I was a major contributor there for many years answering lots of newb questions, and spending a lot of time there. They never recognized my contribution in any way, and after awhile it started to just get lame -- So I bailed... I imagine the story is the same for a lot of their big...
