    Options/Stock Trading

    i don't think you get the sortof psychological warfare that is in poker in trading. there is market manipulation, like putting in a big sell order to influence the market when you dont intend for it to go through, or smoething. but this stuff verges on the illegal, so its not that like...

    Options/Stock Trading

    there are many levels of trading. the tafe guy would most likely be a phone jockey, he wouldnt trade on principle (trying to make the bank his own money). His clients would be mum and dad investors, the middle ground is working at a large bank, say JP morgan or UBS, and trading on behalf...

    Is this a good deal for a laptop?

    hah, what store is this? yes, people. an extra gig of ram would be nice, so would a quad-core cpu, and hell, why not 300gb hd. you have to have some sense though. That asus would come with a tv tuner and mouse aswell.

    No one thinks big of you ad

    Corporate Finance I Scailing

    yeah, the uni's perfectly okay letting half a course fail because they made the test too hard. it's not in their interests for most of their graduates having F's in subjects and therefore making the uni look bad cos they can't get jobs. same as they're not gonna give everyone HD's cos it...

    David Jones
