  3. Id have to agree that their is a gender bias. If this was a 30 year old man, yeah he would be cruxified in the courts. But shes a very attractive, white, blond, female, in a mans world no way. She might even get a token 3 years, but it would be disputed in court, and probably taken down to probabtion.

  4. What ever happen to the interviewing of business people, and doing investigative reporting. It seemed that back in 2000 and 2001 they were always investigating new enrons and worldcoms. Nowadays, they basically have either young girls reading the news or hot milfs reading the news. Im not saying its bad, but whatever happened to the interviews with the soros or rupert murdocks. Or why no interviews with eddie lampert.

  5. CNBC is crap. Pure and simple.

    Impossible to keep the audio on, inane commentary and sound effects all day long.

    If you want to look at legs and more, there's plenty of porn on the net. CNBC is a joke.

  6. I just bought a new car and when the salesman found out I was a trader, he started telling me how he's been selling covered calls for years, and he paid for 5 kids' college education this way.

    I didn't want to get into a discussion of the fact he's really selling naked puts, cuz expaining that one even to a broker gets pretty funny looks.

    As to the hot blonde teacher, she deserves an award.

  7. Bestfriend-

    OK, I need an option lesson. I thought there was a big difference between selling a CC and selling a naked put, in that you actually own the stock with the CC, but not with the naked put.

    Thanks

    You guys should really try the bob pisani indicator. Every time pisani comes on and talks about how the market looks great, sell it. 8 out of the past 10 times they've holed it right after. I bet its the guys on the NYSE just screwing with him.

    Becky does brighten the morning up...only on mute tho.
