  1. No, it doesn't work!!!

    The face-to-face solution doesn't work! I was told: You cannot handle it.

    But somebody else can handle it, like handle123. He bought a $750k brand new house to let his 13 round-table traders live in it-rent-free. He provides 10 year-contracts to them, paying them 1k a month no matter what: lose or win. He pays for their escort services and dental/vision insurance.

    I can understand the vision insurance part, because traders use their eyes to a lot, gluing their eyes to the computer screen and getting lots of (or should I use American usage: tons of) radiation of harmful X-rays. Yes, they will eventually die of eye cancer, so vision insurance is necessary.

    But dental insurance? I don't get it. How is it related to trading? They bite the keyboards?

    The reason I am interested in handle123's traders is that I was told one must know what other traders are doing. So I am very curious about how other traders are doing. You see, if, as a trader like John Paulson, you know what Goldman Sachs' trader by the name of Torrier (similar enough, the French guy who was convicted recently) was doing with his sub-prime mortgage instrument, you wouldn't be dazzled by the fancy name of "High-Grade Structured Growth Fund" and you would go ahead and short this "High-grade" shit.

  2. Tried many times, many things didn't work.

    Something didn't this morning, Tuesday, Aug/6/2013.

    So I am going back to an old method. Hopefully, that will work.
