    "if you think you are an idiot, Mr Pelt, then you will act like an idiot" :)

    "if they serve different purposes, Mr Pelt, then what does that mean in relation to the idiots who trade them"?

    Tort Law

    A tort is a civil wrong. There are a variety of tortious acts. The vast majority of tortious acts require the plaintiff to prove that the defendant was Negligent.

    In order for a defendant to be negligent to a plaintiff, the plaintiff must prove that the defendant owed the plaintiff a Duty of Care.

    There are 4 separate points to proving a Duty of Care exists. If any one of these points fail, then the case will fail.

    Any student who cannot fully explain the 4 points required to prove a Duty of Care exists, may step up and receive their "dime", so that their mother can be called on the telephone to tell her that you will be home for good next week!

    Trading

    "What relevance does the above lecture have in relation to trading"

    "Mr Pelt, seen as you are the only idiot who is currently opening your mouth, discuss " :)

    Well... I would think that would mean the participants have different goals, needs in mind. I.e., if one needs to exchange currency for some reason, it would make no sense to be trading the S&P.

    "If the participants have different goals and needs, Mr Pelt, what does that tell us about them"?

    Just to be clear... before I have a think on this...

    The question is... what does the topic of the lecture have to do with trading?

    OR

    Is the question... what does the CONSEQUENCE(being sent home) of not understanding the topic/lecture have to do with trading?

    point that may help..i started to read up on Tort Law due to necessity..made notes as per SQ3R..well known academic study method..could never really get it all worked out in my head so that i could rattle it off without checking notes..

    then..due to a very serious necessity..let's just say an idiot wanted me to part with a nice bit of money..and..knowing how the whole stupid thing works..i told the idiot to fu*k off..and i will do it myself

    i can now rattle off the 4 points that must be proved by the plaintiff to show that a defendant was Negligent..without even thinking about it !!!

    believe it or not..most people don't even know what a Tort is..let alone how to go about proving Negligence.and then you wonder how all the thick idiots who stand up in a court room..on behalf of another person..even get to be there..it is Obvious that they would not have lasted a week in the Professor's lecture hall :)

    think this has nothing to do with successful trading..think again !!!!

    it now gets a bit harder as the first lecture is over :)

    "Mr Pelt, if a person is Deaf and Blind, do you think that they Can easily Fall "?

    if you are smart..and i mean really smart..you will work this out very quickly..but..do not let that put you off..remember.. question..answer.. question.. answer
