Seems.... relevant.

I was thinking of pursuing my masters in something of similar sort here at OSU (Maybe on the Quant side). But, they make you do stuff. Not sure I like that idea lol...

Sounds good to me. Only thing I don't like, is Aussie/Cable etc are not doing a very good job of getting back below their points that unlock a leg higher.

Further Decoupling?
Never mind. Prices are working there way back down.

I thought about doing math. Took calculus 2 and calculus 3 at Georgia Tech while was in high school. trading firms love engineering/math backgrounds, but you can prove yourself anyway.

went to one trading place, had to do 80 math questions in 8 minutes. the competition is insane, one kid did all of them. There were some from oxford math that failed. I luckily passed.

edit: dont think I am getting the position though

not shit.. what a circus! from the imf who would be broke if they bailed out Italy. (whose gonna bail out the rest). to Madonnas vaginal tightening system (batteries not included). no matter what happens.. the piggs are losing gdp!!!!!!!!!
it dont matter who bails out who.. the piggs losing gdp means, Germany loses a big part of its export customers. whose gonna bail out Germany. all the austerity has yet to show up. more people w/o a job buy less.
Obviously... As shown here in the US on the record setting black Friday sales... Most ever! Even surpassing the old record set in 2008!



Oh wait..... *facepalm*

Yeah, figure that one out.

I wonder how many people were actually buying with cash, and not with credit.

I bet a really small amount. Fricking idiots never learn anything...

one day aint the season.. not paying your mortgage + tax /insurance. frees up a few bucks. hell if you dont have a job. more time to spend at the mall and spend that unemployment check on black Friday.
