0 | I'm not saying I don't like the idea of on-the-job training too, but you can't expect the company to do that. Training workers is not their job - they're building software. Perhaps educational systems in the U.S. (or their students) should worry a little about getting marketable skills in exchange for their massive inv... |
1 | So nothing preventing false ratings besides additional scrutiny from the market/investors, but there are some newer controls in place to prevent institutions from using them. Under the DFA banks can no longer solely rely on credit ratings as due diligence to buy a financial instrument, so that's a plus. The intent bein... |
2 | You can never use a health FSA for individual health insurance premiums. Moreover, FSA plan sponsors can limit what they are will to reimburse. While you can't use a health FSA for premiums, you could previously use a 125 cafeteria plan to pay premiums, but it had to be a separate election from the health FSA. Howeve... |
3 | Samsung created the LCD and other flat screen technology like OLED. a few years ago every flat screen came from Samsung factories and were reshelled. I think the 21 Hanns screen I am looking at now is Samsung and it is only a couple of years old. Samsung seem to be a good company. |
4 | Here are the SEC requirements: The federal securities laws define the term accredited investor in Rule 501 of Regulation D as: a bank, insurance company, registered investment company, business development company, or small business investment company; an employee benefit plan, within the meaning of the Employee Reti... |
5 | "Only relevant to those with fantasy economy teams. Seriously, Rand's fictional works never translate well into reality because, no matter how hard people try, that ""fiction"" element just can't be ignored. Test it yourself: Strip John Galt and his followers of everything they have which was created by or within the ... |
6 | Futures contracts are a member of a larger class of financial assets called derivatives. Derivatives are called such because their payoffs depend on the price of other assets (financial or real). Other kinds of derivatives are call options, put options. Fixed income assets that mimic the behavior of derivatives are cal... |

8 | Whenever you pay or withdraw some fund from your account, paypal takes approx 3% of the current currency value along with the fees. i.e. If you are paying/withdraw 100 unit of US Dollars to British pounds and if the current convertion rate is 1$=0.82GBP, then consider reducing 3% of the actual currency rate. So, the ap... |
9 | So you asked him in 2010 how he was gong to compete with DVD rental distributors like Netflix (which is what Netflix primarily was at the time) and Lovefilm and you were surprised that he was he said they were going to continue to compete as a DVD rental distributor just like the mentioned competitors? |
10 | In the US, I would say the risk is exactly the same. If your accounts are withing the FDIC amount (currently $250,000) your balance is 100% covered in case of a failure. You are giving up a larger network of ATMs in some cases. You are also perhaps giving up the number of branches you can visit, the hours the bank is... |
11 | I don't know what the fee is, I just made up $5 as an example. It doesn't surprise me at all that Comcast is charging $20. I don't really mind that I don't have on demand, it doesn't bother me. But after the disaster that CableCards were, there was no chance that tru2way was going to work if the industry had any say i... |
12 | "At any given moment, one can tally the numbers used for NAV. It's math, and little more. The Market Cap, which as you understand is a result of share value. Share value (stock price) is what the market will pay today for the shares. It's not only based on NAV today, but on future expectations. And expectations aren't ... |
13 | Chinese suppliers can quote their price in CNY rather than USD (as has been typical), and thus avoid the exchange risk from US dollar volatility- the CNY has been generally appreciating so committing to receive payments in US dollars when their costs are in CNY means they are typically on the losing end of the equation... |

They keep talking about ""only avilable to members of the Florida Bar"" but stop and think about how that doesn't make sense. Are they in a *florida* court or in a *federal* court? Or an IP/administrative setting? Some thi... |
15 | > monopoly > names 3 giant companies who compete with each other in almost every industry possible What happened to /economy :(. It used to be actual business minded people, now it's becoming another socialist echo chamber... Sad to see. |
16 | What happens would depend on company culture. At the very least they could pass it on to their manager. Or maybe the company just pays support staff by number of answered emails in which case you get the quickest pre-canned answer they can provide. But the net effect is they will continue to lose to alternatives bec... |
17 | We write them off as cheap knock offs because that's what they are. They are no match when they come up against the superior technology of the US and her allies - they are only a threat when these countries use them against their own people to stifle dissent. |
18 | My super fund and I would say many other funds give you one free switch of strategies per year. Some suggest you should change from high growth option to a more balance option once you are say about 10 to 15 years from retirement, and then change to a more capital guaranteed option a few years from retirement. This is... |
19 | "> You do realize that investors are protected from being sued right? Not usually, no. If the investor is a partner in the company then they're just as responsible for the debts of their business as any other partner. If they're just a capital investor with no interest in the company business then sure - you can't ... |
20 | "So you're basically saying that average market fluctuations have an affect on individual stocks, because individual stocks are often priced in relation to the growth of the market as a whole? Also, what kinds of investments would be considered ""risk free"" in this nomenclature?" |
21 | US government bonds are where money goes when the markets are turbulent and investors are fleeing from risk, and that applies even if the risk is a downgrade of the US credit rating, because there's simply nowhere else to put your money if you're in search of safety. Most AAA-rated governments have good credit ratings ... |
22 | Nonsense. In places where people have most kids, it doesn't matter how expensive baby care products are because most babies are born where they aren't used nearly as much, or at all. Sure, making them more expensive will help having less children in the first world, but that would change squat WRT the total number. |
23 | Either way the govt is going to get to a breaking point and it's going to be shitty and miserable until they get there (and obviously when they get there it will get worse before it gets better). This bond trade just prolongs the shitty/miserableness even longer. Who knows how many more people will die from govt sponso... |
24 | Yeah, I instinctively knew that the Middle East probably wouldn't be it, even without knowing jack about finance. So, Europe-wise, we're looking at Frankfurt and London, then? As for Asia, what about Hong Kong? Given that it is already becoming a center for instrumentation between different financial systems and its ... |
25 | "As long as the losing business is not considered ""passive activity"" or ""hobby"", then yes. Passive Activity is an activity where you do not have to actively do anything to generate income. For example - royalties or rentals. Hobby is an activity that doesn't generate profit. Generally, if your business doesn't cons... |
26 | No no - Casual dining restaurants have a business model that is increasingly obsolete, and rather than trying to adapt to changing market conditions, they're just blaming those dang kids. Sorry, but it's the market - if your product is bad, you won't succeed. Blame the market all you want, but it won't make a shred of... |
27 | The only reason I can think of would be if you were convinced that you couldn't hold on to your money. Treasury Bonds are often viewed as very safe investments, and often used in some situations where cash isn't appropriate.. Also, they typically have a somewhat patriotic theme, helping your country to grow. In additio... |
28 | I'm in both markets and there are a lot of factors. Distribution costs in NY are ridiculously high. Different states have different generation mixes, access to fuel, different regulatory costs, different taxes, different availability of green/renewable energy as well as different mandates, different types of restruc... |
29 | First, to answer the question. The benefit of a 401k is that you don't have to pay income tax on the money contributed nor do you pay capital gains tax on the money that accumulates. You get that with the restriction that you can't willy nilly remove and contribute money to the account (and you are taxed on withdrawa... |
30 | "the truth from the 'horse mouth"" - and no he's NOT alt-right, as he's painted by political interests from all sides.... Well, updates and flashnews: 1. Google pontificating on diversity and women's equality: Sergei Brin divorced after cheating on his high achieving brilliant wife with a junior staffer. Guess who lef... |
31 | The details of the 401(k) are critical to the decision. A high cost (the expenses charged within the) 401(k) - I would deposit only to the match, and I'd be sure to get the entire match offered. In which case, that $3000 might be good to have available if you start out with a tight budget. Low cost 401(k) w/match - a ... |
32 | Depending on what state you live in in the United States, your Canadian brokerage may be able to sell products within the existing RRSP.

34 | It seems like their main problem is not hiring - clearly they've hired some bright technical people. It just seems like the iPhone and Android came along and management refused to admit that the new platforms were going to compete with the Blackberry and its ecosystem. |
35 | Best job you could get was working for the government. Pension isn't as good now, but they still have one. And your healthcare is covered. Sacrifice some money while working to pay into those things. Won't be rich, but you'll be far from poor. And can live a satisfying life even if you are sole income for household... |
36 | "Ya it definitely helps, however it's not a must. Being a good leader is more about getting the right team together than being a visionary in technology or something of that sort. I think understanding technology is on the ""wants"" side of the equation, not the ""needs"" for when it comes to a great CEO, that's why t... |
37 | I was actually thinking of doing both, I already have a one sided card, I was thinking of doing an additional 2 sided, however, the single sided that I already have is more of a networking/advertising card that I post in random locations, and the new one will be my business contact card, maybe I will end up with three ... |
38 | Hmmmm, 1 or 2, yeah, maybe they were not a good fit for one reason or another. but 5?? Really, you gotta start thinking that maybe, just maybe, there's a chance that's Trump's the problem. #justsayin' is all. |
39 | "Based on the conversations in the comments, I believe a pragmatic solution would be the best immediate course of action, while still working on the long term addiction issues. The first step is to get your husband to agree to give you all of his credit cards and let you manage the money for a set period of time, say 3... |
40 | "I just can't come around to calling it ""taking advantage of"" when the means to act on them was put into existence knowingly. It's like saying you took advantage of the highway by travelling at, and not less than, the posted speed limit." |
41 | I suspect this is done at least in part in response to [this review by Edmunds](http://www.edmunds.com/tesla/model-s/2013/long-term-road-test/wrap-up.html) and a [similar one by Consumer Reports](http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/news/2014/08/consumer-reports-tesla-model-s-has-more-than-its-share-of-problems/index.htm... |

If so, [this article](http://www.investopedia.com/articles/stocks/08/public-companies-privatize-go-private.asp) might be of interest to you. ^(1) Actually, most of the time, they partner wit... |
43 | Nah I just don't believe anything I see on TV or read on the internet. Anyone can go onto www.imrightyourewrong.com and find whatever data supports they're argument. It's one big echo chamber and you're just some douchebag yankee squawking away behind his phone yammering about how dumb the rest of the world is and wond... |
44 | Agreed, this article is crap. I have no problem with venture capitalists. They give you the oppurtunity to attian: the capital, the tools, the hardware/software, the knowledge systems, the networking and right talent to work with for your innovation. I'll take that and burn through their capital, than use my own capi... |
45 | In order to do this, you would need to purchase an Amazon gift card from another online vendor that accepts PayPal and then use the Amazon gift card on the Amazon site. There are dozens (if not hundreds) of sites that sell Amazon gift cards online that accept PayPal. |
46 | So does a post-dated check have any valid use in a business or personal transaction? Does it provide any financial or legal protections at all? Yes, most definitely. You're writing a future date on the check, not past, to ensure that the check will not be deposited before that day. Keep in mind that this may change... |
47 | "Insurance companies on average make money by selling insurance, which means you lose money on average by dealing with them. The insurance is not gambling where the house always wins. This expression is literal in gambling, because that's how they set the odds. Insurance isn't necessarily similar. Example. Suppose th... |
48 | "I think you should evaluate the value of these so-called ""penny auction"" websites very carefully. Going to a random site, madbid .com, (which is British with UK prices, but it works just the same with US prices) they claim that someone has bought an iPod Touch 64GB for £21.18. It is £249 directly from Apple. Sold f... |

51 | Lol...going on a real tangent here, but why not. 1st: Do we send them aid? If so is it food, currency, or something else? Food MIGHT make sense as long as we are making sure it goes to people who are literally starving (and it doesn't get withheld by the government), currency would most likely not make sense because ... |

53 | "Well, the one variable you're forgetting is that we didn't have as much debt hanging over our heads as we do now. As I understand it, maintaining that conflict cost so much money, we're still paying for it today, the better part of a century later. Are you sure that the Federal government should undertake that level o... |
54 | It becomes a different game when you allow penny and ultra cheap stocks. People make much less plays, because the price of the stock doesn't change hardly ever, and when it does change you can end up with people making 10x money over night, and when that happens they sell everything and just camp on their cash till th... |
55 | I suppose that is true. If we take me anecdotally, i turn down down boring work. If I have some decent problems to solve, I perform. Payment isn't a factor. Though, I still don't want to take a job that pays less unless it is very interesting. |
56 | I can only speak to natural gas but I imagine the answer for electricity is the same. In general, yes, it is better to lock into a fixed price contract as in the long run, natural gas prices increase over time. However, if you locked (signed a fixed price contract) in prior to the economic downturn, most likely you we... |
57 | Calling banks 'evil' seems sensationalist. I think it's better to say that their reward-punishment tradeoff is skewed very heavily partly driven by governments being held hostage to fear of bank runs and other doomsday scenarios. Also, if you think about it, finance has never ever been a clean industry (and I say this... |
58 | Sure, you're happy to trust Page or Zuckerberg to put money to good use. But sometimes bad managers burn through company resources, desperately trying to save their jobs. Great managers with long term visions deserve a long leash, but companies with bad management can sometimes be helped with outside discipline. |
59 | So one approach would be purely mathematical: look at whichever has the higher interest rate and pay it first. Another approach is to ignore the math (since the interest savings difference between a mortgage and student loan is likely small anyways) and think about what your goals are. Do you like having a student loa... |
60 | Why should the rich who buy more expensive homes be subisdized by those who pay less, or from those who rent? A person who buys a 500k home in a high property tax area wins twice. Once but having more tax breaks by being able to deduct more than your average working class person who buys a house at 250k and the second ... |
61 | That's not how the world works. That's not how any of this works. They knew he didn't have a degree. You don't get recruited before you graduate because you're a useless expendable. He's going places. And they'll probably pay for him to finish his degree at some point. Either way, he's gonna be rich. |
62 | If she lives by herself, my guess would be that she qualifies as a household of one. Either way, her monthly income is below the threshold, so she should be eligible. Per the linked website The only way to determine if your household is eligible for SNAP benefits is to apply. I'd say it's worth a try. |
63 | It's impossible to be definite without knowing the details of your plans, so you should make sure you consult the providers. However there are some general principles: However all that is the general case, and yours might be different. So look up the rules of each plan. |
64 | Preferred stock is traded on the market, so you can just buy it like any other. The symbol for a preferred stock is the ticker symbol followed by a dash and a letter for each class of preferred stock.

67 | Before you even enroll in a good financial school, register for an account with a bank that allows you to manage a stock portfolio. I prefer TD Ameritrade.

68 | If some one ever offers High returns and low risk they are either extremely stupid or scamming you. If they did find a high return low risk investment a smart person would buy it then repackage it as a low return low risk investment and then sell it to you.

70 | For the US government, they've just credited Person B with a Million USD and haven't gained anything (afterall, those digits are intangible and don't really have a value, IMO). Two flaws in this reasoning: The US government didn't do anything. The receiving bank credited the recipient. If the digits are intangible, suc... |

72 | Yes, this is common and a perfectly normal use of your ssn#. The trustees of the estate can get in a lot of trouble with the IRS if they disburse assets to you if you are subject to tax garnishment (i.e. you didn't pay your taxes) |
73 | >When reading a publication, do you only pay for the pages you read? No, but many would consider this an innovative and wonderful pricing mechanism. >It's a package deal, not a rip-off. Similarly, many consider package deals like cable TV where you get a 1000 channels you don't want to pay for a rip-off. |
74 | I already said there's no food safety concern. The issue is it's gross. So yes, as I said, it is just my opinion that I think it's icky. That's a perfectly reasonable cause to not eat something. I'm not suggesting it shouldn't be allowed. I'm suggesting it's reasonable that people don't want to eat it. |
75 | "A warrant is similar to a call option (the right to buy stock at a certain price), with the difference that warrants are filled by the issuing company with new shares, diluting the existing shareholders' ownership.

76 | It probably doesn't matter since your credit and your checking are at the same institution, but I don't like to let my credit auto draft my checking. I always do it the other way around (and keep them at different places) I feel like there is more control when my money is gone that way. |

83 | I believe this argument is most often used when considering which debts to pay back first, or when there are other options available such as investment options, building up an emergency fund, or saving for a large purchase. In that case, it's simply justifying making minimum payments and paying more over the life of t... |
84 | It's called competition. Reddit is funny, they love the electronic revolution when it comes to music, games, TV, piracy, etc. but hate that it will doom bookstores. The sword cuts both ways. Maybe independent bookstores time has come. (when I say reddit, I am talking in general terms) |
85 | Name one nation state that has survived more than 20 minutes without taxation. People won't pay if they don't have to, things don't get built if people don't pay. Take a holiday to Somalia if you want to see a libertarian paradise in action. |
86 | I think what's screwing up my calculation is the (reL), return on equity levereged figure. The beta for KORS apparently is -0.58, so when I use the formula reL = rf + (ßL)(rm - rf), I get -0.0048 as my reL. Am I doing my beta wrong? Am I supposed to use a different figure for my beta?
