What did that take you, two seconds??...It's must be easy to zip up an empty bag, as I wouldn't personally know...

Less than that, fast CPU and kickass compression algo.

What...there are TWO Whales posting on this board? I thought Magister Ludi was the only one.

I know it wasn't directed at me. I was asking a general question and then added my opinion based on my experience and intentions

Okay. It seemed you were getting unnecessarily upset over his comment. Btw, the movie was American Graffiti.

I'm going to use my whale profits to buy you some newer references than Chip Reese and Michael Jordan.

This thread is fascinating. Our fearless learder has found a way to make $2700 a month free money. What's wrong with $2700 a month? It's more than you would ever get from a Social Security check. It should cover a mortgage or rent.

This whole process can't be taking you more than an hour a day so it's certainly worth your time.

$2700 a month might not be a living in New York City, but it will certainly get you by in Fort Wayne Indiana.

[Population: 255,784
Median rent: $661
Median home value: $99,800
Rent to income ratio: 0.2 to 1
Home value to income ratio: 2.3 to 1]

So take your $2700 to the bank every month and be happy that you found the holy grail and have solace in the fact that you are the only poster on Pace Advantage in 18 years to prove to the masses that you have consistently beaten the game for a provable (side) income.

I know that I would love to have such a sure thing in my quiver.

I have been influenced by at least half the posters on this thread even if we handicap differently, bet differently, have different beliefs about bets and outcomes, and disagree philosophically about the game and it's worth. S'all good!

That's one thing that makes the stock market investing so monstrously superior. If you are doing it properly, all the work is done up front. You identify great businesses you would like to own and wait until one or more of them reaches a price that makes sense. When one does, you buy and you check the price 10 years later.
And if you show a LOSS after the 10 years...what do you do then? Select another one or more "overlaid businesses that you'd like to own"...and then wait another 10 years to try and get even? No Thanks!

I don't understand most horseplayers. They call horseracing "boring" because they have to wait for a few minutes in-between races...but then they sing praises to ANOTHER gambling game...where they have to sit around and "do nothing" for TEN YEARS, before they realize a profit.

Yes...he directed his post at me. Was I looking for "personal gain"?

Well, I re-read PA's post again and he was responding to rsetup, whose response also was not directed at either you or PA.

But, I may have missed the hidden messages around here.
