Seems like a bad choice to me given that ISE already has an Options exchange called Gemini.

I think they should be transferable, but they should only last for 5 years or some other reasonable fixed term. Make it long enough that there is some stability; but not so long that it becomes something that is like a real estate or miner

It enforces price priority, not price-time priority. Exchanges can use pro-rata, etc. at the same price level; and if multiple exchanges offer the same price level, a BD is free to choose any of those to route to.

The $30K vs. $100K isn't the real comparison though. The pilot starts at $30K, but goes to $48K. The MDX is only 7 seats, but is also basically a Pilot for $58K. A Model X should come in around $80K, assuming it is just a bit more th

The pilot is pretty popular as an 8 seater. It's rear seats fold flat giving you a reasonable cargo area when you don't have the 3 people in the third row. The seats themselves aren't very cramped, but getting in/out i

They'll be allowed back on the road; but you can bet that there will be backlash about them losing performance because of it.

In NY the first year is safety only; but year 2 and on are emissions + safety (depending on the county you register your car in, some never need emissions). The safety inspection only costs $10; IIRC the emissions + safety is $37.

Its better to make the extra cash in the meantime and then have to take a pay cut than to not have the money at all. I will say that by the third time he's demanding more money with another offer; they should have said, "good luck

They have to pay you not to work if they elect to enforce it; the contract actually says that. They don't actually enumerate who is a competitor, but in practice they aren't interested in enforcing against Google, Facebook etc.

As a counterpoint, I'm not sure why anyone would use a broker when it is clear they also need to get paid; and you can call a dozen banks to get their interest rates for whatever kind of loan you're trying to get yourself. When y

They also run around and move garbage cans in the street where they can get hit by cars. They also ride on the side of a truck, just holding onto a handrail and a step. If they lose their balance or grip that could be end badly too.

I wish I could think of a good way to produce incentives that would negatively affect Disney; but Disney isn't the one doing this hiring its Infosys. So although Disney is reaping the benefits of Infosys's cheap labor; it is Info

You don't pay at Tesla stations, because you've prepaid for the supercharging option. They may have recently eliminated it as a separate ~$2,000 option with the introduction of the 70D, but that just means it is rolled into the p

It is true that I didn't include tools; trim and finish also add to it depending on what you're doing. When you're doing demo, you may also need to fix or match existing finish work (e.g., you might have interrupted hardwood

Knocking down or throwing up the structure for a partition wall isn't that expensive. If you want to build something like 16 linear feet of wall, you need 4 panels of drywall ($40), about 16 2x4s ($43), some tape ($2), joint compound

Yes, but they are arguing that using the invisible fence wire is too costly/difficult for a lawnmower. I can see that argument. A basic consumer lawnmower is probably $200-600 right now. An installed pet fence is quite a bit more. A
