Awkwardly turns 10? Poor title choice! Every household in USA has one ipad or wants to have one. (360million total sold in usa - so 1.1 ipad per person). 360,000,000 ipads x $400 (example average price) = $144B in sales !!! There is nothing

in '08 it certainly was. this is not "important" if its your house - since you live in it, values could go down to zero - who cares? you still need a place to live in. It becomes very important if we are talking investment.

USA real estate is number one market for money laundering. Very easy to setup an LLC and buy up properties through offshore entities without raising any red flags. Cartels, mafia, dirty politicians etc. invested heavily in Real estate in US

Its just an observation, fiction or not. i remember this fact from the bible and its funny how in this article they talk about 400-500years human lifespan.

in the long run >95% of active retail traders loose money - bull market or not.

going against another strong hand and loosing is one thing - slow rolling strong hand and being outplayed by weaker hand is another (and totally deserved IHMO).

i strongly disagree with the author. you cant ignore sunk costs. For example, in the stock market the majority of active retail traders (>90%) get wiped out within 3 years. they continue to dump money into the market, ignoring losses (su

mistake is not in holding strong hand way too long. mistake is in not playing it.

Quality care SHOULD cost a lot of money because hard educational labor (child care) should be well compensated! Great quality teachers (early childhood) SHOULD be able to earn $75-100K + Which means that really daycare should be at least so

US is not whole world. It will be interesting to see when smaller nations (outside of G8) become truly energy independent. THAT will turn everything upside down once more.

This is interesting times we live in. True Energy independence could turn world politics upside down. The only solution for big oil to survive is to take over big battery business. Interesting what they will come up with!

On one hand i am glad that a transnational company is getting stopped like that, especially when breaking the rules. they are basically a giant money hoover that comes in and sucks the money offshore with offshore interests as #1 priority.

2 start ups behind, shares worth 0. both companies took on half a billion (!!!) in funding combined - from VCs, gov etc. Revenue = close to nothing. I feel that start ups mostly are cash burn machines built to pay cushy salaries to C-level
