OMG, I got edited by the Parsad.  Well, I got to keep him busy.  He obviously doesn't have enough to do.... 

 

 

 

 

"F--ing Engineers. "

 

Why would firing engineers be censored? Engineers get fired all the time. S-t happens.

 

 

 

I just dont know anything any more.

I'm really excited for the airing of grievances. I've got a lot of complaints about you all this year

 

Ah, the airing of grievances.  The highlight of the celebration.  Here's several. 

 

1.  If you're part of the seemingly every growing contingent of younger posters still living at home, please don't offer life advice. 

 

2.  For newer posters, please don't feel the need to weigh in with your views on every single thread.

 

3.  If you post about how much angst you have with your investments and you don't know if you're investing properly, etc, please don't then 5 minutes later offer advice to someone else who asked an investing question.

 

4.  If you're under, say, 30, please feel free to get rid of the world weary tone like you've seen and done it all.

 

Ah the good old sarcastic holier-than-thou tone, every time I look up for the poster's name it ends up being the same guy. Do you ever contribute anything besides complaining about other people's posts? This board is free to leave if it's such a drag on your life, you know.

 

New around here?  Search Kraven's post history.  He's crushed the market investing like Schloss.  While most around here are doing 20-30% with 10 stocks or leverage Kraven is doing similar numbers with 100+ stocks and 20-30% cash.

 

I don't care for his returns, he literally just whines like a bitch about other people's comments on every post I see him make. He could return 100000% a day he would still be as useless. Maybe it used to be different eons ago, I don't know but the 2kewl4skewl act just derails threads at best. There's a lot to learn on this board from and for members of all skill levels, if he doesn't want to deal with the lower-skilled among us he can stick to VIC, apparently it's all big boys pants there.

 

Lighten up, Francis. Apparently some of the grievances hit a little close to home.

I can vouch for Kraven's kindness and willingness to help out newbies.

 

Today is an unfortunate day for my family. My father in law died from a massive heart attack last night, he was a man who knew both riches (net worth of tens of millions in the 80s and 90s), culture (owned the largest Rolling Stones private collection at one point), heartbreak (divorce, abandoned by his family), and abject poverty. Had it all and lost it all. He was a great friend and will be missed and I was glad to know him and have him think of me as a son, even if just for a short time. This drink is for you Tom!

Sorry hear that. But looks like he lived a full life. May he rest in peace.

He definitely lived a full life, which is why it was a pleasure to know him and celebrate his life...another fun story is him working out of Curacao at one point as an accountant, doing inventory checks on oil tankers for George Soros' funds by dipping a rope in a drum of oil, calculating the volume and applying it to the ship's inventory!
