No Hashtag Needed: Twitter’s Issues Worsen

I saw that chart and originally wrote it off as Twitter's improved brand recognition. But after reading Mr. Trainer's article I'm not so sure. Perhaps Twitter is simply a fad to be replaced by something better. Akin to how Facebook completely supplanted MySpace.

When Chasing The Tape—Please Mind The Lemmings

I reported abuse on your comment. One thing I love about this site is the comments tend to be much more respectful and civil than on other sites where they tend to devolve into insults and anarchy. I would hate to see that happen here!

And I noticed that you are a contributor too! Shocked that you would attack a fellow contributor like that. Mature individuals know how agree to disagree and/or have a respectful discourse on their differences without resorting to derision!

Investing Lessons From House Of Cards’ President Underwood
9 years ago

Nice article. I also thought Underwood's plan was either crazy or pure genius. I actually think the plan could work in real life but I did see some problems. It's great to give a job to everyone who wants one. But:

1. Some people are simply unemployable - the unreliable, incompetent, etc. What would be the result? We just keep giving them jobs after they get fired over and over again? There is a cost to that as well.

2. Some people would likely get stuck with jobs that they aren't interested in or are below their level of expertise. For instance, Underwood's buddy went from being a successful entrepreneur who owned his own business, to being a dish washer in someone else's. That's far from ideal.

Regardless, being that Underwood is unlikely to swoop in and save the day, take Sizemore's advice and invest in your own future.

Gold Vs Gold Stocks: Bullish Anomaly Developing?

"Some of the top mining stocks to look into: GG, ABX, YAM, NEM. A better business model and usually better returns can be had from streamers or royalty stocks such as SLW, FNV, RGLD. They make an upfront payment for a % of future production or revenue. Diversified exposure is possible via an ETF like GDX or GDXJ."

Thanks for this!
