Don’t Do This!

June 30, 2009

I have  pretty good record when it comes to what future trends might influence a stocks price so when I’m asked what my “best” stock pick is at the moment I hesitate.  And here is why?  

Recently I was asked that question and gave the questioner my answer.  I even cautioned him to make sure he was investing in the spirit the stock pick was chosen.  That has been about 2 weeks. 

Last week I called to say Hi.  I asked if he’d done anything with that stock pick.  The response I got was what I’d expected.

June 30, 2009

A natural brain protein and insulin, of all things, may lead to effective treatments.

As children we have a very limited concept of our lifespan.  As teenagers and for those that never matured past that point we think that life goes on until it just stops. The older and more mature we get the more we start thinking about what will become of our minds in later life.  And some even think that physical health would be related to the mental health.  After all, doesn’t exercise make our minds sharper?   And when we exercise our minds shouldn’t that increase mental health and decrease mental decline? 

Well, if you can’t make a connection between exercise and mental health after you read this article I found then perhaps you need an adrenaline rush to get you out or your mental slump.  Why?  Read about it below.

June 25, 2009

It’s been about a week and a half since Financial Widgets crashed.  Now everyone knows that I’m not a web master of any kind.  Thanks though that I never claimed to be.  FW’s trading record is now over $50,000.  Not bad for starting with $2K only 10 months ago.
