I consider a CPA an academic position. Maybe you don’t have the respect I do for the work that went into obtaining it. But, then again, you don’t have one do you?

CPA is an academic position?? Really? I don’t think that a CPA would agree with you(would need SK in CV to chime in here). The exam for a CPA is often considered to be harder than the BAR exam. From memory, the CPA exam is actually 4 exams. Total time if taken all at once is about 2 days. (BAR exam is 6 hours).I don’t know what you are trying to achieve with the statement above though.
I’m getting the weird feeling that ‘investor’ is currently taking classes. There is a 1.5 hours on/off to his board pubs. Tuesday classes @UCSD are 1.5 hours long. I also notice some weird timestamps on his postings. Looks like using different computers, possibly different types (Unix vs MSFT) with possible different time-bases. That said, UCSD computers tend to be well managed and sync’d up to a time-server. Maybe high school?
Maybe it is just the noise in the back of the room making it hard for me to concentrate ;-P

Allen brought up the fact that he knew some seal members in another thread. People that pick on trivial items (like typos) in order to smear someone can be little jerks that like to tag along on the heels of bigger people. If Allen was a ranger, he does not need to tag along on the heels of anyone. I spent 5 years in the air force and I have a lot of respect for other military members. I just don’t see why Allen has to resort to typos and smearing someone for them in order to make his intellectual points. As for the degrees out my ass, read the last post on page too (oooh, oooh he did it again. Allen, SV CV. davelj lookie, lookie!!!), to see where Allen and SV cv brought it up from the federal reserve thread, not me. I guess I set myself up by responding to their academic credentials and then mis-spelling colleges.[/quote]Investor: That whooshing sound is the point going clear over your head.
It wasn’t the typos I was pointing out, it was your inability to formulate a proper argument, combined with a very poor set of writing skills, including hackneyed grammar and syntax. Words mean things, and the ability to make one’s point cogently speaks volumes about education, upbringing and interpersonal skills.
Its analogous to someone standing on a street corner, wearing an “End is Near” sandwich board, and fulminating at everyone within earshot that we’re all doomed. Perhaps we are, but the speaker has no credibility with his potential listeners because of who he is and how his message is framed.
Same goes for you. You stridently demand that others answer your questions, but you don’t bother to answer theirs (unless, of course, they agree with you). You don’t engage in honest debate, and instead retreat behind name calling, or throw out your supposed academic prowess as a means to silence others. Like I said, if you want to debate this honestly, step up. Otherwise, its just more bloviating and watching this painful cut-and-paste tirade. Speaking of which, the instructions for posting, including quoting others, is contained below your comment when you reply. Just FYI.[/quote]
Allen: This is a blog. Not a dissertation. That whooshing sound I heard was your hot air blowing by my head as I tried to figure out where your screwed up argument is headed. You use writing quickly as an excuse to slime the other guy. Not worthy of someone from an exceptional military background as you are. You sound like a guy with a napoleon complex but that can’t be the case if you are an ex-ranger. Your argument style just sounds like it. I am not going to spend too much time proofing these entries. I have much more important things to do. My entire, and read this carefully since it has never dawned on you, purpose in starting the “do you know what the federal reserve is?” thread was to get other people’s input into the book/ subject matter. I know that my background is not in finance, but I haven’t met one CPA, MBA or Banker who knows a damn thing about the Federal Reserve, so I don’t give too much importance on your accounting background. Other posters seemed to place importance on being a CPA or having banking backgrounds, which is why I stated that I have two doctorates which also don’t mean too much when it comes to discussing the Federal Reserve. (Of course, that let open the 2 pages of saying that I am lying, instead of realizing why I was saying it in the first place. But that is the nature of blogs.)
You, and others, have made the mistake of thinking that I am the author. I am not. I do think that griffin makes good arguments and worthy of discussion, but he is rather conspiratorial. I don’t have a problem with all of you ass**** disagreeing with griffin, just give me other facts outside of the federal reserve’s own pages for proof that griffin is wrong. I don’t need to re-write griffin’s book in order to have people give their feedback on the book. Can’t you get that? This is about the book, not me. That makes me dishonest? Some of the folks responding have made good posts but they stopped once you, davelj, and SV CV started in with the vitriol. The main feedback from you has been that griffin is wrong. Not what I consider informative.
Since the creature book covers many topics, would you consent to watching the DVD “money matters” and letting me know specifically what you disagree on? I’ll even buy you a copy if I can ship it to a PO Box. I think that that is fair. But, I don’t think that you are interested in being fair and open-minded.
If you re-read the first blog, you will see that I did not start the name calling. Far from it, I asked for people to be civil. That didn’t last long. You do resort to insults in order to get a rise out of your opponent, then to fall politely back and seem to be the reasonable one. (Don’t make me go back and copy them. Read your own posts). You have done this with others as well.
I am a conservative, not a soros lover. Davelj jumps to invalid assumptions when he says that. But that doesn’t bother davelj. Make up anything, just blast away. What say you Allen? Want to watch “money matters”? Or is looking at someone else’s take on money too much for you?October 12, 2010 at 5:42 PM #616924investorParticipant[quote=Allan from Fallbrook][quote=investor]

I consider a CPA an academic position. Maybe you don’t have the respect I do for the work that went into obtaining it. But, then again, you don’t have one do you?

CPA is an academic position?? Really? I don’t think that a CPA would agree with you(would need SK in CV to chime in here). The exam for a CPA is often considered to be harder than the BAR exam. From memory, the CPA exam is actually 4 exams. Total time if taken all at once is about 2 days. (BAR exam is 6 hours).I don’t know what you are trying to achieve with the statement above though.
Not even worth my time responding to this garbage, aside from this.
I’m getting the weird feeling that ‘investor’ is currently taking classes. There is a 1.5 hours on/off to his board pubs. Tuesday classes @UCSD are 1.5 hours long. I also notice some weird timestamps on his postings. Looks like using different computers, possibly different types (Unix vs MSFT) with possible different time-bases. That said, UCSD computers tend to be well managed and sync’d up to a time-server. Maybe high school?Maybe it is just the noise in the back of the room making it hard for me to concentrate ;-P[/quote]

I consider a CPA an academic position. Maybe you don’t have the respect I do for the work that went into obtaining it. But, then again, you don’t have one do you?
