ParticipantI don’t have a dog in the gay-marriage fight either way. But NJ already legalized unions with basically the same rights and privileges in 2006, and Christie has no plans to alter that law. If I had my say, I’d make ALL marriages (gay, straight, canine, bovine) into “civil unions” at the state level and make “marriage” the sole province of whatever cult the parties choose to adhere to. This would solve the problem of “equality” without annoying the zealots as much.

ParticipantGreat, so they torched some poor schmuck’s cabin for no good reason. Comedy. Of. Errors. Will they accidentally blow up Disneyland next?

ParticipantYou hear about people who made $20MM selling .com stock in 2000, then were broke inside of 5 years, and you think Whiskey Tango Foxtrot. Say $10MM went to taxes. Why not put $2MM into property yielding 5% cash return, so worst case, you end up with a healthy $100k/yr from investments?
Spend the rest on hookers, llelo, and new startups.

ParticipantNano-robots are still a blunt axe. Ideal would be to use the immune system itself to kill cancer. We have cancer cells in us all the time. Lack of immune recognition of the same allows them to grow out of control.
If you’re interested, read about spontaneous remissions due to another (often viral) illness that makes the immune system hyper-vigilant.

ParticipantProblem is, to have enough time/money to invest, you have to be lucky in the first place.

ParticipantProblem is that his bluntness wouldn’t fly in much of the US. As they say “in NYC (NJ is much the same), they say ‘f-u’ when they mean ‘howdy, have a nice day.'” “In L.A., they say ‘have a nice day’ when they really mean ‘f-u.'”
His actions after the hurricane spoke to the fact that he really cared for his constituents, despite the pigheaded bluntness he displays.

ParticipantSpeaking theoretically, what’s the lowest/slowest a Cessna can fly? Deposit the package off a touristy beach in the early morning hours and have him swim to shore and walk out of the ocean like any number of other foreign tourists.

ParticipantNope – just rolled some debt into a card cash advance to maximize cash on hand, then paid the same off before the pumpkin turned into a coach-and-four.
But yes, I assume your idea is possible.

ParticipantOK, even two cards with a $10k limit plus $5k cash of your own would suffice for $100k of investments. Get a margin account, dump $25k cash into it (prerequisite for a pattern day-trader account). You then can get up to 4x margin.

ParticipantLot of scantily-clad people in Phoenix. As a heavily car-oriented city with a lot of fatties, they’re generally not the kind of people who SHOULD be scantily-clad.

Participant5% down – hope you have 4x that much in cash for a rainy day. Otherwise, party like it’s 2006, BABY! Wonder what will happen if you need some major capital repairs or run into some medical expenses.
If you’re spending all your cash, you should be looking for 2 bdr condos in the $200k range.

ParticipantI’ve got these offers since I got the card in 2009. Nothing new.

ParticipantI’ve done it and set up autopay from an account with more than the “loan” balance to make sure that I wouldn’t miss a payment. Credit is useful, when you have money that you want to hold for some other purpose. (Say the $25k minimum in a pattern day trader account, plus ability to acquire properties for ca$h.)
