Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Unless you read it wrong. I trade Forex. Its already random enough. The stock market?? Forget about it. Especially with the commissions involved and the unpredictable fluctuations now.hobokeni said:buy and hold is not the only way
many traders/investors short the market
sometimes the down moves are very fast for quick profit.
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

short term traders historically have the least return on the investment in the long run when compared to any other type of investor ( U cal Berkley study if anyone cares...too lazy to dig up the research) including people who put their money into mutual funds.speakeasy said:I wish I was good at this stuff. In the meantime, I'll just have to work for my money.
you could've bought BAC when it was at 3 back in Feb and today it hit 15. 5 bagger. even if you bought last Monday, it was at 12. 25% gain in a weekWiesman44 said:Some of us don't have 40 years to wait for this to happen :crackup:
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I don't give a fvck if it hits 50 or not, which it will when the economy gets healthy, but I'll be surprised if it doesn't hit 30 by next year. 100% gain is fine with me
easy money if you're not daytrading
Which is why the price is taking a dive. But it depends if you're a long term investor or short term. Also, BAC is pretty overvalued.hobokeni said:This is not time to buy

Price is what you pay ,value is what you get
dont be the one left holding bag,
there are few good chinese companys with growth rate
not in US many company have high multiples p/e and overvalued on fundamentals,
big boys are dumping now
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

yeah, I don't get the insistence on shorting either, unless maybe you're daytrading or know a specific industry that's going down. it's gonna be a bull summer with a few pullbacksmacallik said:To the OP, as for shorting the market. If you know something I don't go for it, but to my knowledge it is a bull summer and coming off the best continuous period in the last year...
Oh yea? I saw a story on CNBC yesterday about how tablets are being introduced for free in a handful popular universities across the country, and how they end up saving students 30-50% on their books. The idea of tablets selling well does make the assumption that Americans have a predisposition to reading that I don't quite agree with but I'll have to keep an eye out on the situation sommore...ready123 said:AAPL is releasing a tablet in September (other OEM's put their tablets on hold because they're scared) and everyone knows how good AAPL is creating market share out of thin air. If that tablet catches on, that stock is rising. If it doesn't, that stock is still rising because the economy is getting better
Not likely. The iPhone is a premium product.macallik said:they want the phone their friend has at a cheap price and AAPL is doin that.
