One more thing--well perhaps there will be more.

How big a loser does somebody have to be to have a signature line that reads, "If you want to be stupid you have to be strong."

The fool is claiming that he actually wants to appear stupid as if appearing stupid was an asset in life.

Clearly Put, I misjudged how tough you must be!

Jul 26, 2005 12:52 am

Why don’t you just give up, Put?  You’ve never gotten the upper hand with me, and you never will.

You don't get to my station in the food chain by being anything but bright as the sun.

Bright as the sun?  The wax melted from your wings a long time ago, Skippy.

Put is probably brainflux as well. If you remember his posts this weekend, he stated that his theory was that there are only nine members on this forum, and that most of the posts, and answers to the posts are the same person. I would be willing to bet that Put has at least 15 to 20 different ID's because he is embarassed to admit that all he does is surf the Net all day. These are Put's pet questions. Notice how brainflux refers to him as "the infamous Put" and compliments him on his answers. Nobody would do that except Put himself.

Just for the record, I am proud to say I only have one ID, multiple personalities is not my thing!

Jul 26, 2005 12:59 am

Starka, perhaps you can point us to something you have contributed to this forum that is worthy of anybody's time?

It appears that your entire mission is to pop up whenever somebody says something smart and make it look even smarter by parading  your stupidity as if you were a peacock.

Jul 26, 2005 1:00 am

Showing you up is something fun and easy when I have an idle moment.  You’re an amusement, Put.  Nothing more.

It would be good if you had one brain cell to go with that one ID.

Brainflux--here's another of the geniuses who prowl around these parts. This particular wunderkind is a guy who sells diapers to hospitals and would love to be a stock broker but realizes he couldn't pass the Series 7.

In short a wannabe.

You know what is scary?  Morons like this (apparently) are in the securities industry.

Sophomoric drivel being posted for the sake of seeing something on the forum--not unlike a three year old jumpiing off the toilet and pointing proudly to what he did.

Boy that sure is funny, a real knee slapper.

Fellow forum members, what's the over and under on Starka's mental age?

Jul 26, 2005 1:39 am

[quote=Home Officer][quote=Put Stinks]

I just realized something funny.

Home Officer, if you shorten it, is Home O.

I knew it, I knew it, I knew it. This explains why Put is so evil. He's still in the closet, even though he's about to collect Social Security.

Wow.  You must have busted 'em up in grade school during recess.  Still are, I'll wager!

I'm not quite sure how to receive all these comments. So far, HO has offered the most sound advice. Everyone else has only encouraged me not to follow this advice. It's strange in here. I don't think I am properly armed to combat the wit being displayed. I did enjoy the exchange about the wax & sun, but for the most part this forum is nothing but prattle. Thanks HO for providing me with some insight. If anyone has something of substance to share I'm eager to read it.

Anyways, rest assure that I am not PUT.

That the nimrods think you might be is a badge of honor.  Stupid people are never accused of being Put.

Remember, put on a suit tomorrow and stand up when you're on the phone.

Put:

Why do you pretend that you live in New York City?

[/quote]

I can't speak for Put, but I live in New York because it is where I work.

When I first moved here I tried the NJ suburbs--first Edison, then Ramsey.  I hated it, absolutly hated it.  The reason was because I had to leave so early for the office.

Finally, after commuting for two weeks from the far south and two weeks from the far north I told my wife that we should do whatever we could to liive in Manhattan.

Having a half hour door to door commute suits me and our lifestyle.

Why do you think Put does not live in New York too?  There's a lot of Wall Street types here.  It is Mecca for a stock market professional.

What's even scarier is that there are even greater morons working in management positions of chopshop firms in Manhattan.  But, I guess that's why they're there and why they're posting constantly on forums.

How does Rayond James compare to AGE?

Jul 26, 2005 4:55 pm

On the subject that was recently posted.  The one BIG bad thing I have heard about AGE and Merrill is that their top people are not advisors.  That really can affect your job.  I am at RJ and Tom James is STILL an advisor.  So , he interacts with compliance, the computer system, people, etc. just like we do everyday.  I have been here since April and I am very pleased.

Good luck.

Are you saying that Tom James prospects, smiles and dials, writes order tickets, holds hands with clients and all the other things that go along with being a registered representative?

Do you suppose that Stan O'Neal at Merrill or Bob Bagby at AG Edwards do not interact with compliance and technology?

Finally, how is your day to day life and activities affected by what the CEO of your firm does, or does not do?
