Nothing says “look at me, I’m fucking rich, ovah here, like putting a dollar sign in front of your title.”
Over the past week, I’ve been formulating my 2011 predictions. You must understand, I take this shit very seriously. Thus far, only RC and Chess have submitted their 2011 predictions to the iBC Auxiliary offices in Caracas. Failure to adhere to my edicts will lead to grave accidents upon your person. Consider this blog post fair warning to all iBC bloggers.
On that note, I am almost ready to hire another blogger. Albeit, the pay is lousy and management is very demanding. However, we have lots of room for growth here at iBankCoin. If you don’t piss me the fuck off through disloyal behavior, I might just throw you a bone or two. If you want to be noticed, post your stuff in The Peanut Gallery. I hire most of my bloggers from the PG. It’s like the minor leagues of iBC.
At the open, stocks will trade up. There are a few deals to speak of, namely DNEX and some oil and gas company from the UK. Bottom line: investment banks are foaming at the mouth to utilize corporate cash for mergers and acquisitions. Their sales pitches are very good and CEO’s understand why NOW is a perfect time to spend cash on acquiring real assets and businesses. I expect deal flow to heighten in 2011, thanks to record amounts of cash in company coffers.
With my money, I like VLNC, AKS, REXX, CCJ and EXK

Can we not tempt Alpha out of retirement for an additional blogger?
I hear someone here might be thinking about moving to NC?
I live in NC
I might move to NC, yes.
aaaah… cap hatteras.. the easy life. kitting/surfing… jacuzzi at sunset with nachos and beer. .. i remember the good life.. i wish someday to go back..
I like it, I live in Greensboro, inbetween Raleigh and Charlotte, 1-1/2 hours drive to either, 4 hour drive to the beach, 2 hour drive to the mountains. Fairly nice place, rolling hills, medium size town, very reasonable real estate prices.
“All the Winstons you could ever smoke,” don’t forgit. (sic)
Or in Fly’s case, Salems.

Check out Boone and Mars Hill areas before deciding. Not insanely hot in summer, and hurricanes/tidal waves won’t bother you.
There’s a porche-club somewhere close in there too. Really fun roads to drive all over the place in there!
Blessed wishes to all for prosperity & holiday merriment. I venture to wonder if his excellency is sitting tight with $GMO. I must recall -it’s xmas with all that implies.. ty
I say you hire Chuck Bennett…He’s the only PG blogger worth reading, the rest suck. Sorry but it’s treu [sic] Endless babble has no value…this site needs more profitable traders like Chuck, not guy’s who day trade their 401k’s and who think writing 3,000 words per post makes them look smart….
hey v king,why dont you apply for the gig? you make boat loads of coin,tell us your ways.
I wonder if the Fly would ban a tabbed blogger?
I’ve talked with the Fly about such a position. The Fly doesn’t feel that my $3,000.00 subscription fee would be a workable model here.
So sorry…. there’s a grammar test.
______
Ah yes, grammar is way more important here than making bank…For the record i’ve added to my C position…
It’s much more honourable (sic) if you can do both.
Again, so sorry.
__________
There is no honour [sic] amongst thieves….AD&D
And for the record Mr. Gint I do not care for your approval, nor do I want it.
Fortunate, that.

lol
You gots tah keep the teefs in, though.

Decent news for my RDN holdings. Watch the other mortgage insurers too.
RDN – Primary New Insurance Written $1.2 bln for November, flat m/m; Beginning Primary Delinquent Inventory 128K compared to 130K in October; New Delinquencies 8.8K compared to 9.3K in October; Ending Primary Delinquent Inventory 126.6K compared to 128.2K in October.
J0sh1ingU here’s your second chance bud.
“Thus far, only RC and Chess have submitted their 2011 predictions to the iBC Auxiliary offices in Caracas.”
Are they posted somewhere?
Le Fly, NC is pretty dope. I have been here for over 13 years. Came down from the DC area after spending some time in the service. I’m on the SOBX (Southern Outer Banks). This place is pretty sweet!
Stink – pls tell me you know Willie III. Wancheese.
lol, doesn’t ring a bell
Hatteras or Ocracoke?
At minus a freaking million up here in Canuckistan; I certainly miss both.
A suggestion for a new blogger.
How about a non-stock blogger.
One who comments on stuff that happens in everyday life (but not a metrosexual type like you had a few years ago who liked to write about what kind of clothes to wear).
As you probably noticed their is an increase in comments posted (and I suspect hits) when Jake writes about current events or when you (The Fly) write about moving (and the comments on that keep on coming).
Just a thought.
You have plenty of stock bloogers.
oh, and I will contribute some prose to the PG.. definitely want to start blogging more
I like V.King for the total assholishness.
How much can you curl?
As much as I want.
weak..like your arms…and your brokerage accounts.
endorsement rescinded.

Their predictions were submitted, not posted. I will put all predictions on pdf doc, like last year.
Look at me!
Fly- you should do gift certificates for the PPT. Would make a nice xmas present.
Gift certificates are for products that no one wants.
Then why is my local crack dealer distributing two-vial “Corner Coupons” with pictures of Christmas turkey on them?

Well, I was actually looking to give a couple out to my brother in laws. Nevermind!

Mr. Caddy….
V.King hint #35…do forearms and calves 4-5 days a week…
thks again….
The V.King 1:01 To be big you have to be big….
I love biscuts and gravy, with sausage and eggs. Cooked in the hill country in one of the small german towns in central texas. Food there is to relish after and to fiend over when in those locals. Winerys there are nice as is the folks who live there, join us one day, we welcome all who enjoy good things.
Austin area?
_______
Yes, just west of Austin ’bout 60 miles or so.

9. Lots of exercise with fitness guru Richard Simmons and celebrity sightings like Jackie Mason.
10. No problem getting a seat at Golden Corral after 5PM (see Quint’s no. 5 above.).
TC, let’s not forget the blue hairs driving 34 mph in the passing lane, coming to a complete stop before turning a corner, accelerating to a mind boggling 48 mph on the interstate and telling you endlessly how much better things were up North where they had better tomatoes. Of course they neglect to mention they also had the NY Jets – another good reason to move to Florida. God bless ’em, without’em Walmart and Dollar General would be half vacant.
So true for the Midwest… but some of us don’t even have a mayor!
Very Funny!
#6 on the NYC is classic…
Well done.

Currency getting crushed and bonds are down once again.
$4 gas here we come!! Stocks love the news of course. Insane. Santa buyers must be drinking too much egg nog.
Time to get TSLA!
LOL @ tranny with huge smile and gay scarf pitching the PPT…..too funny.
I was thinking the same thing… no ad copy, but perhaps their most brilliant ad ever.
I also like the Dickens/Christmas one (they may BOTH be Dickensian, now that I think of it)

I really look forward to a new blogger. Since Chess and RC have mostly migrated behind a pay wall the site has been very quiet. We only have that guy from Hawaii that post every couple of weeks and Jake who has been busy lately.
Thank you for your endorsement…
The V.King has just bought 100,000 shares of AEZS…If you BUY this stock based on my BUY your dick will grow three inches and you will lose all your money….
V.King 1 small step for him, one giant step towards tabbed blogger
I found an old email I got from a Lousisianan that describes what it is like socially there. It’s a great place. U might like it, Fly. OTOH, it could be a difficult place to understand, for someone who is under the illusion that money is the most important thing in life.

I hereby formally request a measurement.
Jake, a little further south, new braunfels, fredricksburg, comfort, north of san antonio.
THE FLY I am itching to become a part of your team. I have some blog history in the peanut gallery, but you can find more on my blog. Now I know your like who the hell is this kid and his POS blog, but I can bring some of my skill sets over.
Well, I can assure le Magistrate that you play one hell of a benighted civil servant.
