Re: why none of the females took advantage or even showed interest. Females Respnse

While I agree this is online, I do know so significant relationships that have developed online. From mariages to huge deals. Yes I know there is scams too but there are scams right in your face and as an earlier poster pointed out that the biggest scam was carried by someone people have met face to face. Seems online we approach things more skeptical and therefore use caution and do a little more research.

BGOL started out as us just sharing naked pics and gif files till we started talking shit and found out others had similar interest and then the board grew into something more than just pix and gifs.

There has been so much that we have gained because others have shed a little about their interst. They have found others doing the same things and the sharing begins.

When ING just started I was sharing with folks this similar kind of promo and folks that it was too good to be true and/or they didn't trust this online stuff.

Back then all they had to do was open the account with $1 and get $50.

So I hope folks stick around this board so we can continue to learn more about each other and therefore be able to grow personally because someone has shared a little more of themselves with us. Sometimes what they may bring to us is something that cause us to return to basics or back to what's important or something that propels us to the next level.

you are so right about that. it was here at bgol where my interests in stocks started. i was doing the auto investment with sharebuilder, before the layoffs started and then me having a cut in my pay.

i'm wondering if to continue by taking a bit of my mthly savings.

when i was doing the auto investment SPY was 145-150, now its 80-95.
i like the safe boring stocks too.

i saw your first post about the 500, but didn't have it to spare, actually
i did in my savings, but i never touch that unless i, really, really needed to.
in hindsight it wouldn't have been a problem to move that money there
and back in 6mths.

another option i'm looking at since i have fam in trinidad is opening a
unit trust account there. 5% for US accounts. http://www.ttutc.com/

I don't know how much you have been putting in on a monthly basis but if the amount affects your being able to survive then you may have to cut back and keep cash till you have new a source of income coming in.

I looked at the Trini US Fund investment and it has risks associated with it pretty much the same way US mutual funds does. Something most of us found out this year. We saw mighty companies fall and their bonds crushed. GE and GM bonds were considered safe but we see that nothing is 100%. These funds are invested in companies, etc. If you are concerned about the safety then call them and ask for the specific bonds that they are invested in.


The fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing in a diversified range of high quality short-term US Dollar denominated fixed income securities. These securities will include a wide range of government, corporate and money market instruments of investment grade quality. http://www.ttutc.com/fund/usif/default.html



*An estimated yield is quoted at the beginning of each month. The estimated quoted yield is largely a
function of income to be earned for any distribution period and will be affected by expenses incurred by
the fund in any distribution period. This quote reflects the return a unit is expected to earn for the period.
However, in the event the portfolio earns more, it will pay more. The quoted yield which is not necessarily
indicative of future results will fluctuate from time to time and there is no guarantee that the quoted yield
will be realised.

I only wanted to point out to you that there is risk involved just like with the US money market funds. As you've seen on their chart that the rate has come down over the years. I am curious to see how they did this 4th quarter. Here is the exact quote from the prospectus.

RISK FACTORS
All investments, including mutual funds, have risk and no
investment is suitable for all investors. The US Dollar Money
Market Fund seeks to minimize risk, however there is no
guarantee against loss resulting from an investment in units
in the US Dollar Money Market Fund. The value of the United
States Dollar may fall in relation to the Trinidad & Tobago Dollar
and there be no assurance that the investment practices of
the Fund will be successful or that its investment objectives
will be attained. http://www.ttutc.com/info/prospectus/usif.pdf

Their track record has been pretty decent over the years. http://www.ttutc.com/info/pop/return.html There is some benefits to them being outside of the US as they can have at times a much more global view of investing than some US investors.

it took me a day to figure out what im holding in one of my full service accounts. this is my full service brokerage account i've had since i was in college. that's the only fund/investment i've held this long and to be honest i dont even bother looking at it.
but to further prove my point these things are too fuckin slow for me (mutual funds, money market, bonds.) without this thread i probably wouldnt have remembered about the fund until summer next year or soemthing.

i wonder if they still have my money LMAO i havent touched it since money been in there. wow. i wonder why they dont send me monthly statements anymore...
:lol: crazy

Dude the forex opened at 17:15 and I came in down almost flat on the position. I looked at the market and it pooped a little and the chart wasn't the same chart I left Friday. I had to go to the 24hr post office (every state has one, it's the main PO where shipping) so instead of putting in a stop I just left. I came back two hours later and I am down $600+ hehehe. It recovered some to $288 then I noticed a margin warning. I chuckle cause I was so happy that shit didn't get called when it was down big. I made a couple trades now and almost flat again -$26
