The Internet & The World by Cole Branel

homes for sale It’s a common misconception that Big Business, such as are fueling our global economy right now, are great for business. Now, that isn’t to say that there isn’t some good that comes from Big Business, it’s just not good for the global economy. The major positive we get from Big Business is an improved quality of life. However, with that improvement comes some problems. With the economy in a downward spiral, I intend to provide facts to prove why it’s my opinion that Big Business (i.e. large corporations) is a major contributing factor to the economic mess that we’re in today.

First of all, Big Business always means lower prices. Low cost items are not always good. Consider what it takes to get reduce prices. Consumers demand lower prices; to make that happen, outsourcing occurs. Once you outsource, you hurt the local economy, which then cries out for a greater reduction in prices. To accommodate that, salaries are lowered; jobs are cut for some and hours lengthened for others.

juegos I decided to investigate, and this article is the first installment in my investigative report. I believe I have cracked the ‘Magibon Code’ as you will see. I believe there are many facets to it, and the quest to find the answer will take us into many areas of human nature, and also the nature of the internet.

trabajo Let’s say that you purchased an OPTION at $1 per share. On that very same day the market moved in your direction and you were capable of selling that option at $1.50 per share. Since Option contracts are all standardized sizes of 100 shares your net profit before commissions would be $50. You also would have established a profit of 50%. This is a great return considering that most money managers earn 15% a year!

To determine your Return on Investment you only need to divide your net profit by your initial investment. In this instance you had a 50 cent profit per share on an initial investment of $1 per share.

Now the promoters bait the hook……. Even though your profit was $50, your return on investment was 50%. This is indeed factual. Think of how EASY it was to earn that return, after all you did it in only one day! So since there are 365 days in a year, to calculate an annualized return we would multiply 50% times 365. The result is a staggering return of 18,250%. (Now if your stomach is turning by this type of deceit, GOOD!)

I offer you the MATH below:

Buy Price 1

Sell Price 1.5

Profit $0.5000

Gross Profit $50.00

% Return 50%

# of Days 1

# of periods in a year (365 days) 365

Initial $ Investment $100.00

Net Profit $50.00

Annualized Return 18,250%

Now what infuriates me about these promoters is how successful they are at providing the public with this type of “financial snake oil!” One promoter in particular has actually written a best-selling book on options that is filled with these types of misleading and deceitful computations. Hard to believe but an 18,250% return will barely pay for the price of the book!.

Although this is a technical point. many of you have probably realized that the above example is further complicated by the fact that the financial markets are not open 365 days a year. If you take weekends and holidays into account you literally only have 252 days to play with. So the more mathematically oriented con men would offer you the following calculation:

Buy 1

Sell 1.5

Profit $0.5000

Gross Profit $50.00

% Return 50%

# of Days 1

# of periods in a year (252 days) 252

Net Profit $50.00

Annualized Return 12,600%

Hey 12,600% annualized return…sure beats those low yielding MUTUAL FUNDS!

Now, I wish I was making this stuff up, but my mailbox is filled everyday with variations of these examples. No mention is ever made of the fact that your profit BEFORE commissions was $50 bucks which is not bad and might pay for DINNER out on the town.

This may seem extremely elementary and basic to many of you. However, I have seen many extremely successful individuals taken in by this type of deceit. I think you’ll agree that although the numbers are accurate they are completely unrealistic and the INTENTIONS of the promoters are what is in question. Nonetheless, you’d be surprised how many $3,500 seminars the above example will SELL.

The financial markets only require one thing of you if you are to be successful and that is that you manage your risk on each and every trade. THERE IS NO OTHER SECRET. In my own trading I must admit that it took me years to learn how to TAKE a LOSS. Once I learned how to lose and accept it as part of doing business my trading dramatically improved. Although I consider this to be among the most profound truths that I have learned regarding trading I readily recognize that it is nowhere near as marketable as promoting 18,250% returns. Or was that 12,600%? After all 50 bucks IS 50 bucks!

Sometimes it is difficult to differentiate between FACT and OPINION. In those instances I heed the words of the great Yogi Berra, “You can observe a lot by just looking.” Nuff said.
