When trading, the Bulls like options.

Get it? options trading. Check it out mayne. You won't really have to rely on dividend paying stocks that will make dividend like income in your portfolio, anymore. You can purchase shares of high dividend paying companies. It's an awesome way to increase your profits. As an investor, you could make an extra %%, 10% or more over a one year period. But there are several large companies that don't pay dividends, ever.

Why not pay out some dividends to compensate the faithful? Well, in reality, certain companies never do. Instead of doing that, they use the profits to fund acquisitions. They do aggressive, crazy research programs. They even have it as rainy day reserves. Lame.

It's amazing. So many people literally leavea lot of money on the table. There are hundreds of shares of stock, maybe thousands, sit in investor's portfolios. They could be putting stacks of cash in their pockets instead. And it's easier than ever to do this now. Here's how: Most stock are traded publicly with options that they offer. If you make these transaction with your broker, like buying or selling stocks. A call option gives another investor the right to buy shares from you at a price you set anytime. Before a certain date of course. This means, you collect a premium. You do this by selling the call. You get the premium, in cash, on the day you sell the option. It's just like a dividend! Sweet!

If you set the strike price so high the stock doesn't reach that price, you keep your stock. But also, some widely held, heavily-traded stocks like Microsoft (MSFT), Google (GOOG), and Ebay (EBAY) are perfect for this strategy. The option premiums may fluctuate but the examples below illustrate returns you might expect over the period shown for every thousand shares of your awesome stock!

You can sell options each month, up to 12 times a year, after they expire. And guess what folks, it's not unusual to see return rates of 12% over 60 days. This works out to an astounding 72% annual return. That's just on stocks you already have in your own p-o-r-t-f-o-l-i-o!

Of course, the brokerage commissions, and the taxes will affect your actual returns yo.

If you don't know what Mesothelioma is...well...then you should. It's a rare form of cancer. Almoms all of it's victims have almost all been exposed to asbestos fibers. The term Mesothelioma is used to describe a cancerous tumor which involves the mesothelial cells of an organ. Usually the lungs or abdominal organs are the ones involved.Symptoms of malignant mesotheliomas are due to tumour growth resulting in invasion of all of the surrounding structures. There is also a possible production of fluid (pleural effusion, ascites, or pericardial effusion). If you have chest pain, that may be caused by invasion of the chest wall. Pleural effusion causes a collapse of adjacent lung and also shortness of breath.Absbestos exposure is bad. it's the main risk factor for mesothelioma. There are a number of places that you may have been exposed. A lot of men who served in the Navy were exposed to significant amounts of asbestos on their ships.

simmons jannace & stagg Get ready for them!

Remember when Simmons, Jannace & Stagg represented Nancy Burpee? She was a world class paralympic swimmer. Well, in her attempt to participate in the 2004 Paralympic Games held in Athens, Greece, they represented her. It was on a pro bono basis.

The United States Paralympic team was selected at the United States Olympic trials like it always is. The infamous, Ms. Burpee set world records in not only the 50, but the 100 yard freestyle at the trials. They were held in Minneapolis, Minnesota.The problem is, at the trials, she was disqualified by an Australian referee on a procedural technicality! After the disqualification, she telephoned Kevin P. Simmons, who is a partner at Simmons, Jannace & Stagg. She didn't want to take this treatment and asked the firm to represent her and to have the disqualification overturned.

Also, Ms. Burpee requested that the firm commence an action against the United States Olympic Committee requiring the committee to name her to the Olympic Team. The firm began arbitration and live testimony was taken from swim referees in Canada and Australia.

S, J & S argued that the Australian referee showed bias against Ms. Burpee. By making various comments that meant the Australian judge did not want Ms. Burpee competing against an Australian. They also demonstrated that the U.S. Paralympic swim trials were not and I repeat, NOT, held in accordance with the paralympic rules.

Despite all of this, Ms. Burpee did not win. But she continues to compete and will be in the World Championships this year.

I love shiny stuff!

I like gold. No, serially, I do.

Do you remember when gas used to be only 25-cents a gallon. No, it really used to be! You could take only a dollar to the gas station and buy four...count em...four gallons for a buck! Are you kidding me!? Back then, the dollar was actually backed by REAL ...no...REAL money which was real silver!

Are you still with me!? Yeah? Well, the same amount of silver still buys four gallons of gas! Isn't that amazing!? That just shows that real money like gold and silver hold its value and it is the green paper money that is now worth a lot less. Actually, when you think about it, materials such as gas, food and whatever hasn't gotten more expensive. It just seems that way because the value of green paper money is worth less. Duh. It takes more to by the same goods and services.A log of people think prices have gone up, but in reality, the US dollar is kind of screwing us and has gone down too. Portfolio diversification and that 10% to 20% of an investor's assets should be devoted to tangible assets such as gold, silver and platinum bullion and bullion coins. That is what investment experts are saying ya'll. If you ask me, Monex has the experience, expertise and also... the resources to serve most any precious metals investor's needs. They have been doing this since 1967.

A lot of you weren't even born yet and people thought the term "blog" was some kind of monster under your bed. They have way over one hundred thousand investors who have purchased billions of dollars of gold, silver, platinum and palladium bullion and buillion coins. They are one of the country's oldest, largest and most experienced. If I were you...and I'm not...but if I was - I would contact them ASAP! Gold- it's awesome!
