I spent more than an hour learning my way around Entreprenuer Connect this morning. The site lead me to two other social networking sites. I suppose that’s great for the other sites.
The site seemed very sluggish. I tried to join a group and recieved an error message because it was so slow.
Secondly, the discussion boards aren’t that […]

It’s 4:12 a.m. And I haven’t been able to sleep for the last five hours. While I’ve been up, I’ve been jotting down ideas, listening to my thoughts race around my head as I think of ideas to implement when school lets out in two weeks. One of the ideas that I thought I would […]

Could it have been avoided?
Rage, from a family member
Who gave me kisses
on top of my forehead
And told me that I was an angel
I’m now embraced by angels
Who assure me that I was loved
but can’t help me understand
why I can’t see mommy anymore

The plan is quite clear, save, save, save. I’m confident that I can earn a living trading after this week. I just need to not overleverage my trades. I was able to get back my loss over the course of several days which brought me back to zero again. And the week isn’t over.

Today I felt like writing. School is three weeks away from being over. It’s been a long and hard journey. I’ve decided to take a break to focus on making money. This is the same predicament I found myself in when I went to guitar school in my twenties. I was unprepared financially to just […]

Rather than think about how much I made (or loss) I thought it would be good to write down my + or - points per trade.

I walked naked
into an open field
With my father following behind me
I prayed that this was some type of bad joke
As he held a gun to my head
I then began to think he might be serious
The last time I looked
into the white of his eyes
it was has if
I was looking at a stranger
Fifteen years of love disappeared
And as […]

How many of us have to die
Before we rise up and say “No more”
Every hour somebody is dying
Shot dead
before we have a chance to live
And I was only nine
Take 100 of us
And we could have figured out
how to cure cancer
but those possibilities
are being extinguished
because someone didn’t learn
how to multiply

I can’t offer any answers
So question not my intention
As it was not an easy decision
I hope that the path I walked
will leave an example for others to follow
Even if it wasn’t a straight line
Chicago politics has another story to tell
