<<Pay 21.99% interest to invest?>>

It's not quite that bad, about 10% actually (gotta get in on the specials) and then margin on that borrowed money is only 7.25%. Nothing compared to making 600% on internut investments <vbg>. But seriously, you do have a good point in should only play with "house" money. But I have to start somewhere. My job pays the bills, not much left, in fact I work on the side to make ends meet. Family to support. The truck I drive cost me $700. (I'm not kidding) I could just live my life like this, never try to get ahead, and retire just as much financially in bondage as I am now. wrong! Do you have any better suggestions for participating in this incredible market? BTW, you may be suprised how many people are doing this with credit cards, I believe that credit cards may be partially responsible for creating this incredible liquidity that we have seen. This is one reason that I share the view of some on this thread that we are in for a fall at some time in the not to distant future.
