I wonder some times if Tobin did not help in writing the script for Yellow Teens.

Eight teenage friends make last-bash party plans for grad night in Los Angeles. That evening, their friend Sin Lee gets robbed while working alone at his dad's shop.
Already feeling pressure to prove the worth of his general space-taking existence, Sin is unable to face his father about the loss.

His buddies rally together and sketch a shaky get-rich-quick plan to recover the money before sunrise. What follows is an adventurous and pathetic-but-funny scavenger hunt.

The kids scrape their savings together and beg skeptical relatives for free cash. With their pool of money, they buy a vintage car from Alex's razor-tongued aunt, only to have it stolen from a scumbag nightclub owner.

They get themselves in deeper trouble and end up broke. Unable to tell his friends and family the real truth about how he lost the money, Sin splits and disappears. By running away from his problems, Sin's desperation peaks, and he's driven to commit a crime that he may regret for the rest of his life.

Hi Tom,
Would you give some guides to people from abroad as to how to go about buying stock?
I have barely started to pick some information and only stumbled with Form W-8, but how else is there to do as for transfers to buy, reliable brokers?
You advice will be greatly appreciated, regards and congratulations!

Hello Joaquin.

If you're interested in trading in the U.S. as a foreign national you'll need to fill out and file the W-8 with the brokerage house that you'll be doing business. The W-8 will release the brokerage from having to hold back any money for taxes when you sell out of a position.

Setting up an account is similar to what anyone has to do in the the U.S. Decide on the brokerage you'll want to use for your trading, fill out the paperwork and send the money required to start your account. The money necessary to open an account varies with the brokerage house.

Once you have an account established you can begin trading. Your options are to call your broker, trade by touch tone phone or computer trading if they offer it.

You can do most of the research necessary to find a broker you want to work with by surfing the Internet. Most of the big houses have a web site. Fidelity.com comes to mind.

If you want to trade strictly by computer and get the lowest fees possible try www.gomezadvisors.com. This site specializes in rating the on line PC trading houses and does an excellent job helping you to find the on line trading vehicle that is right for you. Good Luck.
