Nick, the worst ad is the one I have seen only in print, in Barron's and other financial mags, in which there is a picture of a tough-looking (but attractive and stylish) young woman, kind of a grown-up "RiotGrrl", and the caption "I'm not going to beat the market, I'm going to wrestle its scrawny little body to the ground." To which the market might reply, "Oh yeah?"

Seriously, those trading commercials are driving me absotootly nutz and are hypnotizing the whole country. When you have that nutcase teaching his boss to trade online while dancing like a freaking moron ... lol- I agree those on-line trading commericals, although hilarious, are a farce, dangerous and ought to be outlawed....along with another pet peeve of mine....home shopping network channels and for good measure lets add state lotteries...all examples of the strong preying on the weak
