I wrote a comment (that might get censored) at another blog which is sort of pro-science and very much god-soaked.

http://scienceandcreation.blogspot.com/2014/12/bill-nye-thinks-creationism-is-raising.html


"we know that heaven awaits"

How do you know something is true when the idea is ridiculous and childish and has not one shred of evidence? How do you know something is true even though it requires the wishful thinking of cowards? How do you know the heaven fantasy is true even though it requires a massive amount of magic wand waving? FFS grow up and face facts.

"evolutionary creationist"

Those two words don't belong in the same sentence. Creationism is the idea that magic made creatures. Evolution is the scientific explanation. You're mixing magic with natural processes. You are polluting the word "evolution" with bull crap.

"if you accept Jesus as your savior"

Your Magic Jeebus Man is dead and totally decomposed. That worthless dead preacher man isn't going to save you from anything.

I live in the 21st century. You live in the Dark Ages.

What I wrote at another website in a thread about America's science deniers, aka fucking idiots.


  • "They're happy to believe (which is ok by me btw) what they want to believe."
    It doesn't matter to me if uneducated idiots want to stay uneducated. The problem is these idiots brainwash children. They all do it. And there's thousands of idiots who have made brainwashing children their career.
    Teaching children to hate and fear science, which is what all these anti-science idiots do, is the worst possible kind of child abuse because the brain-damage they cause is usually incurable. For example does anyone here think the brain damaged idiots of chess.com are ever going to be able to grow up? Of course not. Their brain damage is incurable. Their pathetic lives are wasted.
    Creationism is a disease and it must be completely eradicated just like any other disease. We won't get there with these idiots making children stupid.
    Even worse these child abusers want to make everyone else's children stupid. Just like the Islamic State idiots, American idiots are constantly trying to dumb down or suppress the teaching of evolution. Their war against science education will never end until the idiots understand their abuse of children will not be tolerated.

    The professional child abusers make their victims (American children) think the 4.5 Billion year old Earth is only 6,000 years old, which is equivalent to New York City being 28 feet from Los Angeles (somebody did the math).
    This burning stupid is out of control in Idiot America.

    I have a blog about the religious war against science, scientists, and science education. This is one of the many things I wrote there:
    According to Florida's public school state science standards adopted in 2008 "Evolution is the fundamental concept underlying all of biology and is supported by multiple forms of scientific evidence." Evolution does not need defending because it's a basic scientific fact. The religious alternative, magical intelligent design creationism, is the most ridiculously stupid idea in the history of the human race. Creationism is more than an idiotic fantasy, it's a disease, a severe mental illness. Why do Christians deny the established truth of evolution, despite massive, powerful, and still growing evidence that's been accumulating for more than 150 years? There can be only one possible explanation. Christians (and their Muslim terrorist friends) are uneducated morons.

Netherlands politician wants to eradicate Muslim scum from his country.


Without Islam, the Netherlands would be a wonderful country. I have heard very few speakers yet on this subject, although everyone is of course concerned with their own issues during the budget.
Without Islam, the Netherlands would not lose something like 7.2 billion [Euros] a year on mass immigration. Without Islam there would not be any mosques in the Netherlands and people would not be confronted every day by Islamic headscarves and djellabas, 'hate beards' and minarets. A country without all the symbols of Islamic domination - wonderful!
What a country the Netherlands would be without Islam. We wouldn't have to deal with the policy of population replacement, nor with the policy of Islamic colonisation, nor with the settlement policy in more and more districts in large and small cities.
Without Islam, the Netherlands would be protected, protected from the social disruption that is taking place as a result of mass immigration, that of hate preachers who come here through family reunification, victim behaviour, Moroccan crime, Turkish interference, and which take place by making Islamic demands for adjustment by the Netherlands and by the Dutch. All those barbaric, backward, totalitarian ideas from a seventh-century leader of a band of robbers, a mass murderer and paedophile.
Madam President, without Islam, Pim Fortuyn would not have been murdered by Volkert van de Graaf, who claimed that he acted out of piety with Muslims.
Without Islam, Theo van Gogh would not have been slaughtered by Mohammed Bouyeri, and my own party leader, Geert Wilders, would not need bodyguards.
Without Islam, politics would not be full of Islam-huggers, each one of them with their own cynical interest or naive outlook.
Without Islam, Madam President, in the Netherlands we wouldn't have honour killings, and the phenomenon of nephew-niece marriages would virtually no longer exist. Jewish children would simply be able to go to school without protection, and gays and lesbians would be safe on our streets.
Without Islam we would have to spend something like half as much on welfare, we would need fewer prisons and police and much less money would go to deprived areas. Integration subsidies would be unnecessary. We would have less animal mistreatment, and apartheid would be a word in the history books.
Without Islam, highly qualified Dutch people would feel less inclined to emigrate.
Without Islam, sharia would not be insidiously introduced in more and more districts, and in their judgements, judges would not again … make allowance for it.
Without Islam, Minister Asscher would not have had his election poster translated into Turkish. In the Dutch Parliament no-one would ever have shouted, "May Allah punish you severely", and no wash room or prayer room would have been demanded by Islamic members of parliament.
Without Islam, no criminal organisations such as ... Milli Görüs and Suleiman, which forms the long Islamic arm of Ankara in the Netherlands ... Madam President, the long arm of Ankara should be amputated. Ban these organizations, just like the organizations associated with Fethullah Gülen. Expel their leaders - as we call on the minister to do so, and close their offices. Is the minister prepared to do this?
Children at school would not be confronted with halal meat during Christmas dinner, Christmas trees would not be a subject for discussion, and the end of Ramadan would not result in empty classrooms.
Without Islam, no hundreds of thousands of Turkish people in the Netherlands who say that they do not think that violence against followers of other faiths and non-believers is wrong, and no hundreds of thousands of Turkish people who think that Islamic jihad fighters are heroes.
Without Islam, no problems with jihad fighters. Without Islam, no substantial level of threat concerning terrorism and no children rejoicing in the streets after the mass murders in the World Trade Center on 9/11.
Yes, Madam President, imagine what a wonderful country it would be if you could leave all that behind you. Ask the minister whether he shares this vision and, if not, what vision the minister has concerning the ongoing Islamisation of the Netherlands.
Of course, I do not suggest that everything that is going wrong is the fault of Islam; but a very great deal of it is. I have just made that quite clear. Imagine a country without all those problems that I mentioned!
Even though there was immigration in the past from Suriname and Jewish people came from Portugal, there is a huge difference with the mass immigration of Muslims into the Netherlands. The other immigrants assimilated and saw the Netherlands as their new home; the Muslims who generally come here do not change, do not integrate, do not assimilate. No, they convert the Netherlands at our expense into their own homeland with all the mosques, and the original population are just guests.
Islamic immigration, the hijra, has been doing things this way for 1400 years and that will not change. Take a look at the situation in what once was Christian North Africa, and take a look too at Marseilles, at Brussels, or at the Islamic rape hotspot, Rotherham in England.
We are in an alarming phase, Madam President: over the past 40 years no-one has ever see such a change in the demographics. In cities such as The Hague, Amsterdam and Rotterdam, more than half of the Dutch population has now been replaced by people from other countries, mostly Muslim countries.
The birth rate of Muslims is much higher than that of the Dutch, but in France, Belgium and Sweden it is even higher still, and with the open borders, then you know enough. In France, the birth rate among immigrants is 1.3 and for Muslims 3.5, which means that within two generations, within two generations the large majority of the population will be Muslim.
In 2013, the name Mohammed and all its variants such as Mohammad, Muhammed, Mahmoet was the second most popular name in the Netherlands, and this applies not only to the occupied areas in major cities, Madam President, it applies for the whole of the Netherlands, the whole of the Netherlands. The forecast for 2014 is really a startling one: in the first three quarters of this year, Mohammed with all its variants was the most common name for newborn boys in this country, and there is no reason to believe that this trend will reverse soon. The minister cannot avoid responding; what does he think the Netherlands will look like in 2025 or in 2030? Because if they continue with government policy in this way then it will become one huge Islamic mess, Madam President; the fertile polder will become a desert of clay. Muslims, said Bernard Lewis, are not the children of the desert but the fathers. Does the minister share this observation from this eminent historian, and can the minister indicate how he intends to stop the Islamisation?
One of the problems, Madam President, that Islam has brought to the Netherlands is the increased anti-Semitism. I will give you some national and international examples: four Jews were killed last Tuesday by Muslims in a synagogue in Jerusalem, while the inhabitants of Gaza celebrate with axes, knives and guns in their hands on account of this slaughter. The leaders of Hamas called the criminals heroes, and literally right in the middle of the Islamic festivities for this anti-Semitic act of terror, the Labour Party [PvdA] proposes to reward these leaders who have an incurable hatred of Jews with a state of their own! The Labour Party should be ashamed.
It is going too far to call the Labour Party an anti-Semitic party, but it certainly looks like they want to accommodate more and more the anti-Semitic views of the Muslim voters.
Madam President, Islam is bringing anti-Semitism back to Europe - since we were on that subject. In Toulouse and Brussels, Jews have been shot and killed by Muslims just because they were Jewish. In Amsterdam, because of threats by young Muslims you are no longer safe on the streets. Facts - wearing a kippah. I mean, that's a fact. And during an anti-Israel demonstration in the Schilderswijk in The Hague a Muslim demonstrator said to a reporter, and I quote: "If all Muslims were to form a single front, we would have beaten the West and the Jews years ago."
Madam President, to illustrate, last year David Suurland graduated with honours on the comparison between Nazism, Communism and Islam. Anti-Semitism is inherent in Islam, he also says. It would indeed be naive to think that fourteen hundred years of Islamic writings inspiring hatred of Jews would remain without consequences. I quote: "How often have Bolkestein, Fortuyn, Jansen, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Van Gogh and Wilders been accused of inciting racism and been prosecuted? When it comes to anti-Semitism among Muslims they were quite right, and we haven't even mentioned the endemic hatred of gays or the intolerance for dissenters and apostates", writes Suurland in an article in the NRC newspaper.
Does the minister subscribe to this interpretation from this researcher and, if not, what arguments does Minister Kamp have for this deviant position? What does the minister think about the fact that the Islamic preacher Yusuf al-Qaradawi who, in 2008, called on the Muslims here in the Netherlands to punish the Jews as a follow-up to the last great punishment of the Jews by Adolf Hitler? And is the minister aware of the fact that the man who brought al-Qaradawi to the Netherlands called this Al-Qaradawi a respected authority, that this man al-Qaradawi is a reliable and learned man and an example for the Islamic community who says inspiring things about Muslims in society? What does the minister think of that, Madam President? Is the minister also aware of the fact that the man who brought al-Qaradawi here draws his inspiration from the books of the inspirer of the Muslim Brotherhood and al Qaeda, namely Sayyid Qutb, who has been called the godfather of the terrorism club Takfir w'al-Hijra by the Dutch Intelligence Agency, and he claims that the Qur'an is the principal guide for them? Does the minister know that? And is the minister aware of the fact that this man, according to two old party colleagues, has said that … you should not act too openly, you must act secretly, do it quietly.
Yes, Madam President, I am talking about party colleague Thyssen from the Labour Party, the right hand of this minister Mr Marcouch; and I will tell you, whoever votes for Asscher at the next elections will get Mr Marcouch for free, they are sitting together on the tandem. Marcouch is running hard in the direction of the complete Islamisation of society; Asscher doesn't run because the cables have been cut.
And criticism, Madam President - of the hatred of Jews sanctioned by Islam, the hate towards gays, women and dissenters, the hostility to Western standards and values, democracy and the rule of law, the rejection of those and the glorification of violence - is labelled by the followers of Islam and those who agree with this ideology 'Islamophobia', dismissed as if you have a phobia, dismissed away because you dislike Islam.
This is nothing more than an instrument from the politically correct box of tricks, Madam President, to silence criticism of Islam, to pollute the debate, and to accelerate the destruction of Western society.
"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy." It was not De Graaf who said this, Madam President, I quote Mr Winston Churchill.
But soon, since I was talking about Islamophobia before the introduction from Mr Kerstmis, all that will be prohibited if it is left to the Labour Party. Criticism of Islam is in fact justified, and generally not wrong ... Hence Churchill is in good company with others: Maimonides, also known as Ramban, Erasmus, Voltaire and [Alexis] de Tocqueville, all men who promoted Western civilisation through research, through debate.
Those who all too easily make use of the term Islamophobia serve the opposite purpose: namely the decline of our society and the promotion of ignorance, as censorship on the path towards Islamic dictatorship. Does the minister share this view or not? We would also like a reasoned statement of the opinion of the minister concerning this.
Madam President, being polite is a choice, being threatened is not, and there as far as the PVV is concerned is a very clear distinction: verbal criticism is allowed, but violence and threats of violence are totally unacceptable. The law provides sufficient resources to tackle the latter. Comparing criticism of Islam to robbery, for example, once more lifts the tip of the veil on what apparently is the opinion within the Labour Party of our fundamental rights. The holy war that the Labour Party - Madam President, I have named him already, Mr Marcouch - is conducting against alleged 'Islamophobia' is the struggle against freedom of speech. It leads to the criminalisation of any discussion about Islam and thus in the long term to the criminalisation of any discussion of every religion.
What will Islam still allow you to say? That you can live quite well without religion? Or that Christianity is fine; is that not an insult to Islam?
Criminalisation of so-called Islamophobia therefore leads directly to the end of religious freedom and even more to the end of freedom of speech. Once again I ask the minister if he agrees with me and if not, we would like a reasoned, clearly reasoned standpoint from the Minister.
As I said earlier, Madam President, in the Netherlands a demographic disaster awaits us, an undesirable cultural revolution that is unparalleled, via the replacement of the population. In the coming decades the immigrant population will continue to grow, in contrast to the indigenous population.
... and despite pouring money into integration projects, urban renewal, advances for language lessons, allotments in the Schilderswijk and free WiFi, there is little prospect of improvement. The Moroccan problem that we have in the Netherlands will not decrease, but rather increase, and we can only hope that with this policy the increase is not exponential.
The schools are seeing an avalanche of children who are named after Muhammad. We are going to see the majority of all children at school being Islamic, and that is certainly, that is truly not a pleasant prospect. Madam President, the Dutch identity, the identity and culture is being destroyed by immigration and through the uterus. Various Islamic leaders literally said that, such as Gaddafi, but apart from the PVV no-one is taking it seriously. The annual integration report is quite clear about it: there never was any integration, there is no integration, and there never will be any integration either.
Or does the minister think that things won't happen so quickly? If so, what does he think the near future will look like? Madam President, more than halfway. He who pays the piper calls the tune does not apply, unfortunately, for multiculinarism is a fine thing as such, but it does not bring integration any closer, just as multiculturalism doesn't.
Now that the multicultural society is generally seen to have failed it is time for the next step, the replacement of a policy focused on integration with a policy focused on assimilation. Amongst other things, the integration policy has led to an Islamic parallel society and has increased the contrast in Dutch society. Open borders, the multicultural ideology, the integration policy, the all too easily given benefits to immigrants, these are harmful matters that are deeply anchored in the cultural relativistic and cultural Marxist epidemic that has afflicted the West for many decades.
Even worse, Madam President, cultural Marxism is one of the biggest causes of the soft policy on migration and migrants, and thus immigration itself. It has caused a blind spot in the eyes of socialists, but also Christian and liberal politicians who defend Islam from the standpoint of a supposed benefit.
Liberals see the arrival of a workforce, but the PVV sees that the coffee houses are full during work hours.
Socialists see Islam as a means of staying in power, but in 1979 we saw how Ayatollah Khomeini made such deft use of them to come to power, and after that had the socialists hanged first.
Christians see Muslims as brothers in faith and fall into the trap of that small step that leads from Christianity to Islam; but the PVV sees the step from Islam to Christianity is 'rewarded' (in quotation marks) with death, there is a death sentence for that. But we also see that many Christian politicians failed to fight against what they call in their profession of faith false prophets and false province, and in that they are expertly helped by the leaders of the Protestant Church in the Netherlands. I am telling you that they are making a great mistake, and it's actually a travesty that a secular party such as the PVV has to save their skins from the Islamic hell fire.
Liberals in the Netherlands, Madam President, should put an end to their relaxed attitude of, "they can believe what they want as long as they don't bother me", because that can no longer be tolerated. With that attitude they place liberalism in serious danger themselves. The socialists in the Netherlands, well sorry, I don't know what to say about them, we will have to come up with a solution for that. And I have already talked about the culture-relativistic group of people.
Madame President, in conclusion, the message should be clear: the Netherlands must be de-Islamised, all mosques must be closed - especially the Wester Mosque in Amsterdam, by the city council of the minister, who was still a member of the city council when at the will of members the Wester mosque was built with millions in hidden subsidies.
The mega-mosque in Gouda, now postponed for six months, probably because of the elections so that the parties in power do not suffer any damage, must never be built, just like that thing in Groningen, in Selwerd, a disgusting place. The only vacant property that makes the Netherlands better is empty mosques. When is the minister going to organise that?
I'm almost done, Madam President. The integral approach to jihadism is a farce. Jihadists must be expelled from the country and never allowed back, even if they only have one passport. The borders must be closed to people from Islamic countries, the government must commit itself to voluntary emigration to Muslim countries. Criminals with a double passport must be expelled, and only if these measures are implemented will the Netherlands see a positive change.
The problems are obvious and so are the causes of these problems, and we therefore call on the minister to tackle the problems and do what needs to be done, because looking the other way, placation and appeasement are no longer an option.
En garde, I say to the minister. Thank you.

TIMING: DAY ONLY, GOOD UNTIL CANCELLED, FILL OR KILL, IMMEDIATE OR CANCEL

DAY ONLY


DEFINITION OF 'DAY ORDER'

An order to buy or sell a security that automatically expires if not executed on the day the order was placed. A day order is an order that is good for that day only. If it is not filled it will be canceled, and it will not be filled if the limit or stop order price was not met during the trading session. It is one of several different order duration types that determine how long the order will be in the market before it is canceled. For example, a "good till canceled (GTC)" order will remain active until it is manually canceled, while an "immediate or cancel (IOC)" order fills all or part of an order immediately and cancels the remaining part of the order.

INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'DAY ORDER'

Many trading platforms have "day orders" (often appearing simply as "day") as the default order duration. Unless the trader specifies a different time frame for the expiration of the order, any order to buy or sell a security would be a day order by default. These orders are only good during the current trading day, and are automatically canceled at the end of the day if they have not yet been filled. Most trading platforms support a wide variety of duration types, including those that are based on an action (such as Fill-Or-Kill) and durations that are based on a specified time period: one, three or five minutes.


GOOD UNTIL CANCELLED


DEFINITION OF 'GOOD 'TIL CANCELED - GTC'

An order to buy or sell a security at a set price that is active until the investor decides to cancel it or the trade is executed. If an order does not have a good-'til-canceled instruction then the order will expire at the end of the trading day the order was placed.

INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'GOOD 'TIL CANCELED - GTC'

In most cases, GTC orders are canceled by brokerage firms after 30-90 days. This type of order is traditionally placed at price points away from the price of the stock at the time the order is placed. For example if a stock you hold is currently $40 but you believe it will go to $50 at which point you will sell then, you can use a GTC order. Once the GTC order to sell is placed, if the price of the stock reaches $50 at any point over the next few months your shares will be sold.

DEFINITION OF 'FILL OR KILL - FOK'

A type of time-in-force designation used in securities trading that instructs a brokerage to execute a transaction immediately and completely or not at all. This type of order is most likely to be used by active traders and is usually for a large quantity of stock. The order must be filled in its entirety or canceled (killed). The purpose of a fill or kill order is to ensure that a position is entered at a desired price.

INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'FILL OR KILL - FOK'

Without a fill or kill designation, it might take a prolonged period of time to complete a large order. In reality, however, the fill-or-kill type of trade does not occur very often. Other methods of instructing a brokerage on the time frame in which a trade is to be executed include "immediate or cancel," which means to fill all or part of the order immediately, then cancel any part that cannot be filled, and "good ‘til canceled," which keeps an order open until it is able to be filled at a specified price.

DEFINITION OF 'IMMEDIATE OR CANCEL ORDER - IOC'

An order to buy or sell a security that if not immediately filled, will be canceled. An IOC order is one of several "duration orders" that investors and traders can use to specify how long the order will remain active in the market and under what conditions the order will be canceled.

An IOC order requires all or part of the order to be executed immediately, otherwise the order (or any unfilled parts of the order) will be canceled. Partial fills are accepted with this type of order duration, unlike a fill-or-kill order, which must be filled immediately in its entirety or be canceled.

INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'IMMEDIATE OR CANCEL ORDER - IOC'

An IOC duration may be specified when a large order is submitted to the market. Filling a large order may be difficult; to avoid having the order filled at a wide variety of prices, an IOC will automatically cancel any part or the order that does not fill right away. When a trader or investor submits an order to buy or sell a security or other instrument, he or she can specify both the type of order - such as market or limit - and the duration of the order. Order entry interfaces that are part the various available trading platforms allow traders and investors to choose from a number of durations in addition to the immediate-or-cancel orders. Other durations include day (automatically canceled at the end of the regular trading session); good-till-canceled (remains active until the trade is executed or canceled); and good-till-date (remains active until a user-specified date, unless it has been executed or canceled).



ORDER TYPES: MARKET ORDER, LIMIT ORDER, STOP ORDER, STOP LIMIT ORDER


Order Types

Market Order
A Market Order is a customer request to buy or sell at the best price available (the prevailing market price) when the order reaches the marketplace. A Market Order guarantees execution, but not price. For comparison, see Limit Order.

If you do not want your order entered at the Market price, you must enter one of the following price conditions: LimitStop or Stop Limit.

Buy orders will execute at the "Ask" price and Sell orders will execute at the "Bid" price. A security price can rise or fall between the time you place the order and the time the order is executed. As a result, the current quote and your execution price may differ, particularly when trading securities with volatile price movements, in a fast market or if the stock is thinly traded.

Market Orders entered outside of market hours to be executed at the market's opening may have significantly different opening prices from the security's closing price.

Limit Order
A Limit Order is a request to Buy or Sell a security only at a price that you specify (the limit) or at a better price. Execution of Limit Orders is not guaranteed, but if executed, the price you set or a better price is guaranteed. For comparison, see Market Order.

Place a Limit order when you're willing to wait for the price to move to your price, and risk that the order might not be executed if that doesn’t occur.

Another use of a limit order is to control risk in a volatile market. For example, to make sure that you don't buy or sell at a dramatically different price than you expect when considering a Market order, a Limit order can instead be placed above the current Ask price for a Buy or below the Bid price for a Sell order. There is no guarantee of execution on a Limit order.

Sell orders will execute at or above your Limit price, and Buy orders will execute at or below your Limit price.

When placing a Limit order, you must enter a price with the correct decimal minimum price variation.

Over The Counter Stocks (NASDAQ, OTCBB) - Acceptable prices are in multiples of .0001
Listed Stocks (NYSE, AMEX) - Acceptable prices are in multiples of .01

You may also place time conditions on a Limit order. See Time limits/conditions.

Stop Order
A Stop Order is an order to Buy or Sell at the Market price once the security is at or has traded through a certain price (the Stop price).

Buy Stops are entered above the current Market price. If the security trades at or above your Stop price, your Stop Order becomes a Market Order and your broker will buy at the current Market price. A Buy Stop is designed to help protect a profit or limit a loss on a short sale.

Sell Stops are entered below the current Market price. If the security trades at or below your Stop price, your Stop Order becomes a Market Order and it will sell at the current market price. A Sell Stop is designed to help protect a profit or limit a loss on a long position.

The risk of a Stop Order is that it may be triggered by temporary market movements or executed at a price higher or lower than the Stop price. A Stop Order does not guarantee a price. 

NOTE: Schwab will not trigger your stop or stop limit orders based upon odd-lot transactions, or any other transactions excluded from the consolidated last sale price calculations.

Stop Limit Order
A Stop Limit Order is an order which becomes a Limit Order once the security trades at the designated stop price. A Stop Limit Order instructs a broker to buy or sell at a specific price or better, but only after a given Stop price has been reached or passed. It is a combination of a Stop Order and a Limit Order.

To enter a Sell Stop Limit Order, you must enter a Stop price below the current security price and a Limit price less than or equal to the Stop price. If the security trades at or below the Stop price, the Limit Order to sell the security you entered will be activated.

To enter a Buy Stop Limit Order, you must enter a Stop price above the current security price and a Limit price above or equal to the Stop price. If the security trades at or above the Stop price, the Limit Order to buy the security you entered will be activated.

A Stop Limit Order does not guarantee an execution.

NOTE: Schwab will not trigger your stop or stop limit orders based upon odd-lot transactions, or any other transactions excluded from the consolidated last sale price calculations.

Understanding Kinder Morgan's Oil Exposure

Understanding Kinder Morgan's Oil Exposure

I like the comment from drmerleI'm panic buying....

December 2014 I have decided to buy only KMI, buy it at any price, buy it every chance I get, spend every dollar I can spare to buy it, buy it often, buy it as soon as possible, buy only KMI and nothing else, and do all this for the rest of my life.

12/9/2014 SOME GOOD NEWS ABOUT KMI

NEW YORK , Dec. 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Analyst Report Issued by Small Cap IR -- Kinder Morgan Incorporation (NYSE-MKT: KMI) is the largest energy infrastructure company in North America with an enterprise value of more than $125 billion. It owns an interest in or operates approximately 80,000 miles of pipelines and 180 terminals. The pipelines transport natural gas, refined petroleum products, crude oil, carbon dioxide (CO2) and more. The company also stores or handles a variety of products and materials at its terminals such as gasoline, jet fuel, ethanol, coal, petroleum coke and steel.

The company's customers include major oil companies, energy producers and shippers, local distribution companies and businesses across many industries. In most of its businesses though, Kinder Morgan(KMI) operates like a giant toll road and receives a fee for its services, generally avoiding commodity price risk.

The two major commodities serviced by Kinder Morgan(KMI) are oil and natural gas, respectively accounting for 34% and 54% of 2014 earnings. However, the company has been more resolute in the face of the oil sell-off. As the firm's contracts are major drivers of the stock price performance regardless of natural gas and oil price performance, its cash flows remain stable, avoiding commodity price revenue risk. Given current energy price movements, Kinder Morgan(KMI) stands out as a stable name in a world of volatility, and can provide some peace of mind in an energy-exposed portfolio.

*Bold indicates my top fifteen highest quality holdings for life. 

At Yahoo the question was: I'm a college student with very low income. I want to fool around and learn about the stock market. I want to invest and trade in stocks ( Cheap ones). I have a bank of america debit card so does the bank have some trading platform I can use? Where do i start? I looked on betterment.com and they charge like $2500 it says. I havent made this in my life yet. WHere do i start :(

Best broker is Charles Schwab which also offers a checking account. 

There are two ways to invest in the stock market, the wrong way and the right way. 

The wrong way: Buy shares hoping they go up in value so you can sell them for a profit, aka capital gains. This might work some of time but in the long run you're more likely to get wiped out. This is called gambling. Gambling is stupid. 

The right way: Buy shares not caring if they go up or down because you're going to keep those shares for the rest of your life. Instead of capital gains you get income from dividends. Choose corporations that have a very long history of raising the dividend every year. If they don't have this history or if the annual dividend yield is too high (over 6%) then they are probably too dangerous. 

A good stock to buy is AT&T, stock symbol = T. Their annual dividend yield is over 5% and they have a very long history of raising the dividend every year. Keep the shares for the rest of your life, and keep reinvesting the dividends in AT&T or another corporation that pays a high dividend with a long history of raising the dividend every year. The dividends are usually paid every 3 months. 

With Charles Schwab you use a computer for everything, no humans required, but those humans exist in case you have questions. 

Before buying shares you will have to use the internet to transfer cash from your Bank of America checking account to your Charles Schwab brokerage account.

Bank of America, by the way, is not a stock broker. You can't use them to buy shares. 

My only checking account is with Charles Schwab. It takes one second to transfer cash from my Schwab checking account to my Schwab brokerage account. Schwab's fee for buying shares is $8.95 which is a good deal. The Schwab checking account is totally free, they don't charge for anything. They don't nickel and dime you like the banks do. And it's all online. No humans required. 

"If i buy a share of apple and it rises. I trade it for market value and make profit, the company will take out x amount of money?" 

NO, that's not how it works at all. You buy shares of Apple for $1000. The value of your shares goes up $100. You sell Apple. Your brokerage account now has $1,100 cash. 

If you keep those shares of Apple your brokerage account will have whatever the dividend is times the number of shares you own, when those dividends are paid (once every 3 months). 

Apple is a great corporation but the annual dividend yield is only 1.62% which is way too low. You want over 5%. The annual dividend yield, by the way, goes down when the stock goes up, and the dividend yield goes up when the stock goes down. The dividend doesn't change. The dividend yield changes when the price of the stock changes. 

Those wonderful dividend payments that go into your brokerage account, you can keep that cash in your brokerage account and use it to buy more shares when you're ready to do that, or if you need extra income to pay your bills or because you just got fired from your job, you can transfer those dividend payments from your brokerage account to your checking account. 

One more thing: The other answers were written by idiots. Ignore them. Most people don't know what they're talking about. 

Another one more thing: The stock market is dangerous. Think before you do anything. This is not a game. You can get wiped out, and that's exactly what happens to most new investors (even experienced investors can get wiped out). 

A 3rd one more thing: The best time to get started with buying your safe dividend paying stocks is when you're young, aka right now. But wait until you are sure you can buy these shares and be able to keep those shares for the rest of your life. The point is "DON'T TOUCH THE PRINCIPAL." In other words if you have one million dollars don't spend any of it. Instead live off what that one million dollars pays in dividends when you invest it in AT&T and other safe dividend paying corporations.
