Quotes of the Day

In day trading, you always should exit your position 5 to 10 minutes ahead of major scheduled economic releases.

International health insurance: These plans cover you anyplace in the world. Some companies also offer a semi-global option, excluding certain high-priced countries in exchange for a lower premium. Premiums vary, but for a healthy, 60-ish individual, expect to pay roughly $3,000 to $5,000 a year. National, in-country health insurance: These plans provide in-depth coverage in a given country. Ask whether the plan includes a travel-insurance component to cover health emergencies when visiting other countries. Premiums in Latin America generally run 10 to 35 percent less than international plans, while in Asia they can cost $1,000 a year or less. Hospital membership plans: Top hospitals in some countries—notably Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Panama, and Uruguay—offer membership plans that provide steep discounts on services at their facilities, including hospital stays, doctors’ visits, and prescriptions. Monthly fees generally run $25 to $75 per month per person. [2014] - Dan Prescher

Group theory: You do not walk up to a girl who's all by herself. That is not the perfect seduction. Women of beauty are rarely found alone. After approaching the group, the key is to ignore the woman you desire while winning over her friends-especially the men and anyone else likely to cockblock. Neither compliment nor insult, a neg is something in between-an accidental insult or backhanded compliment. The purpose of a neg is to lower a woman's self esteem. [2005] - Neil Strauss
