I am probably an idiot...

...but wasn't there a way to put certain members on ignore; so that you didn't have to read their mundane and pointless posts.

If anyone could let me know how, I would greatly appreciate it.

I think it's under the poster's profile, the friend/foe part...

I can't handle reading things four or five times; in an attempt to figure out what is being said.

Better off if I don't even see it.

thanks tastic. I didn't realize adding someone as a "foe" put them on ignore.

Probably not...I have been working out of my house lately. Economy sucks, and I have a lot of free time on my hands, and there is not very much going on to do. To flipping hot!

I went hiking up in Payson by the waterfalls yesterday and fell off a small cliff, so I will be staying home even more the next few days. Luckily, I must be made of steel cause I feel real good, all things considered.

Glad to see someone's enjoying my works of art :lol: ...don't worry, tomorrow is my last day of work because as you mentioned the economy sucks so I have decided not to stay with a struggling firm and will actually be going back to school in Atlanta so I'll have a lot less time on my hands (since I won't have an 11 hour workday of which to spend 50% on this board). :wink: But seriously its been nice getting back onto the board and seeing so many interesting perspectives on everything...thanks everyone and I will try to stick around, maybe just not with a maniacal (spelling) number of posts per minute.

LOL...if I can read this, you must not be my foe! I have been thinking of doing something else as well, just haven't decided what yet. No school though, not my cup of tea. I may plant a vineyard and start a winery or build an adventure resort in Oregon where you fly in and out to get there. Nothing better than spending money I don't have.

Really. Investing is my thing, and when I actually have enough money so that I don't have to lever it like 200:1 (I know, nobody will lend me 2 dollars on a penny) I am hoping to build a diversified portfolio (after a long enough time, I want to own anything from real estate for lease, to a Subway franchise to a junkyard (lots of money in junkyards surprisingly)). So let me know if you actually end up doing something of that nature, sounds fascinating. See, right now I like to think of myself as a restricted free agent. I have worked with this small fixed income investment firm where I am essentially guaranteed a job after I finish my last year of my finance degree, but I might opt-out depending on whether the firm grows like it has the potential to and on whether any other finance jobs even exist in a year!
