    I've tried Scottrade's, Google Finance, and Yahoo. I think Yahoo was the one that let me search for price % by last 3 months, last 6 months, volume, and market component. The other two were trickier, with a lot more technicals. I just wanted the basics. One of them wouldn't even screen by volume, and kept giving me low volume chinese penny stocks.

    I recently started looking for stocks using the stock screener that have: over last 6 months: > 40% over last 3 months: > 20% Volume: > 1-2M In attemp to find those rising stocks, hopefully before its too late. Since I'm playing with money for now, I'm trying to ride the wave for about 3 months and make 20-30% each time. So far I'm up 25% on SPWR and 15% on MU. Just bought DAL, we'll see what happens. It's amazing how many stocks in 2013 had over 100% in 1 year I'm curious what the marijuana stocks are going to do. "Other related stocks that are on the rise on Thursday include Medical Marijuana (MJNA), Hemp Inc. (HEMP), Tranzbyte (ERBB), GrowLife (PHOT), Greengro Technologies (GRNH) and Cannabis Science (CBIS)." Anyone have any experience with a CFP? I was always under the assumption they just tried to manage any debt, and would try to make commission by selling you insurance and funds

    I'd actually like a detailed, math focused source that gets in the weeds. Everything I've seen on Amazon is super novice and seems simple -- get out of debt, diversify, etc. My 3 stocks are split between solar, tech, and airline (specifically SPWR, MU, and DAL). Using Scottrade. I've used Vanguard for mutual funds before when I was really young. I know I'll eventually need some IRA stuff, just a matter of when. And whatever exists.

    For those quoting Dave Ramsey, did you just read his book? I'd like to get more savvy with investing. I'm 28 and as I start my USAF aviation career I want to invest smarter. I know there's a lot of options.... mutual funds, traditional/roth IRA, state tuition fund etc. So far I have $18k in stocks that I play with, $80k in 401k, and about $15k in cash. Single, no kids.

    How full are FY14 AMS classes? I am finishing up enlisting paperwork and then I need to do IFC1 still. I really want to get into AMS in FY14 instead of waiting all the way until next October...
  18. rancormac
    I still haven't been officially enlisted in the unit. Hired May 2013, completed MEPS Sep 2013. Apparently the recruiter doesn't know what job or code to enlist me under. I most certainly can't be the first person...

    What a lazy ass. If she could learn to throw better, she wouldn't have to unbuckle and get out of the truck to begin with.

    My girlfriend got suckered into this. Her "financial advisor" scared her by saying if someting happened to her now, she'd be uninsurable, and she couldn't make the salary she makes now, and how can she ever support a future family... etc. Over $800 a month for over $2M in whole coverage. I shat a brick when I heard. Told her to get term and invest the difference. Whole policy soon cancelled. "Financial advisors" like that should be thrown in jail. Or maybe it is the fault of the ignorant...

    My limited opinion of financial advisors is they are over-glorified insurance salesmen disguised as financial gurus, usually with no formal math/financial background.
