Happy Holidays from Stocktwits
We laughed, we cried, we survived. If you killed it in 2009, you deserve the accolades. If you survived 2009 and can smile, you are a stud. I loved 2009.

We never bought our homes, but were sold the paper. We loved Tiger Woods the golfer, but were sold his Nike gear, Gatorade and …
Howard's Bank
I would never call my bank Howard’s Bank, but I plan to have a bank for entrepreneurs. The death of venture capitalists has been a topic of discussion ad nauseum on the web the last 12-24 months. Bad VC’s die, great ones evolve and as is the case in any industry, some asshats that suck balls …

Bank of Apple Revisted…
I have long hated bankers/banks on this blog. I hate their hours (the fake long ones and the true banker hours), I hate their attire, I hate the offices and shrines they built for themselves with shareholder money to feign trust. Of course bankers and banks serve a purpose, but it’s a simple job. Our …
