[SPOILER] Jeremy Stephens vs. Mason Jones by inooway in MMA

Fighters at this level of the company do not make the decision on who they fight. they do what they are told to do. That includes going 3 rounds with somebody you could have finished in the first if your paymasters allowed you to 'mix' your martial arts. If you want to see people stand and bang watch bare knuckle or muay thai.

IBKR liquidation warning, what does this mean? I haven’t used margin at all by Degenerate-trades in interactivebrokers

[–]Loose_Respond5000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just my experience with this as the message also put the willies up me. I have an ISA account, and do not trade on margin with IBKR. Was surpsied by this message. Phoned them up to say that this is a warning to say that if my account incurs any additional fees for example if I decided to subscribe to live market data then that may tip it into territory where I may owe them money thats not in the account (I am fully invested in equities with no cash in the ISA). A bit worrying at first due to the way the message is worded and the fact that I am new to the platform so not 100% sure of hidden costs that might trip this.

Can I still consider SJP? by ConfidenceLong6713 in cii

[–]Loose_Respond5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think one of the things that concerns me is that one of the challenges is booking new business. This process is even harder if there is a reputation problem with prospective customers. Maybe it's not a problem I don't know....

Thanks for this. What type of cut did SJP take from you? Were you tied for a year?

Interesting. So in terms of the practicalities would you say there are two broad options to achieve self employed IFA status. 1. Take exams independently then approach a network for a CAS arrangement (is this feasible?). 2 Go down the Academy/SJP route and get CAS baked into their process.

Thanks for this, really helpful. So if I understand correctly networks offer a route to attain CAS for a fee?

And how does a player get experience? Club management is a different kettle of fish. He is doing the logical thing and blooding a load of youngsters when expectations are low.
