:goofy: Reminds me of a joke.Q: What does a Mathematician do when there isn't any toilet paper in the bathroom?

I am a mathematician and I love numbers.

Now Robert.Want some advise from a degreed Applied Mathematician?

But, if you're analyzing lots of deals, 9% of ARV is probably going to be a lot quicker to compute than 10% of total costs (as adding up total buying, holding and selling costs typically takes a bit more time).Sorry to be pedantic, but the engineer/mathematician likes both accuracy and precision...  :-)

I will look into the list and will update you guys.Lastly, I met a mathematician, beginning investor-BPer and together we came up with an idea for a software that can help automate finding properties and estimating what to offer.

As a mathematician, do you not understand the idea of total interest cost?

OK mathematicians.

It doesn't take a mathematician to tell you what's gonna happen when it's $25 a barrel (or $150)...In a recession, you can make money buying any company that's going to come out the other side intact and ready to go (ie, it has relatively low debt, and is healthy enough to weather the storm). 

I think that's because of fear, but more on that in a minute.Chris, when someone buys a lottery ticket for a dollar and wins $10,000,000 their ROI is 999,999,900% according to an ROI calculator I'm looking at (you'll have to forgive me for using a calculator, but I'm not a professional mathematician or whatever, so I'm using a tool to get the right answer).

I want to know the so called mathematicians / great economist who cited and called the last crash with MATH.
