NW: For me, anyone who writes  that economic reports move the markets
brings into question the credibility of the writer.

NW: Yep, I read it and I can "limbo" under those expenses.  My biggest
expense is Signal delayed quote service for $80 per month. I average
about 3 r.t. futures trades per month for an amount less than a total
of $45 (I have such a good deal, I am sworn not to tell). I seldom if
ever read the WSJ or other publications unless I can get a free
subscripion and then only to look at the charts. I also get free charts
off the internet. So, even allowing for some other miscellaneous office
expenses (I do have a separate line to receive my statements by fax =
about $12 per month) my monthly expenses are at most $150 per month. 
I guess I got Gary beat by about 2 to 1. By the way, Jack Benny is my
hero. Our birthdays are only 3 days apart (different years) and we both 
attempted playing the violin with questionable success. And, if you want
to get at my money, you're gonna have to get past those hungry
aligators. <G>

Frugally,

Norman
