Redshift -- In physics, the reddening of light sent out by an object that is moving away from an observer.

Redshift -- In astronomy, the systematic displacement of individual lines in the spectrum of a celestial object toward the red, or longer wavelength, end of the visible spectrum.

Basically, I am a gear head and love speed. The name comes from an object moving away from you at a high rate of speed it appears red, much like the doppler effect. Basically the term is for shooting stars. The ones that appear red are moving away from earth and the ones that appear blue are "blueshifted", coming towards earth.

Yankees = My life/favorite baseball team.
33 = Patrick Ewing's #...he was my favorite basketball player when I made this sn.
8 = Latrell Sprewell's #...he was another favorite player of mine.

I had to be fair to my two favorite teams: the Yankees got their name in my sn and the Knicks got their players' numbers.

Here in fastlane forums...JesseO is same as CarrieW. On Richdad and almost anything else I'm known as Jesster84 because I turn almost anything into a joke, and that's the year I was born. I'm a natural joker, even when it isn't appropriate...go figure.

I find it more fun to let people guess what my screen name means. It isn't that hard to figure out

I'll just sit here and wait...

Everytime I make a trade I make sure I know what my "Edge" is that should make it successful.

The needed "edge" could be technical analysis, fundamental analysis, fear based volatility, statistical based probability, etc. I think too many people just throw money at the market and/or diversify. Who knows, maybe diversification is their edge. If it is, I don't think it is fastlane. To me, having an edge is the opposite of diversification.

This doesn't just apply to trading, I think the successful people here all had an edge. The apt complex folks and storage unit investors found an edge in what they were doing. Their edge was finding value and how to control the value. Their edge wasn't going to loopnet or the MLS, offering 5% below the asking price and hoping that the market goes up before they run out of money.

Reading all these is very interesting.

One day I woke up and asked myself, how did I get here? I found hope in this

...old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 2 Corinthians 5:17

So it's a reminder for me of hope for a better future. I can make better choices.

If you want things to change around you, you have to change first.

Bilgefisher: Harks back to my Navy days on a submarine. I had the watch in the lower level of the engine room. Right below me was the bilge. On occasion the bilge pumps would break and the bilge would fill up. When you stand over 700 hours of watch per run, you find ways to entertain yourself. Sword battles with the evil pipe monster(3 stitches to show as my battle scars), diving for bilge gnomes(elusive little bastards), and of course bilge fishing. A buddy of mine use to throw little foam fish in the bilge to spice things up.

The name kinda has symbolic meaning for me now. It reminds me of where I have been and that I can make things better no matter my surroundings. The name kinda stuck and most people online just refer to me as Bilge.

thecoach - I started coaching baseball when I was 16 and when I was growing up I knew a lot of Chris's since it's a common name. I would joke around with people to just refer to me as coach, that's what the kids always just call me at baseball like I don't have a real first name anyway. When I started promoting concerts it became kind of a stage name becuase people would introduce me as thecoach becuase I promoted shows on music forums and that was my sn, so everyone just started calling me thecoach and I started introducing myself as Coach to people. It's easier to remember a name like Coach rather than Chris. Some people to this day don't even know my real name, it's kind of funny. Some of my clients introduce me in business settings as Coach ("This is Coach, he's my financial guy I was telling you about"). One friend was absoltely baffled when she heard me tell someone my name was Chris....in the 3 years I had known her she thought my parents just gave me a cool name. I get confused sometimes on how I should introduce myself...haha

I had not figured out the first part, but I certainly had the "bfd" wrong.
