"your $$$$$" starts right now. >> how much money did you make not from working, but from investing. i'm christine romans. if you haven't already, take a look a where you stand after a banner year for the market. you'll probably like what you see. the dow up 27%, the nasdaq up 38%, the s&p jumped 30%. it's rare to see big performance like that. the question now, can the rally keep going? most analysts see more gains ahead.

cnn money surveyed 29 analysts asking what they expect the s&p 500 to do in 2014. 10% predicted gain of 10% or more. half expect a 5% to 10% gain. 28% say they expect a 0% to 5% and 7% think they'll see a drop this year. it's time for the classic bulls and bears. bulls think it's headed up higher like horns facing upward but bears think the market is due for a plunge like a paw swatting downwards. michael o'rourke is the chief strategist. he's bearish. you think you could have another 15 or 20% on stocks, why? >> there's a lot of people on

the sidelines. there's still $2 trillion sitting on the market. they want to be involved in this market, right? so where do you go? do you go in stocks potentially with big games? >> no. do you sit in a money market making money? no. there's so many individual investors that missed out on this big rally. >> they certainly have reacted well to a so-called taper which was supposed to be the end of the big bull run. michael, let me bring you in. you think for the year stocks are actually going to finish low lower. i want to argue with you a little bit. you got 200 thousand-plus jobs created in the last year. home prices rising. why is it bad for stocks? >> well, to put it in perspective since 2009 the recovery growth has been p 2%. between 2011, 2012, 2013 it was the best past performance since 1930.

every even sopisode except for last -- >> what's the catalyst for a 10% decline? we haven't seen it yet. what makes the stock market fall? does something happen or does it fizzle out? >> i think we push up. i think monetary policy has created it in monetary prices, not that they're historically expensive but they're well beyond the prices they would be beyond the fed's help. >> the gdp, they talk about 2, 2.5%. when you have growth about 2, 2.5%, that's the best. if we come in at 2.5%, it's not robust. >> i want to circle back to this disconnect between wall street and main street. we know that about half of americans are not invested in the stock market. in fact, they're listening to us and they're saying wait a minute. i made exactly what i made based on my work, not my investments. what's your vice to people who may not hold any stocks right

now, may be looking at a 30% gain and say, okay, i've got to to be in on this gain, i've got to be part of the economy where people are making money. >> you have to be realistic. it's just not going to happen. if you believe in investing for the long term, you have to start putting money in stocks. the problem is people look at main street and they see the headlines and they see the negative news out there. if you looked, you'd think the market was down, not up. invest. >> it's hard to feel good about stocks if you don't feel good about jobs. obviously you have different perspectives. for our viewers are listening and think the stocks will go lower next year, what do you stay away from, michael? >> i would be heavily -- i would have my most offensive position. i think you wait for collections. i believe you should buy equi equities for the long term, et cetera, but we're at record highs in the u.s. stock market

and we've had this bubble bust -- monetary policy and bubble bust stock market in the last 15 years. >> for both of you, the viewer who's watching us today is probably somebody trading in a 401(k). that's what they have. maybe there's a taxable account somewhere. your advice to someone is to still continue. >> obviously you have options outside of the united states. i think europe is a great opportunity as well. valuations are extremely low. but yu want to be in equities and stay clear of bonds. as they go up, bond funds go down. >> if you believe matt mccall's world view, that's what you believe. if you believed in him, what would you do? >> i'd be heavily in cash. that would be another drag on the economy. we talk about where mortgage rates are going to be. a year ago we talked 3.5%. now we're approaching 5%.

next year, north of 5%. that's going to see a slowdown in the economy. >> all right. so nice to see both of you. two different world views completely. how about we keep checking in. in a record-setting year only one stock can be number one on the s&p 500. it's a company you know well. give me 60 seconds on the clock. it's money time. >> it's a 50% raise this year for the ceo hastings. netflix was the tot stop last year up near 300%. big donations. there were 15 gimds of $100 million or more. that's four more than in 2012. facebook's ceo mark zuckerberg made the biggest donation. facebook shares almost a value of $1 billion to the silicon

colorado and many of them had lines out the door this week. the state government feeling good about the sales as well. every retail pot purchase is scrub jekt to a 25% tax plus the regular 2.9% sales tax. it will amount to 67 million buck as year. a little less than half is designated to build schools. it ends the fight for it but it's the beginning for those against the use and sale of drug. miguel hmarquez has more. >> if i'm looking a little green it's because of the green marijuana plants. it's legal to purchase anywhere within the state's borders, but that's not to say it's welcome everywhere. if you think of colorado, you think of skiing, charming

miguel, especially the ski resorts. they have a two-pronged issue, people openly smoking on the resort grounds and their employees as well. we know that the law is very clear. employers have a lot of rights, to fire their workers for smoking pot even not on the premises. giets to be the next legal frontier, i think, for the workers who have the right to smoke but they might not be able to keep their job. >> reporter: look. there's going to be a lot of adjustment as this law gets goemt. amendment 64 was very clear it gives power to the smallest possible entities. even for hotel, that hotel can decide whether it will allow pot to be smoked on premises there. same thing for employees. look, employers don't want their employees showing up drunk either. they may go further in marijuana in certain industry bus in this industry it's going to be okay and a lot of employers will be

okay with it but that will be something pleas will have to speak out. >> i think it's interesting when you mentioned drinking. they've been working -- companies have been working so hard to push smoking and drinking away from the employment base, right? now here's a third thing. tobacco smoking and now drinking. we'll continue with that. thanks miguel. what great live shot. up next, want to given to the homeless? there's an for that. we'll explain next.

100 million people in 22 states battered by a monster winter storm this week. more than 2,000 flights canceled, 8,000 delayed, and that meant long lines in airports across the northeast and midwest, but what if you never had to deal with the stress of lines aet the airport or anywhere else ever again, what would that be worth to you? we hit the streets to see in a little segment we like to call "what would you pay?" >> i don't think i'd pay anything. i mean sometimes you have to stand in line. >> if i was an adult and i had all the money in the world, probably half a million. >> i find excitement in waiting in line. >> i don't. i feel like $1,000 easily or more to never wait in line again. >> we come from venezuela and you have to line up for everything. $1,000 maybe. >> i'd pay however much it

takes. i'm very, very impatient. i feel like we pay for time anyway. >> 10,000 euro? $10,000? for the rest of my life. >> $260. >> what about you? >> i'd go for 20 bucks. i don't mind. frankly you can do everything online at the internet as opposed to inline standing there. >> hate long lines? you're going to have deal with them if you're planning to travel to sochi. you can ride the subway for free in moscow if you're willing to do something you have not done since gym class. it's a move to prepare for the upcoming olympics. phil has our story. >> some of its stations and

platforms are spectacular. this is a recent attempt to build national pride with the metro. these people are buying tickets with the winter olympics coming to the russian sochi next february, the government wants people to get excited and get moving. instead of accepting 30 rubles for a ride, about $1. this machine allows people to pay with squats. we saw lots of enthusiasm, some big age differents, and some interesting techniques. sometimes there was even lineup, but the numbers were still pretty small. there's only one squat machine for the whole metro system that moves as many as 9 million people day. the regular ticket booths were long. i asked this woman, why are you la lazy? apparently it's a rude question. she denied it and accepted the

challenge. i held her handbag and she squeezed out a confident 30. apparently you can't call other people lazy without having a go yourself. it's a bitterly cold moscow day. what could possibly go wrong? another popular one i have noticed, here we go, the super man. it's not counting. there's the squatting chicken. i've seen that a bit. it's pop. the dancing cossack, pretty easy, or so i thought. 59, 60. the man said, one more time. annoyingly he was right. >> i did 29. >> no. it said 50. >> that's what it said. >> everyone else seemed to be much happier with the experience. they told us they'd like to see more of the machines and think
