Jill,

I'm mystified why you'd stay away from kings.

1) Because Kings don't have the lock on their business that Gorillas do;

2) Because investments in Kings aren't as safe as investments in Gorillas due to item #1;

3) Because I'm not as good as a lot of people around here at recognizing when the leaders of royalty games become subject to increased risk; and

4) Because given the alternative of investing in Gorillas which don't pose those issues, I don't see a compelling reason to invest in a King, a fundamentally inferior investment over the very long haul that isn't even as strong as a chimp that dominates a niche market.
