>>>I thought as I got older I was getting smarter. This time I was too smart fr my own good.

Hopefully....you learned not to do the Margin Trick.

For me...I've been extremely protective of my gains...that 40% on everything on April 13th in one day...got me really paranoid.

But you know what really broke me loose on these wild internet gains?

That guy I spoke about with the spider Brain tumor, he'll be dead before the end of the year, if not a month....he did something for me. We went over to their house...he prompty sent the ladies out for some more beer so we could talk alone...take the kids with you please...he said.

They all left....it was him and me...he talked about what his plans had been...and were. Said follow me....I did...went into his bedroom, he twisted open his safe, pulled out an envolope. Said, "follow me"...I did, right back into the living room. He then started talking to me about this stock and that stock, this thing he did..and what he would do. THEN he stood up, pushed the envelope in my face and said...this is what that is...I'm a dead man and I've worked all these years for a fricken envelope full of brokerage statements and it don't mean nothing, unless you have something to show for it...THAT IS REAL, AND TANGIBLE FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY...right after that I started the home addition and the pool project.

Figured the Man had a much better insite on life and what it meant then me.
