A Decalogue for Prodigal Investors
(offered as penance for flirtation with heresies)
1. I am the Q thy Gorilla, who brought thee out of the land of mediocrity, out of the house of penury.
2. Thou shalt have no other Gorillas before me, excepteth those that meeteth the tests laid out in the Holy Manual.
3. Thou shalt not take the names of the Gorillas in vain, nor try to time them, for they will not hold him guiltless that taketh their names in vain or tryeth to time them.
4. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy, at least until the major houses sponsoreth secure and liquid trading on a 24/7 basis.
5. Honor thy uncle, that thy days may be long upon the thread which he hath given thee, and the authors of the Holy Manual, who hath blazed a path to riches for all.
6. Thou shalt not kill thy profits by selling too early, but reinforce winners while cutting off losers, as doeth the Russian Army.
7. Thou shalt not commit adultery with Shiny Pebbles, nor hold Royalty tightly.
8. Thou shalt not try to steal even more obscene returns by using options or margin, unless there are very special circumstances and thou really knowest what thou doest.
9. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy threadmates, nor spread FUD of any kind in the land.
10. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's returns, nor tryeth to chase such returns by entering before the Tornado hath begun, and certainly not before the Chasm hath been crossed.
