No arguments from me. I lost 75% of my capital shorting AMZN (via puts) on valuation 2 years or so ago.

But, as someone once described it to me (or maybe I dreamt it, I can't remember) This mania is like having a huge stream of cash zipping by your window. All you have to do is reach out and grab some. It's great for awhile, until your arm gets ripped off.
