I like your new thread and have book marked it. As to "futures", I would warn everyone that they should AVOID playing around with "futures". You will get burned. The First Lady still has no clue as to futures (and never will). She got her 100 k or so as a goodwill payoff imo. One can consider the use of "options" and even then, one must be very, very, very careful. Covered calls is what I have started doing and so far, so good. One knows one's explosure good or bad going into the transaction. Also, probablity is on the call seller's side. You are using the buyer of the call's greed to make money without having to be too greedy yourself. However, buying calls can be a real money maker so I do not mean to put (no pun intended) down all buyers of calls as being unreasonable risk takers. I expect I may post here from time to time if I can be of any help to others. Of course, I am always learning more and understanding how much I don't know. Best regards, Bob
