<<I found my using margin was similar to thinking that I had money in the bank if I had checks left in my check book. However after finishing the 12 step program I came off of margin 6 days ago and have been clean for 6 full days.>>

Dealer: I love your sense of humor....I have been off margin for over 6 months....Unfortunately I had to learn an expensive lesson during the sell-off we had in the Fall of 1997....In this volatile environment I prefer to operate without margin -- Yet, at times it is tempting to load up on a GREAT stock when its really on sale...;-)

Good luck with your recovery....Take it one day at a time and soon you'll love 'the margin-free feeling'...

Best Regards,

Scott
