A guide to bear market etiquette:

1. Don't whistle "I'm In the money", nor sing, especially if you slip with
your puts and follow it up with "deep in the money".

2. Only buy new cars. You wouldn't want to accidently drive up in your
coworker's repo.

3. Play dumb when taking messages from his broker, just write down From: Mr.
Margin [X] Please call.

4. Learn to recover from the occasional slip up. E.g. when you accidentally
say you're short selling reply that "No, I meant I trade before I put my
pants on in the morning".

5. Avoid saying "Cha-Ching!" and waving your arms when a coworker announces
a major index is down double digits.

6. If an acquaintance says that he has had to put the family pet asleep,
don't accept offers to dine at a local Korean restaurant.

7. As a successful investor, avoid the use of four letter words in public.
Such as MSFT, INTC, CSCO, WCOM, DELL, SUNW...

8. Do not give ursine toys as gifts. At least check with the parents to
avoid problems with nightmares.

9. Go on a crash diet so you to can achieve the newly popular "famished"
look.

10. When your business is closing, at least try to appear sad so you can
commiserate with the rest of your team. Do not talk about your plans, or
make it sound like you are flying to Palm springs to find a new job.
