I once opened a Chinese fortune cookie that read, "Others will learn from your example."

There are probably people who were not even BORN in 1987 who are starting to invest. Anyone born in 1970 and who has paid any attention to the Dow has seen it increase tenfold, and has heard every sort of "how I got rich on the market" story.

Thirty-five is not a bad age to go broke at. Fifty is worse. The best age to go broke, however, is about 25. This is the wonderful legacy that we are leaving to the young: the inestimable privilege of going broke at an early age. What a lucky cohort! And they will also see their parents going broke and living on whatever is left of Social Security, and that, too, will be a great lesson to them. What wonderful folks: sacrificing their own well-being so that their children can learn from their example!
