maurice, there is a misunderstanding on your part, and i remind you, we, all of us, are in a game where we did not make the rules, cannot be sure of the setup, cannot quit, cannot camp out on null positions that are in all cases non-existent, are not allowed to win consistently, can die many ways, and cannot quit, until we die, at which time, if we did not make the proper preparations, much will be taken away by the representatives of the electorates
in the game, the sporting rule is that the market will ruin the most by the harshest way at the least convenient time, out of duty
we have a choice, though, and that is to read the writing on the wall, or on our forehead, or on the tag tied around our big toe
cb ilaine chooses, deliberately, for the last way
and i have been trying to save her from herself, to no utility, as she clearly stated and i paraphrase, that even if she knows a particular monetary asset will go up in value, she would not buy it - while that statement is not equal to 'i will always buy the losing proposition', it comes might close, because when she refuses to trade the certain loser for the sure winner, she is buying the loser, every day, allowing herself to be looted, and looted good, proper, fair, and just. |
