Were you in that 10% before you gambled away your life savings on a single penny stock? How long did it take you to save all that money because it probably didn't take too long to squander it? Oh well... easy come, easy go!

But for argument sake let's take the other side, what would you have done had your "investment" idea panned out? Were you gambling for others as a magnanimous altruist or would you have greedily kept those gains for yourself? Better yet, have you or do you donate to charity? What percentage of your total income (pre tax or after tax dollars, whichever you prefer) do you or have you donated to charity? Or do you prefer a powerful centralized bureaucracy to tax and redistribute according to your liberal mores?

Always a hoot to read your posts, carry on and good luck!
