Re this Message 32987138 puzzle the jack asked a few questions this morning over breakfast

(3) "will I lose real money if I lose?" "no"
(4) "okay, I want to bet all on DRD Call, 19th February strike-15 at 1.50" "6,000 + shares?" "yes" "okay, just because you figured it out"
The Coconut has not yet decided.
So, no, I probably do not have to be concerned about the Jack. He just needs to marry some girl w/ capital. The coconut is worrisome, but she is busy so takes a bit more time.
He also just won against all other players (Sunday he gets IT time) in Call of Duty Mobile platformed on Tencent (WeChat's parent company) against other players in Battle Royale Alcatraz, hiding most of the time, and finishing off 7 players w/ use of machine gun.
Yeah, he gave himself the call sign ;0/
