This guy's wife sounds like I'm (bless her heart). Last year ago I told mine that I bought AOL for her personal IRA account (she allows me to manage it). She had a blow-out fit. 'John, how could you risk my money that way!!! ...Don't you know that there is an Internet bubble?!!?!....everyone one knows that...I'm very disappointed in you' So, you'd think my wife would be happy today after making +301.28% on AOL stock; and, I would look like an investment star to her.....NO WAY. 'John, why didn't you invest my money sooner in AOL... have you any idea how much I would have now if you had bought it as an IPO... I would have...$bla bla bla'. You can't win but you keep on trying. (I don't mean to be male pig. I'm sure there are examples of this both ways along gender lines. I just think my particular story is funny.) -John Guild
