OT Detail-MD. I am one of those that made a lot of money on options--almost exclusively on MSFT (thanks to the DOJ). My returns in last 14 months are over 200 times my initial investment of February 1998. I won't disclose how much I started with but it was mine and my wife's retirement accounts and some other savings. I got lucky but don't want to risk it anymore. My point was that consideration should be given to even putting aside at least 50% as a safe holding so that a market crash or internet stock crash could not change your lifestyle is a good idea. Even if you don't think it will happen---it is still worth considering.

I wish you continued success.
