Hi Cobalt, in some ways, i think the Yachts book is the funniest book i have ever read, not just on the market, but the funniest book period...

i like the 'sell to whom' bit and the chapter on options, how there are more possibilities than a kid has with a Meccano set...i also like his thoughts on accounting, particularly the father who started with a push-cart and says everything over and above the original push-cart is profit. And there is the bit about how the only think a broker does not know about a stock is when it will enter chapter 11...and of course the bit of how the broker is watching the stock so much his eyes begin to bug out...

I'm glad i got at least on si person to consider the book !
