I've been having a heck of a time finding a partner to have some unprotected sex with, though the heroin and day trades have been very easy to come by.

It's so boringly predictable that the Boomers who write articles like that one have reached the (st)age where they start poo-pooing the behavior they pursued in their youth: weren't free love and drugs what the 60's were all about? Now they're all fixated on their 401Ks and read Barron's religiously... rebels no more.

Hi TraderAlan; A question, for the thread, about support and resistance levels... What effect does a stock split have on them?

P.S. Regarding risk taking... I don't think daytraders are particularly risk oriented people. I always make sure that I get my heroin from the same guy. This eliminates much of the risk, as I can always be sure it is cut with the same amount of extenders, and that I won't suddenly find myself with a couple grams of an extender that I am allergic to. For newbies, start with a very small dose, so small it will have very little effect, then work up to a therapeutic amount. Perfectly safe.

So the amount of risk you get from these sort of activities depends on the precautions you take. On the other hand, unprotected sex can ruin you completely. The secret is to never let the counterparty know who you are, or be able to locate you again. Otherwise, you could end up being made to support your children, or possibly spend time in jail.
