<<Winners never quit; quitters never win; >> Okay, but then why do they say to quit while you're ahead? Or is it quit when you're a head singing I ain't got nobody. <<but people who never quit and never win are idiots.">> That reminds me of the saying, doing an act over and over while expecting different results is a sign of insanity. That one come to mind when I'm trying to get a nut on a bolt in some blind, hard to reach spot and have dropped it 25 times. <<I agree with that. I don't believe this persistence crap, where you've pulled back from quitting six times and you're still trying to invest. 2.5 years, and I have nothing to show. LESS than nothing.>> At least you ain't into farming. That's where you buy everything retail and sell at wholesale. <<And get skin cancer.>> I get those. Used to be the freeze off kind, now they are cutting them out. The current thinking it's from sun damage before we're 25. I had a friend develop one on his shoulder last year. He was dead a month later. I take them seriously now.
