"They get more out of me in my 12 to 14 hour days than I'll bet you gave in a full week." I'll bet you're wrong. That's why I'm only 42 and largely retired and you're not. I still do some consulting work from time to time but that's it. Want to know how I did it? I didn't invest in speculative high risk stocks like GUMM.

"It is my understanding that it is difficult or impossible to borrow GUMM right now." Interestingly, this has been the case for nearly every single scam stock Bill has put out a short sell rec on at some point in their trading cycles. That's why Bill and others often take their positions early during a stock's run up. If you wait to catch the top, you miss the chance to take a position all together. You just have to be ready f to endure a squeeze or two before the price eventually collapses. In fact, I have NEVER come across a stock whose short interest was so large that it became impossible to borrow where the stock didn't eventually collapse. Strange coincidence? I think not. I guess the fact that you can't borrow GUMM anymore means there are an awful lot of people out there that lack the "intellectual capacity" that you and Howie have for understanding the "value" of GUMM.
