That's all very well for you, who apparently have a money pump in your back yard, but with me, every morning I report to Countess Nihil that we have made an immense gain on CSCO, INTC, IMNX, PCCLF or whatever and she says "Show me the money!" and I have to say it won't be here for 3 days and if I sell we'll have to pay 54 % tax so we can't sell. Or I'll come in and say that luckily the NASDAQ has plunged 10 per cent and I have bought thousands of shares that are on sale, and I will have to borrow a few hundred thousands for a few months by activating half a dozen credit card transfers on those handy little 2.99% checks (brokers won't take them, I have to launder them through my home equity account if you can get the money out before the Countess blows it paying bills or at the thriftshop buying cheap Indian art.) She screams that we can't afford to get much richer at this rate and blubbers into her slivowitz, but apparently central European women don't understand finance very well (which is why central Europe is in such crummy financial condition.) Thank God American men understand finance so well.
