what is all this ? why are people buying overpriced tech stocks on margin ? if you owned these businesses outright, would the bank give you a loan on the business no questions asked ? $ 160,000 ? how come this person didn't blow the wad in las vegas ? i think that would be more fun. and why is everyone following William H ? doesn't Warren B have a few more bucks to his name ? how do you know that wall street ain't gonna f8ck the margin clowns again next week, or the week after ? ps. i'd buy gold...
