redivorce
There is no doubt that, in this country at least, men get financially devastated by the divorce courts: I guess it's MAYBE ok if the man wanted the divorce, but extremely unfair when the woman wants the divorce and wants to be supported too. You are right, in many cases the mortgage becomes a noose around a man's neck.

I was so frustrated today. I had decided to buy back some calls I'd sold on gmst (had to leave the ones go I sold at strike 60, just too much loss) There was no news today and the market was so-so so I was sure GMST would stay around 69-70 and I could buy them back at around 50c. Instead it would have been nice to be buying those calls today,and then selling them ) just for the day. I ended up buying them back around 5, and since I got 7 for them, it wasn't the profit it could have been. Could not believe the strength in gmst today: it will probably collapse Monday, right?
Sigh.

LOL, Volt! HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Very well said. Ultimate margin call. Old gardeners. Speaking of which, you folks over there in the East out of your drought?
